  1. Past hour
  2. Across the street from me workers were on scaffolding that partially fell (per fire radio, I couldn’t see it on my side). This is in Gaithersburg. Sounds like they were okay. Saw fire equipment I didn’t know existed like an 18 wheeler truck.
  3. Almost constant lightning and thunder at the moment in Vienna
  4. The SVR being canceled for DC is emblematic of a really mediocre summer storm season. Real snoozer.
  5. klot now @ 90/84 about as juiced as this area gets
  6. gotta say it's nice to finally get rain when the storms are rollin' through. pouring here in upper NW.
  7. The white "barriers" at Gringos and Mariachi's in Potomac blew over (and a chair went into the middle of Park Potomac Ave). Pretty good storm. Hoping the commute isn't too bad by the time I head east around 5:30. For tomorrow/Wed the models and SPC want to favor SW of us...but as we saw today - the models waffled a lot. So I think a lot of us remain in the game.
  8. not much but some heavy showers up this way - all the heavier severe stuff went south
  9. Not too impressive in my part of Silver Spring. Not much LTG/T at all. G45KT leading edge. Rainfall not torrential. The leading edge of the line was just forming a shelf cloud as it passed so it had not quite matured yet, so I would have thought better or more widespread for such an impressive line. CG plot attached. Looks like it weakened as it move into the N and NW of the immediate metro!
  10. i bet on that day he would make his responses just days later or even lurk with some emoticons on different posts...I was wrong, lol. EDIT: Small banter, sorry!
  11. I think even if it were a Weak El Nino the model would show N. Pacific trough for the Winter. Not saying we aren't going to get it, just noticed that 100% of the time it predicts ENSO climo.
  12. The Virginia part of the line has gusted out a bit, but I have a cell going up right on top of me.
  13. Dover AFB radar seems to have a good handle on the wind potential here.
  14. But this Nino at +1.8 is already stronger than 23-4 at its +1.5 peak. This is going to dwarf 23-4.
  15. The lightning strikes are impressive with this line too. Wonder if it's the boundary from the morning storms?
  16. Cell seems to have weakened a bit but is still warned Baltimore in a tornado warning
  17. Getting a car topper here. After a high of 89F, I’m now down to 82F.
  18. I still struggle with that, but have gotten better...it's just tough when you have a history of struggling to be receptive to alternative viewpoints and spend so much time and effort articulating your own thoughts....all of the investment, which is ostensibly a positive in that it's a vehicle for growth, tends to leave me more susceptible to undervaluing dissenting viewpoints. It's a balance between the understanding the that the incorporation of others' thoughts is ideal, and the instinct to be protective over an ideology that you have spent in an inordinately excessive amount of time and effort formulating. That is the essence of DBT in a nutshell...utilizing the ability to balance the extremes in life to identify and correct maladaptive thought and behavioral patterns to improve intrapersonal relationships. It's apparent on social media that many folks within weather circles could use a DBT course.
