Heard thunder and checked radar.  Have a little pop up  heading our way from Frederick along 70.

Got nicked by that little popup line about 30 minutes ago or so. Pleasant little surprise that should make things really f'ing muggy soon enough!

Same...we actually had a little thundery preview just before 9 a.m. and then the stronger cell that just nicked mattie just passed through here. Trying to figure out if that cell currently over Tysons is going to develop southward for Round #3 this morning -- I wouldn't be surprised, as the sky has that cheesy, yellow/grey-ish look all around us still.

This mornings convection appears to be developing off of an EML between ~850-750mb. 750mb fits pretty closely with where the cloud bases have been. (8,000+ft)

SPC mesoanalysis definitely has a bit of a remnant EML overhead.

Today demolished the multi-decade record for consecutive days with increasing daily minimum temp at my station. The old count (prior to this stretch) was 5, the new count is 8. I do not expect to ever see a longer such stretch here.

Pop up storm right over me

Yeah. My wife just got off work in the Hayfield area about 20 min ago and asked me if she had time to make a return at Springfield Town Center. Since the storm was mostly stationary around Centreville (based on radar at that point) I said, SURE! Now the T&L and heavier rain has quickly built in SE from the Centreville storm and STC (and her) are probably smack dab in the middle of it. Boy...am I gonna hear about THAT one.
