  1. Imagine if we flip to a wet pattern and then somehow with a quiet tropical season still get slow moving remnants over us later in the season...
  2. Wind signature near The Plains.
  3. I always "forget" - but lightning is SUCH a good indicator a lot of times in terms of how a storm is trending. The one well NW of Luray has COPIOUS lightning with it.
  4. Watching the stuff to the west of Front Royal/Luray areas for the greater DC area later.
  5. Original spot ended up being closed after I drive out there this morning. Thought I was going to get scraps around the mall area. Got some great shots instead! Glad I didn't rage quit and go home. Toasty out there earlier, though...not looking forward to months of hazy, humid heat...;
  6. Central MD special Now if only I trusted the RGEM at this range more.
  7. Even the lower CSU is still in the 15% range for wind. Given how boring things have been - I'll take it for some thunderstorm activity!
  8. Yeah for sure - I mean am I right in saying that it is mostly attributed to the "doldrums" of summer and just weaker overall systems later in summer? At least spring/very early summer you can still get some dynamic systems with big temperature swings behind fronts and such. I will say - sometimes you will (like you said) get an isolated event that has an absolutely destructive microburst in the area - if that happens in a populated area that can be a "signature event" for some people for a given year.
  9. Boring, allergy-laden weather, lovely…fire danger increasing too
  10. That report shows "wind gusts estimated 65-70mph" in the LSR on GR2AE. Not sure why the numerical value is 81mph. Also not sure which line to believe lol.
  11. I thought CIG was "reasonable max intensity" not "this is what we expect"? Given that DCA gusted to 68mph - that's right up there and not sure an additional 7mph would have caused a appreciable difference in damage. But not sure.
  12. I was kind of shocked that they didn't include one more tier west of counties. I guess they were relying heavily on the boiler plate "in AND around the watch area"
  13. ANDREWS AFB,MD (ADW) ASOS reports gust of 51 knots (58.7 mph) from WNW @ 0128Z -- KADW 170128Z 30038G51KT 5SM +RA SQ SCT015 BKN024 OVC031 09/04 A2939 RMK BKN V SCT CIG 022 RWY01L PRESRR SLP959 $
  14. Velocity scans to the SW in that more splotchy looking stuff are crazy. But wonder how much is actually able to mix down. Seeing pixels of over 100mph but at like 6-7kft.
