Felt like a wall of humidity walking outside early this morning. Currently 77/76 and rain showers. Moist.

84/75 Sultry

Doesn't look much much until late tomorrow into tomorrow evening. Maybe some elevated stuff tomorrow evening and overnight from the system lifting north from the Mid Atlantic.

Tomorrow looks prime for multiple wet microbursts. I suspect we see an upgrade to slight at some point.

Radar looks juicy for Anne Arundel county. Hoping some sneaks into SE HoCo

Third warmest June on record right behind the last two years.

The 3K has some over NJ like the HRRR but the rest of the area doesn't have much today or even tomorrow verbatim

South Florida-ass airmass.

Holy crap’olies looking at my PWS and while only 81 out the humidity is 84% with a dew point of 75.7

Getting a shower/downpour now

And the nam? Has very little today

The last time the hrrr was right was 1987

Despite running well ahead of normal with already 3 NS, the ACE through July 6th is still only at 1.46 vs the 1951-2024 avg of 4.12! That is lower than 46 of those 74 years. I’ll now compare to other years since 1951 with 3+ NS by July 6th along with their ACE: Year: NS/ACE 1954: 3/8.56 1959: 4/7.18 1968: 3/13.54 2005: 4/5.84 2012: 4/11.2 2016: 4/6.85 2017: 3/3.18 2020: 5/7.24 2021: 5/10.59 2023: 3/8.62 2024: 3/32.57 2025: 3/1.46 Note that for these 12 seasons since 1951 with 3+ NS by July 6th, the year 2025 has by far the lowest ACE/storm (0.49)! That easily beats the 2nd lowest, 2017’s 1.06/storm. The highest is 2024’s 10.86/storm. The avg of these 12 seasons through July 6th is ~2.8 ACE/storm.

Getting back into the swing of things here after a splendid 4th of July weekend. Low of only 73, as humidity seems to be the name of the game this week. We've actually had some decent showers going here for most of the morning. It will be interesting to see who gets the big rain totals this week.

It’s been raining lightly here for the last 45 minutes, and it looks like a plume of enough juice to keep it going off and on for awhile.

This happened in the middle of the night, the storms stalled out because there’s no trough nearby to expedite getting Barry’s remnants out, and the terrain/rock hard ground problem exacerbated it. It had zero to do with “weather modification”. I wasn’t paying enough attention to see if the NWS dropped the ball and the funding cuts are obviously a huge outrage and problem, but this is KNOWN to be a major problem in Central TX especially. There was 16” of rain in one morning in Austin from the remnants of Hurricane Patricia in Oct 2015 which is bar none the heaviest rain I’ve ever seen. Likely even puts Ida to shame. The Austin to San Antonio corridor is known to get tons of rain in a short period of time, but is otherwise pretty dry. And when it falls over the limestone Hill Country, it rampages down the hills into small creeks and as we see here, even the larger rivers can be overwhelmed fast.

The NWS has issued a flood watch for today and a heat advisory for tomorrow. There is a growing threat of flash flooding for some spots across the area. Forecast models have been a bit inconsistent on exactly where these will be so will be keeping an eye on those radars. We should remain warm and humid all week with the hottest day being tomorrow where some lower elevation spots may touch the low 90's. Ridge locations will likely fall just short of 90. We turn a bit cooler but still humid by the end of the week with temperatures a few degrees below normal during the afternoons but a few degrees above normal at night.

Back to having the feeling like rain is imminent only to have nothing to show for it.

Hoping for one of those types of storms today or tomorrow, minus the tragedy of course. Yeah 80 people, so sad. Keeps going up every time I look.

Looks like there will be some storms training over the same area sw of nyc and down into pa (if hrrr is right)

Looking at some of those river gauges the rises were unimaginable...so many gauges that literally shot up like 20 feet in less than an hour. Absolutely horrific.

79/74 with some sun. Steambath

Wow, I just saw that the death toll in that Texas flood is over 80 now. It’s crazy to have a death toll that high from flooding in a relatively small area. The water must’ve come in like a wall.

Cape May, N.J. has the same dew point as Key West and Miami Beach currently at 78. Scanning up and down the East Coast 78 DP was the highest I could find presently.
