    As usual for us down here, its all dependent on how north the warm sector gets before the cold front comes through. Need enough daytime heating and lift, otherwise we see nothing. PA has a better shot because they get the better ingredients near the warm front and the lift.

    yeah but its no better in PA. advertises a couple larger cells in NNE PA towards NJ, but that's it. its a very broken line of storms ahead of the front, with nothing popping up out ahead. very weird to see when there is an enhanced risk and strong wording from State college.

    LWX seems uncertain in their morning AFD https://forecast.weather.gov/product.php?site=NWS&issuedby=LWX&product=AFD&format=CI&version=1&glossary=1&highlight=off State College though, their AFD is pretty good weenie material https://forecast.weather.gov/product.php?site=NWS&issuedby=CTP&product=AFD&format=CI&version=1&glossary=1&highlight=off 06z NAM is pretty boring, so we shall see today brings. But I think the further north you are, the better your chances of seeing something worth a damn. All the best stuff will be in PA

    this is a huge problem across the board. my own mother, for a time, didn't even know the difference. however, regarding schools, the State of Maryland Board of Ed needs to make sure their teachers and especially their principals are properly trained to know the correct verbiage and what to do. I hope this is a serious lesson to the school, and the overall county, on properly handling of these situations.

    I saw. Lots of discussion earlier this week on why an elementary school in the middle of the tornado warning dismissed the kids anyways. Apparently the warning came out minutes before the dismissal bell rang, and the principal was told yet had the kids leave anyways. really stupid. and FWIW: my daughter's school held the kids until 4pm, even though the warning was south and east.

    My other half just emailed asking of this was it in terms of severe
  21. mappy
    ahh, you did say 1-95 corridor. my bad. i have a hard time believe that slug of moisture south of DC won't hit I-95
  22. mappy
    Are we looking at the same HRRR?
  23. mappy
    My understanding of SPCs outlook was the any pre squall stuff had the potential for severe/tornado. Otherwise, the worst would come through later with the main squall line (later tonight).

    rotation looked good when the warning was first issued, its weakened a bit.
