SW corner of the meso. I know what that means...

Wedges into DC?

That cell down in Bedford looks interesting. Not in the area but looks like it had good rotation at a point.

Watch out for most of LWX until 10pm

i'm under a warning now. all the storms from the last few days have missed me. maybe i'll get some rain from this one.

 

As a fellow area who has been missed you give me some hope of some rain today.

they've mostly missed my area as well (got fringed saturday, but did catch the downpours heading towards emmitsburg that day).  I'm liking what I see on the radar right now.

Orientation of the line coming out of WV certainly lends credence to the flood watch.

Kind of spicy wording for the I-95 corridor from WPC (https://www.wpc.ncep.noaa.gov/metwatch/metwatch_mpd_multi.php?md=528&yr=2022)

Hydrologocally: Thunderstorms along the warm front continue to
translate northward across CT into MA away from best instability
due to persistent cloud cover, but have set the stage for wetting
the grounds for additional upstream development; while other
deeply saturated soil conditions exist across Central MD into
portions of Northern VA per NASA SPoRT 10-40cm relative soil
moisture ratios around 45-60% and AHPS indicating areas of
300-500% of normal.  These area would be more at risk as well.  As
such, flash flooding is considered possible through the length of
the MPD has a whole, but there will be isolated instances of flash
flooding through the evening.

getting pretty dark to the west.

[87storms]

yea, i'm not gonna be dodging this one.  starting to hear thunder in the distance.  this is gonna be a banger.

[aldie 22]

[87storms]

[Mrs.J]

Yea I think that is the part that came through here. 

[87storms]

this one might actually be severe by the book.  had some real healthy gusts move through and still going.  pouring here still.

i think there were at least realistically 50mph gusts at peak here, maybe higher.  hard to tell from inside, but it this was a patio chair mover.  only thing missing was hail.

This is my favorite storm so far this year, at least for daytime. Really nice wind driven heavy rain with decent, but not over-the-top lighting+thunder. [pretty intense flash just now as I type though]

[Lucketts Life]

Caught this on Rt. 15 right before the show started. Plenty of rain now.

yea, the lighting is still going here even after the torrents moved through.  I think things are chillin' out though.  Definitely a premium grade storm here.

[Mrs.J]

My PWS is at 1.06” out of just that line. Still raining too. 

[Interstate]

Here we go again... hopefully we do not get 70+ MPH winds... BGE is still working in my area to restore power.

 

[aldie 22]

gonna be so dang close here
