  1. What radar were you looking at? There were a bunch of storms along and east of 95 in the 12-3 window. I had one pop up overhead that dumped 1.15", with over an inch in less than 20 minutes. Sure, it wasn't widespread as Saturday, but there were definitely storms around that were profilic rainmakers.
  2. Dew point got up to 80 after we had a little pop up drop a bit of rain. Send help!
  3. That makes sense. I'm about 2-3 miles south right by the Grosvenor Metro Station.
  4. Where are you in Rockville? Your obs are almost always very similar to mine.
  5. Radar indicated 60mph, but winds didn't effectively mix down to the surface here. Gusts didn't look higher than 40s. Still a fun storm
  6. Ended up with a quick .59 here with that little line.
  7. Got down to 44 here this morning. Happy Summer!
  8. I tried to get a good view of it from the backside after it passed over me. Too many low level clouds obscuring the base. Definitely saw some lowering between clouds, but couldn't see it well enough to see if it was rotating or not. Edit: It was really trying to get its act together when it went over me. The updraft that formed the hook was directly overhead and I saw the associated rain shaft form directly overhead. There was a ton of vorticity, but nothing organized until after it passed me.
  9. We had some hail between pea size and dime size in N. Bethesda
  10. 2.43" so far here in N. Bethesda
  11. 2.49" here over the last 3 days. Most of it last night.
  12. I was there with my son. They're one of his favorite bands. I wasn't sure what to expect without Chester, but Emily was pretty bad ass. Hope you enjoyed it! Back OT: dark and damp here, but no new precip
  13. .57 here today so far. Nada yesterday. Linkin Park?
  14. He's better than an AI robot; he's always right!
  15. We can sacrifice him for 33 and rain...
  16. 1st Amendment doesn't apply to a private forum, genius.
  17. This exactly, and if you were comparing the same thing, you'd see that the NWS never forecast a 1+ foot snowfall. Their forecasts and discussions have consistently mentioned the possibility of the storm missing our area to the south. Wx53 is right that the models can be wrong. That's why the forecasters don't simply forecast what the models show. They digest them as one data point in their forecasting process.
  18. Mike has been very good with this storm from the get go. He was preaching caution when we saw the big runs, and focusing on the strength of the upper low.
  19. Let PSU start a new thread for his storm. Ji brings bad juju.
  20. I ended up with 5.25" in N. Bethesda, bringing the yearly total up to 14.5". Hoping to add to it next week.
  21. We've got 4.75 in North Bethesda. Calling it a night.
  22. 4" in N. Bethesda. Hell of a way to run a bust...
  23. MoCo just joined the 2-hour delay party.
