Under a Warning right now. My Delco sis just texted about it where she is in Upper Darby! Currently 77 with dp 64 . -
This is great, thank you!

Well that was fun. I got caught in the torrential downpour in Danbury and drove through it most of the way home as it pivoted and slid into a SW>NE line that set up just south and east of me. I got to watch it slide by, rumbling and grumbling while backlit by bright sun. Unfortunately I only got .12, not much help for the low soil moisture situation.

Gentle summer thunder shower last few hours. Great for the grass and seed.
-
About to start buster phase 2
-
I know these aren't the greatest but this is zoomed in base velocity from ENX and BOX on Wiz's location, and a BOX reflectivity shot for reference. Hard to see much, but if you had a plot of SRV you might see something a bit clearer given the storm is moving east pretty fast. Also Nexrad coverage sucks out here, so there's that. Looks like there might have been something also just S of CEF, but that little red speck is N of Paul.

I was wondering about that. Was watching radar and was saying to my husband anyone on 270 from Gaithersburg up to Urbana was getting slammed. Picked up 0.17” out of that line up here. Was non eventful the heavy stuff split me to the South and North.
-
Congrats to everyone who got in on the action but as usual with these west-east tracks, just a quick shower here. Hardly enough to wash away one of the many layers of pollen starting to build. Heck of a day though before the clouds started building!

27 drops so far but stuff percolating to the south for before midnight euro will win -
I was on my way home and just missed seeing it, but pretty good size hail and. 53" of rain in maybe 15 mins The hail triggered my Ring camera, so got to see it
-
As they should for the majority of the area. Just watch as the storms hit the coast in central NJ hit the water and disappear. I’ll be lucky to see 3 drops. My vehicle was so green with pollen before I had to drag the house out from the backyard and wash it.

Interesting looking sky off to my SW. Getting a few random drops. Sure looks like it’s getting ready to do stuff. 77F/DP 61F -
Lower Delaware and Southern, NJ with South winds above 20 mph. meanwhile my area and nearby locations with firm SW winds. Interesting.
-
I'll little that down to just any hail. Seems to be hard to come by in the city. But others have said something about the bay.
-
Just saw this. Where I was at the time is probably just a bit in the northwestern side of the location market
-
Adding...of course if you compare all areas vs your tiny area. You're going to get a sense that hail is "tons more common" but you need to compare your slice of land to a similar sized plot to get any accurate apples to apples comparison.
-
Short range models are not that enthused for tonight around here from local sources, yet I see storms firing NE of me near Wilmington and Woodbury, NJ. The Delaware rain forcefield is in full effect below the C&D Canal.
-
Large hail is a rare event in ANY given location. You're biased because it's your backyard. Think about why the SPC probabilities are "within 25 miles of a point" The probs are never "damaging wind at your exact location" Even factoring in the city boundaries, it is not a lot of geographical space.
-
Might have been a gustnado
-
Burping TORs?
-
Certainly, looked like one.
-
Wow, yeah, I think that spike coming off the cell at the 4 o clock position is a classic indicator of very large hail.
-
Rain train setting up south thankfully. Uncongrats @ineedsnow

Pretty sure you'll miss out. I'm expecting big ass raindrops with 0.5 in.... Then again, may get screwed entirely. -
were there any signs of a tornado signature at that time? I couldn't track earlier. Looks like a minor spin-up but nice catch
