nw baltimore wx Posted October 4, 2022 Share Posted October 4, 2022 Is this radar accurate? I’ve never seen anything like it. Rain developing on a line over land. It looks like a lake effect radar without the water. And in the wrong direction. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
North Balti Zen Posted October 4, 2022 Share Posted October 4, 2022 It's so wonderfully strange. And once this line passes there's another one around 11:00 up our way apparently. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it might be related to the "spokes" of vorticity rotating around the upper low, some of which are quite small in scale. Saw a similar radar return over here last night(or the night before), hard to remember as it has become like ground hog day with the rain lol. Here is a panel from the 18z NAM just to illustrate- 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mulch is done, but with the sun fully down, the grass and roads under the trees are doing their best. Won’t be long. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

midatlanticweather Posted October 5, 2022 Share Posted October 5, 2022 I was fringed! OK by it though... but if this had been a snow storm - I would have been crying with my inch of snow today! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CAPE Posted October 5, 2022 Share Posted October 5, 2022 4.12" Probably not much more today. Its been awhile since the forecast has read ' less than a tenth of an inch'. Looking forward to sun and low 70s tomorrow. Been ages! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
North Balti Zen Posted October 5, 2022 Share Posted October 5, 2022 I think we can generally tip the hat to the models that showed the high rain totals piling up over multiple days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mattie g Posted October 5, 2022 Share Posted October 5, 2022 This has been a truly odd past five days of weather. I don't recall anything quite so long in duration with such chilly temps. The killer is that our girls have had a stomach bug since Sunday, so no one is particularly happy about being stuck at home right now! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks! They're slowly getting there, but man this has sucked! I don't quite recall October 2009, but I'll just assume we're headed into another winter like the one that followed that month. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jacindc Posted October 5, 2022 Share Posted October 5, 2022 I arrived back in DC on Friday about an hour before the rain started. After 14 weeks in Wyoming where I saw maybe an inch of rain tops over the entire time, I feel like I'm growing moss. 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kgottwald Posted October 5, 2022 Share Posted October 5, 2022 I thought it was supposed to be clearing up by now. Still socked in with drizzle. Yesterday Tysons/Vienna actually had no rain except brief sprinkles now and then, and I thought it was almost over. Rain bands moving from east to west look ugly and unnatural.

IronTy Posted October 5, 2022 Share Posted October 5, 2022 This mist just won't quit. I did see some lighter skies for about 20min and the temp has warmed to a balmy 57F so at least there's progress. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now see, I've just started to warm up to the idea of having kids one day, but this is the one thing I dread the most by far...I'd be no good and curled up in a ball of emetophobia, lol Glad they're starting to feel better!
