Alert for this woke me up before the thunder would have. No tornado but gusty and plenty of T&L.   2" exactly in the gauge.

I got kinda lucky here. Just to the south of me was in a split zone. Last I checked some nearby gauges showed 0.5” with upwards of 0.75” to the north, though that was only from one wave. The funny thing is even though the last several days were productive here, the larger totals still seem to be generally further south and east. I was in and around Bethesda yesterday and the grass was noticeably greener, though last night’s downpour should help around here.

We *just* got clipped on the very southern end by the last cell that popped in Fairfax County at about 10:00pm. Probably about 0.1" total on the day, which was a little disappointing given all the action just north and west of us.

About 1.75" total for the last week. Not bad, not great, but definitely not bad.
