  1. Decent instability Baltimore and into Delmarva. Won't take much there to kick something off.
  2. Hopefully these clouds melt away so we can get some heat. I love hot summers.
  3. Yes. Meso guidance is pretty dry throughout the region today and tomorrow. I'd probably toss the Euro.
  4. Euro is broken...always shows big heat and big rain anymore.
  5. A cicada flew into my wife's coffee while she was on the deck this morning. She ate it and now for some reason all she can do is go BRRRRRR and flutter around the house. Send help.
  6. Our pool temp jumped 4 degrees in the past two days. Feels great.
  7. Main cell just south of Mt. Vernon getting a decent hail signature on it. Dover and ADW radar starting to pick up on it.
  8. Watch box is out: https://www.spc.noaa.gov/products/watch/ww0235.html
  9. Watch box coming for the slight risk area: https://www.spc.noaa.gov/products/md/md0847.html
  10. Latest update has several 40kt + pixels. Definitely warrants the SVR for wet microburst potential.
  11. Wind shift to W in Gaithersburg and out Td is falling into the mid 60s. Looks like no mas for us west of I-95.
  12. Weak mid level lapse rates will kill you every time in these parts. Couldn't maintain updrafts so it's just sporadic wind reports.
  13. Couple of cells trying to fire in Loudoun and Montgomery counties.
  14. Latest SPC meso analysis has MLCAPE up to 1,000 j/kg through DC and across US 50. A bit better than I thought it would be when I woke up this morning.
  15. The image below shows how long many hours it takes for a watch box to verify after it's issued. Note the clear correlation between watch probability in the antecedent MCD and number of watch boxes that verify within 2.5 hours of issuance. FWIW, the meso I posted above is 60%.
  16. NAM twins putting a decent UHI track in the Frederick/Carroll county tornado zone. EDIT: HRRR giving some UHI love to Frederick / Carroll / Howard / Baltimore counties.
  17. HRRR is more encouraging for us this afternoon. Would be a standard slight risk day.
  18. The last couple of frames of the visible satellite leaves some room for optimism for those of us in the slight risk area. The 12z RAOB from Sterling indicated a convective temp of 79° and we're starting to see a few 80°+ values pop up. If we can get into the lows 80s then perhaps things can work out better for us.
  19. 2/15/0 on the afternoon SWODY1 update.
  20. Sterling seems pretty bullish about tomorrow. Curious as to what they are seeing to make them so.
