  1. 6z NAM nest actually looks okay for the DC area later today. I'm sure we'll see some storms pop - we'll see who gets lucky.
  2. No. There is no tornado warning.
  3. CIPS extended range is really honking in the 168hr time frame for a severe event from the Mid-Atlantic to the SE/Gulf Coast areas.
  4. Starting to rain here in Arundel Mills. Watching some lady who is casually sitting on her balcony reading the paper. She's not making any movement to go inside.
  5. That wind core is going to go right over DCA...
  6. @yoda - They used to use the 65mph level a ton in the 90s and 2000s. Seems they like to use the 10mph intervals now. Still not seeing any northern extension. Going to be close for me. I fully expect these clouds will stick around long enough to sour my chance to see the comet tonight.
  7. I may get grazed here in the Hanover/Arundel Mills area unless there is some more development on the northern end.
  8. Interestingly - mesoanalysis actually has a relative minimum of DCAPE locally. Better numbers to the north and south. Not so great right around the DC metro.
  9. Definitely not saying it hasn't happened - but I thin those numbers are much more common with warnings (before the criteria was changed to 1 inch hail). In the old days I remember seeing 65mph a lot too with warnings and watches. But 70 for wind and 1-1.5 for hail is about even with the average severe watch around our parts.
  10. Those are pretty standard numbers for out severe tstm watches IMO.
  11. Smaller one looks like it happened around the same time in Charles County along the Potomac.
  12. Models seem to be in agreement on timing earlier than some of the recent storms too - maybe 3-6pm crossing the area.
  13. Some of the high res models are unusually robust for today (on the reflectivity maps). The ARW, ARW2 and the NMM all are lighting the area up pretty good this afternoon.
  14. Lovely...can I stay on vacation for another 2 weeks then?
  15. Coming back from vacation tomorrow. Are we tracking anything upcoming in the near future, or is it just wall to wall heat?
  16. Looks like the Visitor Center is still going to be closed - where do you plan on watching from? Wish it was a nighttime launch...
  17. I'm in Chincoteague 12th-19th. Small world. I'm really hoping the mosquitos aren't awful (I haven't been down there since I was younger). There's a NRO spy sat launch scheduled for 9am on the 15th if you hadn't already seen that. Minotaur IV rocket.
  18. Let's do it. I'm of course out town the entirety of next week. You guys will probably get rocked just because mother nature hates me.
  19. Wouldn't we want to be less squarely under the ridge and more on the periphery for derecho stuff?
  20. It's simply the best. No contest.
  21. If nothing else, at least it has made for some interesting radar watching today. Too bad not every day of heat waves can result in this. Weather has been excessively boring lately.
  22. Man...I wish every day of a heat wave would behave like this. Great little storm in Arundel Mills.
