Radar looks very meh so far.

The NAM kinda reminds me of Isaias in terms of how it ramped up quickly at the last minute and then impacted the southern NC coastline. Like a weaker version of it.

12z GFS looks less intense in terms of rainfall than 6z but GGEM still looks pretty ugly. Not ideal on a Saturday but a big soaker would be so helpful.

Huge swing and a miss the past two days compared to what the NAM was trying to spit out.

Looks like Gert is one of those 'screw it, just name it' storms . Don't think it actually reached TS strength but *shugs*

Should disappear in an advisory or two.

Yeah, seems like they name everything in recent years. I wonder why............

Worst part about vacation. Not knowing how your property is!!!

No doubt. Sounds like we probably dodged a bullet in Ellicott City so hopefully no issues there. I’m down in the Myrtle area and we lost power tonight from a storm. No wind or anything but just unbelievable lightning. Constant flashes.

Best activity is going to be up there in SEPA it seems. 

Rinse, repeat. Been the story of the entire summer.

Over 1” at the nearest PWSs. Storms woke me up around 330. 

I think I had to get over an inch from that. Nice to cash in. Hopefully it all just didn't run right off.

It’s raining!!

Have to say Blizzard of 96. That's the first big storm I really remember. I was glued to The Weather Channel and couldn't believe we had a Blizzard Warning. And then to be out of school for a whole week and to see the drifts.

We could certainly use a couple of these to develop and eventually make their way here. We need rain so bad.

Pretty big severe bust today regionwide.

Ha, the main line somehow missed me, too. Beat goes on. Somehow going to have to water my grass today.

Line is really pushing east now. Seems FF threat has ended for about everyone except the city.

I think Bmore just got FFW.

I’m in it but shouldn’t be. Nothing to note here so far.

Yeah, big winners seem to be whoever gets the cluster from Bmore down into Anne Arundel County and then northeast of there.

Finally got some thunder but still not a drop. Radar starting pop ahead of the main line now down this way but the problem is the main line is basically on our doorstep. So close to a great heavy rain event. I'll be real interested to see some of those totals in PA.

.NEAR TERM /THROUGH TONIGHT/...
MID-MORNING UPDATE: CONFIDENCE IS INCREASING THAT THAT THE
GREATEST THREAT FOR SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS, AND ESPECIALLY FLASH
FLOODING MAY BE FROM THE BALTIMORE METRO AREA NORTH AND EAST.

Well I and my fellow desert rats are just shocked!  

My bar is a half inch and one rumble of pity thunder but that will take some luck

Seems pretty obvious just looking at radar, though I would say PA and north. Even Baltimore is missing a lot of that pre-front activity that’s popping ahead of the main line.

Got 0.75” at home earlier 

What did you get yesterday?

Looks like big winners are gonna be DC with that cell and then Northern Baltimore again. West side of Baltimore County getting it right now.

Ha, I got missed with rain somehow for the second straight day. All kinds of thunder again, but no rain. Hopefully some of the cells popping up ahead of this main line get me. Yard has a lot of brown spots.

Thunder here as well. Storms be poppin!

Flash Flood Watch up for Baltimore metro area.

Whiffed once again. Just a few drops. 

Let's see what Sunday brings.

It's been thundering in the distance here for over two hours but not a drop yet lol.

Pretty damn good storm just blowing up right over my house. Some bangin thunder. Rippin rain, no wind really. I don’t need this right now. I got beer to sell. Go away with this! 
 

ETA-Talk about slow mover! Literally training over itself. Pretty good beat down for sure. 

Really shocked there's no flood warning out for that one. Can hear some distant thunder from here. That would have been pounding my old house!

Getting wet right now. Even just heard some thunder.

For whatever reason, seems like the winners are Baltimore County and the Upper Eastern Shore. Stuff just keeps blowing up. Not much happening to the southwest of that.
