This year has been a complete dud in the severe weather department.
-
Looks like that's it for tonight. Hope we get some more rain. Was really hoping for at least a half inch . . .
-
M0.13" zzzz

Radar gives us Mason-Dixon folks some hope? Maybe that activity over Chambersburg can drift south?
-
I really hope we get a couple of remnants this year. We need the rain, and not all at once.
-
Yea we need a solid 2.5 to 4 inches of rain spread out over a 24 to 48 hour period.

NOAA had some interesting drone footage posted a few hours ago. -

Looks like Liz Leitman is on the desk at SPC today. She's solid. Should be a good day for you all.

Great question. Mesonets are actually hard to design and implement. There are many moving parts and startup funds are often difficult to come by. In Maryland we benefit from having a science minded electorate and state legislature, as well as small number of counties. This results in a project getting off the ground quickly. As for other networks, Wisconsin is building out their mesonet pretty quickly, and Pennsylvania has their first 8 sites going in the ground this summer. I've heard several rumors that Maine is starting one up, but I can't find any official source on that.
