Another very gusty afternoon it looks like coming up this Tuesday w/ steep 0-2km LRs and 1-2km winds into the 40s(kts)... at least on the HRRR. Got to imagine that other CAMs are fairly similar.

Good catch.  Timing is ideal with the winds swinging through at mid afternoon peak surface heating.  3km NAM has it too.

Now some CAMs have up to 200+J/kg CAPE w/ steep LLLRs when the front moves through between midday and 3pm tomorrow. Some CAMs develop showers along/near said front. Given the thermodynamics and kinematics in place I would think there could be enhanced wind gusts, particularly w/ any heavier showers that form. Some smail hail would also looks possible w/ the most intense showers, along with a lightning bolt or two. Shower potential increases the further north you are in the area.

Would be pretty amazing if our biggest frozen event this winter was actually a hail storm

It got breezy for sure, but not sure if the wind really produced as advertised. At least in Frederick, I’ve seen windier days here. I will say that the dry air moving in is felt…dews are low and I’m pretty sure my allergies have been kicking in the last few days, which is kinda ridiculous. I wouldn’t mind some snow in March to offset that a little bit.
