Man the thunder is awesome right now under the wedge. Sounds like the beach on a Friday night with constant bass.

Sky is lit up right now. Let’s see if I can remember by METAR. Currently FRQ LTGICCG

just heard thunder. Hold me, @weatherwiz

Nice cell heading towards me. I was wrong

Just had a close CG as I watch from the garage where the anemometer sits on the roof with a 25ft pole.

Yeah anything past the hobbyist level you really pay for. I had 0.02” this morning so figured I was good. There must’ve been a really good one on the side that got dislodged by the +RA. Torn between toothpicking the hole when it’s done or just letting it saturate through. Toothpicking would give me some error since I’d miss some tips. I forgot to put the stratus out there too. Batting 1.000 tonight

Are you going to the game in Dallas?

Yeah. Plus 2.5" hail a bit NW of there in Wise Co. I've been seeing it out the window every few mins. Big Ben kids... Parliament (kudos to anyone getting that reference)

58 knots KDTO

I love these laser disdrometers for that reason. Plus they can estimate liquid water content of snow pretty well without taking a core. But the flip side is I just dropped 11 grand for that plus the data logger and the enclosure. So not really practical.

Range folding literally bisected the little "couplet", or at any rate, g2g shear region, on ENX. Box wasn't range folded I don't think but you're right that the radar is pretty useless for what could be, theoretically speaking, some low level spinup. As for me I've been in a holding pattern around storms in the DFW area for the last hour. Glad we had a lot of gas or we'd have diverted to Little Rock by now.

Rain gauge plugged with shit. Of course.

Bad weather man smart landscaper .lol

Thought the convection would peter out before making it here as we’re still wedged, but we’re about to get drenched. It almost looks like it refired along the wedge boundary.

Range folding going on. That’s a tough spot though for rotation from the radar sites

Well, compared to the 48° progged for me Monday and the 48° for Thursday, it’s gorgeous.

Wiped out the apple crop here. Tough to do.

Hopefully it’s not all used up! I can’t take another 98° 0 wind day on the water.

Ummm

I want it to rain all weekend. Too busy at work that weekend.

It was so damn windy the annual Rappahanock Rivah Regatta had to stay off the water today. Sailboats. Too much wind in late May... when we're almost always concerned with too little. Lol

We were mid 20s 5/18/23. Wiped out the peach crop for the season. You had to be close to freezing there.

Yes what’s the problem ?

interesting rotation near Northampton

Picked up .16” of rain from showers that popped up. Along with a 35mph wind gust.
