I would love to see those storms up north drift down to Frederick tonight. Maybe we'll get a nice light show at least.

Went from .03” to .93” from that line last night. 4.37” for the month. 
That lightning early this morning was  the most intense I have seen for sometime. It was non stop. 

Yeah the lighting last night was absolutely amazing. That was the most charged storm that I can recall in past couple of years. Lots of close strikes downtown here.

Looks like Frederick about to finally get in on this.

Saw some really nice cloud to ground strikes from Frederick looking west towards the approaching storms!

Frederick about to be deluged again

Man you called it, that cell just blossomed over Urbana heading NW and it's pouring downtown again.

It took its sweet time, but it’s pouring here now.

Yeah that was an aggressive downpour. Sitting outside my third floor apt, and you could hear the roar of the downpour hitting the metal rooftops as it approached. I expected hail, but just rain.

Nothing in Frederick so far. Looking at the radar, it's hard to project any precip making it up this way. WWA seems a bit unnecessary at this point.

That's why you pile the dendies real high! Can't do a thing about the sun so shovel every walk, road, pile it up! Leave no flake behind!

Well I love this term  thanks!

Just a lurker, but 1) love stormtrackers p-b-p, 2) seems futile to open a thread before an advisory/watch is clearly imminent.

Really hoping for some precipitation soon, but my what an unbelievably tranquil Autumn!

Man I was taking a walk on the west side of frederick city by Hood College and thought the sky was a little too reddish to the north. Not seeing anything now from my third floor apt though.

The low level, fast moving clouds are gorgeous tonight, along with the cooler air.

Hope Debbie is out of here by Sunday, heading to Canaan to do some Perseid watching...

Warm. Finally broke down and put in the window unit this morning. I usually try to make it until July 4th, but not happening this year.

Just for my own entertainment I hope that red/magenta pulse makes it's way to Frederick. Love to see some torrential rain before the beautiful day tomorrow!

Nice finale for Frederick as that streaming band moves in. Roads and vehicles turning white again :)

Doug Hill was my dude when I was a kid (even in the Valley we got WUSA9).  Now we probably watch the other Doug the most - although still like Topper.

Yeah as kid, (and I have no idea if this was even true or not now that I'm in my forties), but it seemed like he always had a more serious demeanor which for some reason just jived with how seriously I took the weather But I also miss the days of minimalist local on the 8's weather forecasts...

I just happened to catch this last night in Frederick, and it was definitely one of the most dramatic, long lasting meteors I've seen.

Frederick may see two showers in one night!

Loving the humidity and cicada's this week. A really enjoyable and tranquil late summer period we're in.

Looks like it mostly skips over the recently constructed rain shield around downtown Frederick and reorganizes in time for points east.

Yeah would love to see some rain here in Frederick, with some thunder too. We've really been shorted so far this summer.

I can only assume this was posted to show the green pollen cloud visible from space????

Really just banter but this would be such a wonderful way to end this winter. Early Red Buds and Magnolias popping against a backdrop of white. Bringit.

Flurries in Frederick!

For the past ten minutes or so, the heaviest heaviest rain since Friday evening is falling.

i think there were at least realistically 50mph gusts at peak here, maybe higher.  hard to tell from inside, but it this was a patio chair mover.  only thing missing was hail.

This is my favorite storm so far this year, at least for daytime. Really nice wind driven heavy rain with decent, but not over-the-top lighting+thunder. [pretty intense flash just now as I type though]
