Looks outstanding. Also a decent chance of some showers Sunday associated with the upper energy rotating down and passing to our north. Looks like something might pop along the trailing cold front.
Another exciting severe weather day in the MA. Looking forward to the next super dry multi-day wind event. One thing we are decent at outside of heat and humidity.
Love me some original WWS. The bourbon barrel aged version is top notch too. Looking forward to the release of Utopias Barrel aged WWS in October. Probably won't be much around, so might have to take a trip to Milton.
I only had this once a couple years ago when I was in PA. Incredible. Was pricey, similar to WWS if not more. Not sure they are brewing this anymore.

The FV3, 3k NAM, RGEM and even the ICON are focusing much of the convection in extreme NE MD, N DE and SE PA with what looks to be the track of the MCV. Other storms fire to the south and southwest of that low, but more scattered.
Looking at the sounding here on the 3km NAM, that dry layer and the respectable low level lapse rates would seem to signal a damaging wind threat. DCAPE gets up over 900 for a time. Also some low level directional shear, thus a slight chance of a tornado. The most impressive parameter with this threat are the increasing wind speeds with height. The CAPE looks a tad skinny, but decent. My non-expert observations. Also predicting a fail for my yard.
Definitely not the same as last year for the coastal plain. I am over 5" for the month here but it seems dry. It has been pretty "normal" rainfall since May.
Regardless of what happens(or doesn't)today, the pattern for this weekend into next week will deliver some stellar weather. Probably doesn't get any better for early August as advertised.
We will probably never see anything like this during winter.
