    That seems to be how our winters are these days. Things just turn on and then turn off.
  2. Eskimo Joe
    Yea looks like after tomorrow, we start the warming trend.
  3. Eskimo Joe
    Never underestimate synoptic winds. If it were sunny today, we'd mix more effectively and probably get some legit gusts.
  4. Eskimo Joe
    Perfect weather for installing flood sensors and mesonet stations.

    I fall for this all the time too. Rich Thompson from SPC hammers this in his lecture that convection from maturing or mature systems will often persist longer than what the CAMS illustrate. We saw this during both April 2011 severe weather outbreaks where tornadoes occurred from Alabama up into Pennsylvania.

    RIP, 2nd line.

    Seems like the temperature inversion was mixed out. Winds now getting to the surface.

    Wind shift to SW at College Park and Upper Marlboro mesonet sites. Looks like the line is racing eastward.

    Seems like there's enough of a wedge west of the bay to keep the winds from mixing down to the surface effectively. All of the 40+mph wind gusts are east of the bay currently.

    So are we doing the play by play for today in here or the obs thread?

    $20 says they pay for Justin Berk's alarmism.

    Red polygon. Maybe they're leaning tornado watch?
  14. Eskimo Joe
    Gusty shower line today. I'm in. Sometimes you can get cool shelf clouds in a setup like this.
  15. Eskimo Joe
    Classic early season severe: socked in with clouds and low 50s.

    Don't sleep on setups like this. We had a marginal risk for severe weather in February just before covid kicked off that yielded numerous wind reports and several tornadoes after just an hour or two of sun: https://www.spc.noaa.gov/exper/archive/event.php?date=20200207

    JB says a lot of things.

    Yes, the Euro AI is now operational.

    FYI, Garrett County getting split into two zones beginning March 18th: https://www.weather.gov/lwx/GarrettZoneSplit

    12z NAM never gets dewpoint temps above 60F north of the Virginia Tidewater. Not sure why we have a D3 slight risk this far north.

    Do you get these notifications from Synoptic?

    RE: NOAA/NWS Call your elected representatives. Make a stink about it in person when they have town halls, but above all be respectful. Do not give them a reason to arrest you and strip your voting rights away. This is round #1. The decapitation of NWS will start in April.

    Posting this here for global awareness:

    Powder sugar snow falling in Gaithersburg at public safety HQ.

    Never underestimate a quick inch of snow on overpasses and flyover ramps at rush hour.
