  1. We always want the capture and tilt to occur as far to our southwest as possible. Otherwise we're living on the edge, and that's not good.
  2. Looks like 1" - 2.5" with 15 - 25 mph winds is on the table. Boom potential is 2" - 4" rain, with 30+mph wind. Bust is less than 0.5" and a slight breeze.
  3. Don't look now, but the GFS tries to spin up another coastal low during the 18th - 20th timeframe.
  4. Incredible temperature swing in Baltimore County. 38 in Parkton, 46 in Towson, 57 in Baltimore City.
  5. The 18z GFS op is interesting for Southeast Pennsylvania and Northeast Maryland. At 00z Monday, there's a potent 500mb jet of at least 50kts extending from Cecil County down to Bermuda. Meanwhile at 850mb, there's a 50 - 75kt easterly jet from Cape Cod to Lancaster, PA. Someone is going to get drenched.
  6. We now have enough mesonet stations online that terrain features are becoming visible. Tonight's low temperature map should be interesting to witness.
  7. Bittinger dipped to 29 degrees last night. I wonder if we see more sub freezing temperatures tonight? There doesn't seem to be much wind, so we might decouple quick.
  8. Looks like the Midwest short wave does not get over the CONUS upper air network until 12z tomorrow, 10/10. Wonder if we'll see things tighten up tomorrow morning?
  9. Looks like we have the book ends for this event. GFS/hi-res scenario where it's a quick capture and more dynamic event down our way. Euro scenario where it's a late, disjointed phase and we get scraps.
  10. Seems like the 12z suite is hinting at the Midwest short wave coming in faster, and further southwest. This appears to enable a more complete capture of the coastal feature. Something to watch perhaps? I know @WxUSAF and I were discussing this at Lisbon the other day.
  11. I would honestly feel better if this midwest shortwave was dropping further west. We're really living on the edge here for the capture.
  12. Yes it was a cool morning for sure!
  13. IMO, if we can make it inside HR90 and this thing has de-amplified, then this is legit. That's my go/no go threshold.
  14. Neutrals are a complete dice roll. 2013-2015 were rather neutral, but things broke our way more times than not.
  15. Remember, the Euro nailed Sandy. Therefore it's always right.
  16. @WxUSAF, @wxmeddler, and I did a thing today!
  17. I'm just very proud of that site. It's a beautiful location, and it seems to jackpot a lot.
