  2. Torch Tiger
    its 5-10mi. southwest of Gary
  3. ineedsnow
    doesn't look that close?
  4. DCAsnowhole
    On a super delayed plane at DCA. Listening to ground ATC they just said tower was shaking and ground surveillance radar went out! Plane is shaking! .
  5. DCAsnowhole started following 2026 Mid-Atlantic Severe Storm General Discussion
  6. yoda
    I guess so... just getting a lot of internal service errors no matter where I go on the NWS website past 15 minutes
  7. bdevil02
    Huge wind in Alexandria
  8. Jrlg1181
    0.00 for the day 0.00 for the month.. I64 corridor Staunton - Waynesboro to Charlottesville has had zero luck this month...
  9. NorthArlington101
    Bar doors getting blown open. Oh no!
  10. BobbyHolikWillFindYou
    Bets on where this line falls apart?
  11. Kmlwx
    I can't imagine their page is hosted onsite - but I may be wrong. Probably just coincidental.
  12. Kmlwx
    Actually even see a 75-76mph pixel on the LWX base reflectivity tilt.
  13. yoda
    Did LWX lose power? Not getting any updates from them and getting internal server errors on their webpage
  14. Torch Tiger
    Tornado warning and Tor otg near Gary IN
  15. Eskimo Joe
    Wow healthy 60 kt core just south of DCA.
  16. Kmlwx
    DCA is going to get rocked in a sec. Wind core almost heading right for the airport/Arlington. I see 70+mph pixels on LWX
  17. Eskimo Joe
    Agree 9/10 times. IMO, this is the 1 out of 10 times I'll differ given the numerous 250 Anniversary event from Baltimore to DC. In a situation like this, it's just easier to slap down a big polygon and say "it's coming everyone".
  18. ineedsnow
    it will be good.. I'll be in Atlantic City so something good will happen in SNE
  19. Kmlwx
    Any reason that it seems to be more prominent this season than prior ones? Or is that just recency bias?
  20. Eskimo Joe
    Two thoughts come to mind: 1.) These are machine learning/AI-influenced CAMS that don't yet have the "database" of events to properly articulate when these events die off. 2.) As we saw with April 2011 and the 2012 Derecho, mature MCS complexes persist longer than meso guidance if the downstream airmass is sufficiently unstable. However, the lack of an EML or good jet streak generally isn't enough to sustain the storms much past sunset. There is an eight part YouTube video from Rich Thompson (SPC met) speaking a Univ of Oklahoma and he talks about this extensively. I cannot find the YouTube series unfortunately.

    Our vantage point looks super similar - I could probably yell our "SNOWFAN" and you might hear it.
  22. nj2va
    Wind is here!
  23. Kmlwx
    It seems like LWX will warn a huge swath and then if an area of considerable or destructive nature shows itself they will put a warning inside of the warning. I can see it from both sides...I think they do it because of the metro corridor honestly.

    Don’t even have a severe yet. The fuel source is a bit elevated for tornadoes near 1-96, but we have a warm boundary layer this side of the lake, so the initial gusts could get crazy as the bow / comma pushes inland. The bottom thee rows definitely need the tornado watch as that area has decent surface based instability.
  25. wxmeddler
    Depth of the cold pool and surface inversions after the radiation flip over. I think the model cold pools are too shallow and/or the surface inversions are too deep.

    97 mi long? This kind of defeats the entire purpose of polygon *storm-based* warnings. We can do better than one giant "carpet bomb" SVR. There should be a limit to a size of a short-fused polygon warning. A large squall line is not necessarily "one-size fits all." And all that has to happened is one wind damage report anywhere in the polygon and it verifies. We should be fine-tuning and getting more detailed w/ warnings, not the other way around. There is real impact (economic and social) from over-warning.
