There's just a general "light roar" outside my home office window right now. Geez. yep - that's exactly what it is. Just sounds like there's a plane chilling above us. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stormy Posted January 9 Share Posted January 9 3 minutes ago, pazzo83 said: lol what The US Geological Survey at 3:15 pm gives the following data for the D.C. Little Falls Pump Station on the Potomac. Gage height 3.90 Ft. 24 hrs. ago gage height 3.55' . Up about 5 inches. Downstream from DC runoff I would guesstimate a 1 ft. increase. But strong s and se winds are producing a backswell rise from the bay. High tide at Alexandria is coming at 6 pm. This exacerbates the problem.

Warm Nose Posted January 9 Share Posted January 9 Wind so far has not mixed down here at all. My max gust all day has been around 6mph on my PWS. Up to 1.85in on the rain gauge with some pretty hefty rates right now. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nw baltimore wx Posted January 9 Share Posted January 9 41 minutes ago, vastateofmind said: Haven't seen ponding like this IMBY for about a decade. And yeah, REAL worried about a power outage...as I'll be right there with you, @09-10 analogy, manually baling out my 2 foot deep sump pit for however long the power is out. Rain is forecasted to die down around midnight, but knowing my sump pump and seeing the standing water already, it'll be doing overtime for the next 24 hours. My backyard is in a state that I have never seen in the 20 years I’ve lived here. If I lose my sump pump tonight, there’s no doubt that my basement floods. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Random Chaos Posted January 9 Share Posted January 9 Mesoscale Precipitation Discussion 0007 NWS Weather Prediction Center College Park MD 236 PM EST Tue Jan 09 2024 Areas affected...Central MD...Central VA...North-central NC...DC Concerning...Heavy rainfall...Flash flooding likely Valid 091935Z - 100135Z SUMMARY...Prolonged moderate rain with some quick moving convective line further south, crossing saturated grounds likely to induce flooding conditions through the evening/ early overnight period. DISCUSSION...19z surface analysis and VWP network sfc to 925mb flow show warm front is starting to surge northeast under strong low level southeasterly flow transporting enhanced moisture from the western Atlantic feeder off the Sargasso Sea. CIRA LPW depict a sharp gradient in the lowest level in the vicinity of the the NC/SC line and generally where higher higher theta-E air and weak mid-level instability to help maintain quick moving convective line across currently from Rockingham to York/Union county NC. Combined with quick veering at the effective cold front, allows for total moisture flux into the column enough to support 1.5" totals in sub-hourly time frames (generaly 1"/15-20 minutes). This line of enhanced convection is starting to move into areas with reduced upper level soil capacity and lower FFG values across north-central NC into southern VA. As such, greater than normal runoff is likely to induce flooding, perhaps flashy initially before leading to a broader areal flooding that will impact more surrounding smaller/combining watersheds across the region, especially in urban locales. Further north, CIRA LPW values are reduced, but slug of 700-500mb mid-level moisture and favorable mid to upper-level divergence/diffluence should support moderate rainfall. Here, duration is going will be more likely to result in inducing broad areal flooding conditions across central to northern VA, central MD into south-central PA. Here, hourly FFG values are below 1" and are about .5"/hr in urban centers (which is likely to be exceeded as the main mid to upper-level height falls cross the area from WSW to ENE from 23-01z. Spotty totals of 1-2" are less likely to exceed 3hr FFG values, but still should be broad enough in exceedance to have solid confidence for likely flooding conditions this evening.
