    So far this appears to be shaping up to be a warm summer, but it doesn't look like one of the good old fashioned hot ones.

    It's a damn shame the Big Boy steam engine isn't coming back west through Harpers Ferry. That would've been an EPIC shot coming out of the tunnel and going over the Potomac.

    Eh, this is a slight risk day. It's not like we were staring down a D3 MOD risk with a CIG2 hatch 60% or something that fizzled.

    I've been in a few NOAA/NHC/FEMA webinars recently where the speakers have made observations where the AI guidance appears to not overhype, but rather really juice up convection in the warm sector. It's entirely possible these AI models need more events in their knowledge base before they can beat the traditional NWP. Just my observation. Others are welcome to chime in.

    This is just my observation, but the AI stuff (NCAR) seems to over do convection is marginal environments. It's almost like there aren't enough events in it's database.

    I'm kind of in the same boat as you. Still, we've seen what marginal surface instability and good dynamics can do in these parts.

    SPC maintains the 15% for D4 (Thursday) and mentions the usual fail potential alleys: clouds, timing, etc. That being said, any time you get a decent jet just to our north and a reasonably hot/humid airmass...interesting things can happen.

    Yea definitely looks like a tornado somewhere between Libertytown and New Windsor:
  10. Eskimo Joe
    That cell in Libertytown/Walkersville appears to have been legit. Some reports of structure damage. . .maybe a tornado?

    Interesting radar signature just NW of Sykesville, MD

    Constant lightning just to my west in Reisterstown. Cats army crawled down to the basement.

    Impressive LSR out of Grafton, WV for that western line "Sustained 35 mph for 5 minutes with gusts to 62 mph."
  15. Eskimo Joe
    There's gotta be something nearby. That cell in York County went nuts in like 3 frames.
  16. Eskimo Joe
    Interesting little cell near Walkersville in Frederick County.

    Atmosphere isn't overturned between I-81 and I-95 and there's a couple of boundaries floating around. Might be in store for at least some elevated convection?
  19. Eskimo Joe
    Some cells firing up along the western slopes of Catoctin Mts.

    M1.25" hail Ripley, MD according to the LSR just reported by Sterling!
  21. Eskimo Joe
    Two areas of interest locally: 1.) Bay press pressed up somewhere between US 29 and I-95 west of the bay. 2.) Looks like a decent outflow boundary settling along I-66. Wonder if these serve as a focus for later in the evening?
  22. Eskimo Joe
    Yup. Surprised there isn't a downstream tornado watch for at least northern PA.
  23. Eskimo Joe
    Hahaha Yinzer Alley go brrrrr
  24. Eskimo Joe
    Wow
  25. Eskimo Joe
