Lows in the 40s in the mountains! And highs in the upper 60s to low 70s. Taste of September. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A slow moving cold front will impact our region Wednesday through early Thursday morning. A continued unstable environment with CAPE between 2000 and 3000 j/kg will interact with forcing provided by the frontal passage to produce scattered showers and thunderstorms on Wednesday. PW's are forecast to maximize between 2 and 2.5 inches with storm motions being relatively low. Based on the slow nature of the frontal passage along with current model trends, it seems the main storm/flooding threat will occur later in the day on Wednesday and continue into the late evenings periods. The combination of forcing from the front along with PW's around 2.3 inches and slow storm motions will lead to an increased threat for flooding on Wednesday. Although the flooding risk will be the bigger threat for Wednesday, a combination of good forcing along the front and favorable CAPE will likely mean there will be risk for strong to severe storms as well. Global and hires guidance still has some disagreements on the overall coverage/location of storms,but they all agree that there will a risk for rain rates of 2 to 3 inches per hour with storm totals above 4 inches possible. The threat for showers and thunderstorms capable of producing heavy rain will continue into the early morning periods of Thursday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MN Transplant Posted August 9, 2022 Share Posted August 9, 2022 Today is the 7th 95+ at DCA. Since the move to the current river location, the long-term average is ~9, so we are probably ahead of pace by a bit, but it is going to start getting tougher to achieve climatologically after this nice cooldown. By all accounts, this is a very average summer. Plain, boring mid-Atlantic hot and humid. In the past 20 years, only 5 summers have had >10 days of 95+, but they were some all-timers. 2012: 29 2010: 27 2011: 24 2016: 23 2019: 15 By the way, 2003 and 2004 had no 95+ days. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nw baltimore wx Posted August 9, 2022 Share Posted August 9, 2022 The front moved through Watkins Glen this morning with some rain showers, so we stayed in the tent reading and napping. By 10AM, rain stopped, breeze kicked up, and dews dropped. It’s been a glorious day here around Seneca Lake, NY, with a high of 73. 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WinterWxLuvr Posted August 9, 2022 Share Posted August 9, 2022 I’ve always been a believer that in hot weather you don’t want a wet lawn. Yeah it’ll stay green but I think that’s when problems start. Dry and brown doesn’t look great but it also doesn’t hurt your grass. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
