CAPE Posted April 1, 2023 Share Posted April 1, 2023 Decent thunderstorm just moved through with a super close lightning strike. Tripped a breaker. Wasn't expecting that this morning. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kmlwx Posted April 1, 2023 Share Posted April 1, 2023 Loud thunder early this morning here in Colesville. Woke me up and I was surprised to see a decent radar signature. PWS picked up 7 nearby lightning strikes (first detection of the year!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nw baltimore wx Posted April 1, 2023 Share Posted April 1, 2023 Gusty here. I just called BGE because my power is flickering in the higher gusts, but it’s not happening to my neighbors. I’m playing it safe by unplugging the computer. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even a smaller one will at least shield it better than a standard surge suppressor to the blips during high wind. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kmlwx Posted April 1, 2023 Share Posted April 1, 2023 Looks like areas near Hagerstown, Frederick, Westminster and similar place sin N Central MD are getting breaks in the clouds already. Most of the models are still not super enthused about pumping dews up. I am at 60 degrees on the temp AND dew right now. If we can hold in the lower 60s for dews - perhaps we can sneak some storms in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure we can get excitement locally today. My dewpoint is starting to come down a bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We had so many issues in the past that we actually went a step further and installed a whole house surge suppressor on our panel. Has been a good investment. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mesoscale Discussion 0428 NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 1015 AM CDT Sat Apr 01 2023 Areas affected...eastern Ohio into western Pennsylvania and New York Concerning...Severe potential...Watch likely Valid 011515Z - 011745Z Probability of Watch Issuance...95 percent SUMMARY...Storms producing damaging winds appear increasingly likely today, beginning over eastern Ohio and moving quickly into parts of New York and Pennsylvania. DISCUSSION...Satellite imagery shows strong heating occurring over the region, with storms beginning to form ahead of the cold front/vort max. Despite low dewpoints, very steep deep-layer lapse rates, strong shear and substantial mixing of high winds aloft will likely yield wind gusts in excess of 50 kt over much of the area. As such, a watch is likely, and the outlook will feature a 30% severe wind probability. ..Jewell/Guyer.. 04/01/2023 ...Please see www.spc.noaa.gov for graphic product...
