  1. Some of the hail numbers on the Loudoun/MoCo cell are coming down now. Still a heck of a storm - and a neat shape/look to the cell as a whole on the KLWX radar. So far I haven't seen much ground truth from it, though.
  2. It's a messy looking radar overall. Definitely the signature when there's not much inhibition and stuff just wants to fire.
  3. VIL numbers on the Loudoun/MoCo cell are really impressive. Looks like the core of the VIL will head near or just south of Poolesville on current track.
  4. My guess is that the Loudoun/Montgomery cell may weaken before it gets to me...but that's a really, really nice storm.
  5. The Loudoun cell is preparing to cross over into Montgomery. That cell seems to have some legs so far. That may be the one to watch for the closer in northern DC burbs and even DC proper. It's heading ESE and continues to look impressive both on KLWX and TIAD. Question is the impact of the lead cells near Gaithersburg and the beltway. Those could leave behind a bit of a stabilized airmass for the larger, more intense cell.
  6. Heads up Leesburg! Heck of a cell now. Good velocity continues on the TIAD scans.
  7. ProbSevere for wind spiked big time with the Loudoun cell!
  8. https://cimss.ssec.wisc.edu/severe_conv/NOAACIMSS_PROBSEVERE
  9. Seems like a compact area of potential 60-65mph winds heading towards Leesburg judging by the TIAD radar.
  10. the ProbSevere placefile that @Eskimo Joe has shared before is printing out abnormally high values for some of these cells. Have gotten used to them staying under 30% most days.
  11. Severe criteria winds showing up on the TIAD radar on the Loudoun cell heading for Montgomery. Could head towards me if it keeps intensity.
  12. The Loudoun complex/cell bears watching as well. Nothing severe - but there may be a developing wind signature on that - 35-40mph range for now. But that may be organizing further. Will be interesting to see how it interacts with the outflow from the storms to the SE of it.
  13. That Anne Arundel cell has a wind signature on the TBWI radar.
  14. The cell near Berryville/Rippon looks nice - lots of lightning being detected as well.
  15. Remember that those are the grids. Often the language is better in the zone forecast product.
  16. There's an MCD now. I'm at work and can't post.
  17. There still seems to be a south-favored nature of today's threat on the models. Not to say stuff isn't north of the Potomac, but I'd say best shots at something above the severe criteria is south of DC. We'll see!
  18. 12z NAM nest focuses the activity south of DC
  19. Earlier 12z CIPS run has 5/2/2016 and 5/13/2002 in the analogs. The 2002 date was a MDT risk day.
  20. Mid-level lapse rates suck on the NAM. Timing could also adjust since we are several days out. NAM does give us sunshine that morning (for now)
  21. CIPS has a few heavy hitter events sprinkled in the next 48 hours.
