just wait until DC records the worst air quality ever recorded here in about 2 hours.

The strongest winds appeared to occur along the many outflow boundaries put out by the storms this evening. Unfortunately, these boundaries also caused weakening of convection and less rainfall for some. The highest number of damage reports were in the western zones where the storms arrived with some daylight remaining. Currently, the strongest winds are near Pemberton in Burlington county.

Worst part of all of this, tomorrow offers an opportunity for even more destructive winds affecting an even larger area. That's in addition to the flash flood potential tomorrow into Monday night.

They sent that out here as well it was basically a mass text everywhere. Got to think they're probably running on skeleton crews and they just had one of the single worst blowdowns and a decade Sent from my SM-S731U using Tapatalk

580 thickness? 60,000 ft I bet occurred w/ such a high tropopause/EL!

By a matter of only a few miles...

That's good you brought up the DP plot for the day. That 81 on the NJ coast... I think that's KBLM? That's an AWOS so that is likely very suspect.

Well that was quite the interruption. Had to take down tents and bring the bar in in a hurry.

I bet they took a lightning strike.

A few drops fell today. Splitting around Bergen County.

absolutely surreal with fireworks going up all around me with a disco ball right overhead at the same time. somehow barely even a tenth. LOL. but the anvil crawlers are something else.

Does the stuff in Pa slide east? Or SE and then western half of LI stay completely dry?

My mistake 11:00 pm tuesday, for some of the residents out this way. That's probably mostly b*******, though.I'd imagine it's going to be long before that for most people if not everyone.

For sure, but if it’s sanctioned and regulated, I think it could be done safely. Regardless, it’s not a hill I want to die on, but fireworks seem antiquated.

Did Phil visit the OKX radar?

Big time light show looking east now. Saw several huge CG. Wild storm

Finally getting some heavier rain. Have 0.15" in the bucket and temp is down to 73.

I think we can all agree that the hype and gloom/doom everywhere is a problem. Find some common ground on an issue/debate, and work from there. If we do not quantify a problem/issue properly, then how are we supposed to handle/address it properly? Resources and $$ are finite/limited, and we know wasteful spending/graft are rife. You are not going act the best way if you are fired-up and we are fighting among ourselves! Emotional, knee-jerk reactions to problems/issues almost always end up counterproductive. Perhaps not at first, but the long-term, and the long-term is what counts. But it is a challenge for all of us to think more iong-term and in the abstract b/c we want solutions and things fixed now! Shortcoming and fallacies of human nature always are there causing their own problems. But realizing/understanding this as a base, make discussions/debates better IMHO.

Never have I had wind rock my ford around. I wish we could post videos here. I was actually getting pretty nervous while sitting at the mechanicsburg middle school. I'm going to sleep on it, but today's storme most likely makes it into my top five, and certainly the best I think i've experienced since 2011.

I hear ya. But at least it was an already highly anomalous soupy airmass. There were some coastal 80s along the seaboard. Not saying that explains it or that JFK was correct, but at least we’re not talking low 80s vs 65-70 dews.

This will be tough with the iterations of drone regulations happening the past few years. Especially in the DC/Baltimore region (and even extending to Southern Maryland, and down to Virginia Beach. Some of the most heavily regulated air space in the world exists here - and the concentration of major military installations contributes of course. Between JB Andrews, the SFRA around DC, Pax River down in Southern Maryland, and one of our biggest naval areas down in Norfolk - any mass drone event probably would be a tough sell.

BID’s wind sensor looks like it got taken out. I wonder how strong they gusted

85,000 outages CT. Wish we lived there

There are power poles west of BNL down, per mPing.
