CAPE Posted March 16 Share Posted March 16 Winds have been 20-25 with gusts of 30 since around noon here. Sun making an appearance now. 70/60 currently. Noticed this area is now in the marginal risk for severe. Nothing earlier. Little warmer/juicier than forecast perhaps. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We never seem to get significant rain from basic front passages so I'm taking the under unless something big shows up on radar. West to east precipitation i would agree. The front isn't blasting through and the storms and rain looks like it's training from south to north. Someone will probably get a soaker. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm looking at the southern edge of the line to the west disintegrate over the mountains though. Maybe it redevelops after it gets past the Appalachians but it's not very inspiring to me at the moment. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Prob will get some showers once the colder air filters in, but seems like instability is lacking. I’m rocking a short sleeve shirt today…feels awesome.

frd Posted March 16 Share Posted March 16 52 mph wind gust moments ago, crazy, stuff flying everywhere outside. Looking at clearing line moving ENE rapidly. Temps should respond. Southern area of storms look to miss me to my South, atmosphere may be more primed for the later storms. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Local stations have recorded gusts in the 30s here, but looking at the treetops on my property gusts have to be 40+ just off the surface. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mrs.J Posted March 16 Share Posted March 16 75 over on Furnace Mountain in VA This rain forecast all day has been tough. But decided to leave my friend’s Minis naked in hopes that any rain we may get will be brief. They have a shed roof they can get under. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CAPE Posted March 16 Share Posted March 16 Notably missing this Spring is the sound of peepers, which usually starts in late Feb. So dry. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scraff Posted March 16 Share Posted March 16 This is literally the funniest forecasted day of rain I can remember! It’s like effing Boxing Day with “rain”. I couldn’t clasp my hands together and squeeze a drop of liquid out of any cloud. Dry AF! Well….next? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean the same winter trend basically (except northeast does a bit better). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
