dailylurker Posted July 6, 2022 Share Posted July 6, 2022 No mention of the flood watch for the DC metro area? HRRR looks interesting for DC later. NAM3K is more interesting for just about everyone.

The HRRR has some smaller cells (nothing too impressive looking) for the metros. Thinking it *could* be distantly similar to the other day when things looked kind of lame and then cells kept training over MoCo. Maybe not to that degree but there could be training or backbuilding I'd think. Think that Flood Watch is more to cover the isolated cases of urban flooding or small creeks that inevitably occur in any storm that lasts more than 10 minutes. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I almost feel I could create a localized cell if I open my air conditioned home and cause condensation from the temp differential! That being said, I see the puffs now on the satellite and the isolated cells so we must have hit critical temp points to start some action. That looks especially true for any areas that were really clear for a bit and likely hottest. 86 with a DP of 72 here in Purcellville. The air is thick!

Seems like they're fairly confident in an evolution like the 3kNAM has of the Ohio MCS making it over the mountains and re-strengthening after midnight.

A bit OT - but it would be really cool to have a model that was similar to the HRRR where the domain was not the entire country but small regions. Smaller region I'd assume would let it be run more frequently or at a higher resolution. Get a data assimilation system in place that allows for realllllllly good data at the start. Could be fun to see how something like that would perform as a regular part of the forecast models. I know some places (Millersville University had one) have WRFs that they run on their own...but talking more about something at the NCEP level. Though I'm aware that better resolution doesn't always mean better accuracy 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lucketts Life Posted July 6, 2022 Share Posted July 6, 2022 Just caught a good 10 minutes of heavy rain. Humidity at its finest (or worst) now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
09-10 analogy Posted July 6, 2022 Share Posted July 6, 2022 These past two days have been disgustingly yukky. I know we've had hot weather this year but it seems the humidity hasn't been as bad as per usual. I've usually acclimated to the typical DC summer miserable mugs by early July, but I've really been put out by the sheer ooziness of the past few days. Hopefully one of these training storms will give me a good light show in a bit, make up for it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
