HOLY hell the humidity - was 98% in fallston area at 6 am - 93% at 8 am and still upper 80s now in Bel Air. It is almost unfathomable to me to see it this humid here for this long. This was what living in Memphis, TN was like for a decade in the summer and...I was happy to move to get away from that.

Whoever gets into moisture/rain/storms today...it is gonna rain a ton - so much precipitable water feels available. 

95/72 in Baltimore city with feels like of 104.

JUICY

Mostly did not sneak into HoCo. Somewhere just shy of 0.05”. WPC says I’ve got 3.5” to go this week. 

Just gonna take a flush hit from one or two of the rounds of moisture to make them right at any given part of our area. I guess we have four days for that to happen. It is, as we can ALL agree, a particular juicy airmass...

Just waves of tropical downpours for 10 minutes or so each time, and then stops, and then returns all morning into the early afternoon downtown Baltimore. Like being in Charleston, SC in August...

Wherever that shield of rain sets up this PM is gonna get a deluge - looks like eastern shore and Delaware most likely for that...

Pouring in downtown Baltimore at the moment. 

South Florida-ass airmass.  

Taking the Amtrak to Philly old school style and then the septa over to the ballpark to catch my Reds against the Phillies. Just a gorgeous summer day for  a 4:00 game.

Had to drive south to Hereford to get the kiddo. So much lightning south near Baltimore that I can see from my pov

CRAZY  in middle of downtown. I am in my office 20 floors up facing west and watched it come in. Unreal. 

Holy hell, this storm that is hitting downtown Baltimore is insane. 

Crazy gray and cool - for anytime in June - much less juxtaposed with the heat we had Sunday - Thursday. I've lived here 16 years now in the DMV and still have not gotten used to the whiplash from backdoor fronts. 

Downtown Baltimore is effin' hot again. Walked four blocks down to Pratt and back up to my bldg around 1:30 and it was broiling. 97 per various sources. Confirmed.

Heavy rain here. One distant rumble of thunder so far.

I did get a mow in just in time.

Looks like this one may hold together heading east of you. Fingers crossed.

Nothing sauce here in 21057. 

It fell apart on approach to hunt valley / like - right as it got here - so I think for this round you up to fallston are gonna whiff too

Feels like that line may spend itself before 83 and points east / if so, watch the second chance slip south and we end up effectively split again 

Whoever gave me the weenie can suck it - it fell apart on the doorstep to hunt valley. Right on cue.

Two rounds of rain/storms  in hunt valley overnight - will be curious what fell at the girlfriend’s farm in fallston in last 24 hours - we set up a rain gauge there a few weeks ago so will get that info from her in a bit. 

.56 in the 24 hours ending at 7:30 am in Fallston at her farm - that particular area has struggled to get the rain to hold together as compared to even 10 miles west like Hunt Valley for quite awhile now.  A little over an inch of rain at her location since Sunday AM.

Looks like a decent line or storms /rain in a few hours or so for the 95-corridor folks.

Or not…

On Monday of next week we will be asking for these days back lol

The abject irritation from skipping over a series of upper 70s to mid 80s days because it has been gray east wind for two months and then going straight to hells anus hot is real.

Up to about 0.5” of much needed soaking rain. 

Yep. Pouring in downtown Baltimore too. Hoping this is making its way north of here as well to the drier areas in Balt and Harford counties. Really beneficial after the relative whiff over the last three days.

.80 here in 21057. Can’t seem to break out of rain shower in central Baltimore Co

We kinda needed it up that way after missing all weekend. Glad to get some decent rain in the ground ahead of upper 90s next week...

Got into steady light rain in Baltimore city for the last few hours. Hopefully places north of downtown are getting in on this too...
