Looks like the mod risk for heavy rainfall was expanded to the south and east for Frederick, Carroll, and extreme NW Montgomery County. Kind of surprised there isn't a flood watch up there.

We had flood watches for rain that never even happened. A tropical storm comes and crickets lol. 

Seems like a batch of steadier light rain is trying to develop over my area as I type this.

Flood Watch expanded eastwards through most of the area.

Rain comes down more intense than it looks on Radarscope.  I got a shot of moderate rain under light greens.  Makes me wonder what it's like under the yellows and oranges along the Howard/MoCo border 

Damascus has been hit with waves of heavy rain. The yellows have been very heavy. I’m about 2 mi from the HoCo border.

Whoa you have just a firehose aimed at your area!  I am just on the edge of it with off and on mod rain and I am fine with that

I’m glad there is rain hitting your area as well. It has been more like heavy rain with occasional periods of very light rain here.
