  1. Yea my cats are yowling from the thunder. It's hilarious. You'd think it's WWIII the way they're acting.
  2. LSR from Manchester, MD. lso saw a report of M58mph winds in Millers, MD: Tstm Wnd Dmg Report Time 2023/09/07 1925 UTC Magnitude UNK Location Manchester County Carroll State MD Lat/Lon 39.66/-76.89 CWA LWX Fatalities 0 Injuries 0 Source County Official Comment Carroll County Public Schools had delayed dismissal due to roads closed from fallen trees and wires.
  3. Looks like that outflow is killing any second chances of storms. I hope I'm wrong and we can see some more widespread showers.
  4. There are a lot of backlogged hail LSRs. LWX went into warning mode fast and probably won't be able to process them until this activity clears out later this evening.
  5. Couple of cells firing in the NW suburbs, but they appear to be struggling to maintain updrafts. Probably need to wait for the lee trough to form or the front to get closer.
  6. Yes. We have an interesting combo here, anomalous heat, decent shear and a sharp front. Kind of surprised there isn't a watch box out already.
  7. Yes please. We need a soaking 2" - 4" of rain over a day or two. It's too damn dry.
  8. 98 in Reisterstown. Holy moley this is painful
  9. ^big heat does not go quietly into the night. September can be interesting because we get strong cold fronts with some more pronounced upper level support. What we really need though is a solid 2" - 4" of rain over a day or so.
  10. I would take anything that comes out of the farmer's almanac with a huge grain of salt. Not sure why people listen to that thing anymore.
  11. Thanks. I really appreciate your answers to all of my questions.
  12. Which do you find is more impactful for the Mid Atlantic, the PDO or PNA? To my untrained eye it seems the PDO is more valuable to have in your corner.
  13. How good was 2002-2003 for y'all up there?
  14. Seconded. Last winter was absolutely brutal in Maryland.
  15. If you are referring to Hilton Head, KHXD, then the difficulties are possibly due to it being an AWOS and not ASOS. AWOS are antiquated systems that can be put at lower priority airports. If I recall correctly, AWOS do not have a mandate to be augmented by humans, not do they require an alternate power source. Therefore, if there is a commercial power loss the system just goes dark. We simply do not fund our environmental observation networks in the US and the truly upsetting part is that it would not cost too much money to do so.
