Soundings over the eastern shore, on the long range HRRR anyway, look good for severe wind potential as well as some hail with VERY steep LLLRs, 500-1000+ J/kg MLCAPE and 500mb temps (-20/-21C) w/ a LI around -4.
When you all who've already gotten the shot (I hope to get mine within the next week or two) talk about a sore arm do you mean the entire arm or just the area that got the shot?...
Everyone reacts differently of course.
I'm actually more interested in the meso-low in southwestern VA now than I am about any potential afternoon convection for the reasons stated above. Perhaps early morning downpours w/ something a little more (gusty winds). If there were a little bit more surface CAPE, it could be more interesting.
I have a challenge for you. Use your new abilities to give the subforum a derecho that moves from northwest to southeast at 70mph with numerous hurricane force wind gusts lickity split!
DOWIT!
@H2O @yoda Oh you two were referring to @WxWatcher007. Yeah he'll get multiple truck-tire eyewalls and eyes, hopefully.
As for us?... Weenie-Os and Miller-Lites to drown the tears of being fringed it is.
I WAS low-key wondering about the steep low-level lapse rates, weak instability and deep northwesterly flow for tomorrow after seeing today's 12z CAMs. Apparently the SPC is low-key watching as well.
...Delmarva/Chesapeake Vicinity...
Moderate northwesterly deep layer flow is forecast across the region
as a strong upper low moves offshore the Northeast coast and an
upper ridge slides slowly eastward across the Midwest. Surface
dewpoints are forecast to increase into the upper 40s and low 50s
beneath modest midlevel lapse rates, resulting in weak instability
during the afternoon and evening. Furthermore, forecast soundings
show a well-mixed boundary layer developing as temperatures warm
into the 70s. While severe storms are not expected given weak
instability, a couple of convective showers and/or storms could
produce locally strong gusts.

Some things just don't change lately.
Ex. The near sub-tropical entity dropping 2+ inches of rain with the western edge along- you know the interstate continuing last years theme.
As always, persistence until it isn't anymore. But this persistence has been persisting persistently for a while.
It's going to change... eventually.
Yeah. March climo and the tendency for overnight storms to our west to sink south of modeled are really keeping my expectations in check for Sunday atm.
The last time, from my memory anyway, that DC was in a hatched zone was on a Day 3 outlook for April 6, 2017.
The last time, from my memory anyway, that DC was in a hatched zone at gametime was on February 24, 2016.
