87storms Posted July 12 Share Posted July 12 Seeing precip flowing off the Atlantic in July isn’t the most common occurrence. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rhino16 Posted July 12 Share Posted July 12 It’s strange. The reflectivities over me are about 26 dBZ, but the rain seems to be coming at a decent rate. Still patchy showers though. Taking whatever I can get. Hasn’t rained anything meaningful since the 4th. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CAPE Posted July 12 Share Posted July 12 1 hour ago, 87storms said: Seeing precip flowing off the Atlantic in July isn’t the most common occurrence. Stalled frontal boundary, location on the western side of a strong high anchored over the Atlantic, and an upper level disturbance tracking northward in the flow to further enhance lift. Should be some prolific rainfall rates at times with that setup. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

toolsheds Posted July 12 Share Posted July 12 Was happy to hear the rain outside this morning. From the looks of radar, I might keep under that narrow band of rain coming up the Carroll/Frederick County border for a little while. Choo Choo!

BlizzardNole Posted July 12 Share Posted July 12 1 hour ago, Terpeast said: Looking optimistic for rain. Radar looks decent, and all models show at least 1" imby That's good as I'm to your NE. That thin training band has been undulating back and forth but mostly staying just east. I can see clear sky looking up towards Frederick Echoing what others noted -- the rain comes heavier than it looks on radar. Some real efficient rain makers 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully they can score soon. Heavy rain seems to fade as it comes north out of southern MD. Still nothing here in AA County. Fingers crossed it actually rains. Edit: it's actually raining. A beautiful, steady, moderate rain. I'm going to go for a 7 mile hike today. No rain gear. Just going to enjoy the warm tropical rain. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wxdude64 Posted July 12 Share Posted July 12 Nothing water-wise here, and IF it happens probably won't be much. Of course, each raindrop counts once it gets dry... Currently partly cloudy and 63.6/60.2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MN Transplant Posted July 12 Share Posted July 12 Sure would have been nice if this was a big shield of rain instead of distributed convective elements, but that wasn’t in the cards. Just a trace so far. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

midatlanticweather Posted July 12 Share Posted July 12 So hard to watch all that rain fizzle out as it gets closer to Loudoun. I was so encouraged by the radar earlier only to see things dry up and not really make it into the county. Painful for the rain starved. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dailylurker Posted July 12 Share Posted July 12 Reminds me of winter. Dry air to the north killing precip as it moves north. Just watered the garden. We all know the drill. Crazy how drought drives more drought. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlexD1990 Posted July 12 Share Posted July 12 Bands of heavy rain and VERY loud thunderstorms all night over here. Woke us and the dog up a few times overnight. between bands right now, but most of the local area has seen 1.5-2.5" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
