  1. That's a bit of a hyperbole. There's no indication this is going to be an oven of a summer.
  2. If we could repeat last night's rain for a week that'd be awesome.
  3. We need the rain. I'm glad we had some showers and that I was incorrect.
  4. We're definitely going to slide back into a drought here shortly.
  5. The 20z HRRR is insistent on some ridge crawlers running east through the metros after 8pm this evening. Based off satellite, Id say that isn't happening. The CU field is just fading away.
  6. I surveyed that entire path. Started in Poolesville around 11:30pm - 2:00 am the night of the event. We even incorporated drones from the police department. After an exhaustive amount of work, there was a small gape of about 2 - 2.5 miles hence the split in the track.
  7. One thing we have going for us, RE: busting warm, is that our soils are bone dry. Every mesonet station clearly shows the 2" and 5" soil data nearly void of moisture. That might allow things to warm up fast.
  8. Ain't happening. Euro is always too hot beyond D3.
  9. Soil data (temp and moisture) is now available on the Frostburg mesonet site: https://weather.umd.edu/mdmesonet/?station=frostburg
  10. Preview of winter 2024-2025?
  11. As we get into the summer, we typically do great on parameters save two: EML and a strong kicker. As a result, we get those glorious pulsers that wreck one are but spare the rest of the county.
  12. Yea those "big heat" days are when you get a nice ridge stretched from Kentucky to Bermuda. You just bake.
  13. Yea absolutely nothing excites me about Friday.
  14. Going for the Labor Day tease that does absolutely nothing, but reset our climo.
  15. This is our year. I finally have enough money saved for a week long vacation at the beach starting the day before Labor Day.
  16. Euro 2m temps always seem overdone.
  17. Broadcast mets need to stop with the 10 day rainfall forecasts. They should know better.
  18. Montgomery County tornado path now updated to 26 miles.
  19. Yea that June 2013 event was my first damage assessment. I've always leaned towards the mini tornado alley along the Frederick/Montgomery County line. Perhaps it's Parr's Ridge, or something else, but hopefully these mesonet stations will help diagnose this in the future.
  20. We're putting a mesonet site in Dickerson off Elmer School Road....probably would've helped with that cell. My ultimate wish is to have the Maryland Mesonet install some profiler sites like what New York does. More Lidar soundings that can be ingested through MADIS by SPC and NWS.
