    If only G-Rod and Means weren’t on the shelf … thars a pretty good lineup they run out there one thru six these days ETA: just checked; O’s are FOUR out of the WC. Would like them to keep Trey, he deserves to be on a good run here if the O’s have it in them.

    No gauge but radar estimate has me in 2.5 to 3” range. Maybe 7-8” IMBY for the week? But most important to me … basement did not flood! ETA: wow at those 8-10” estimates just south of potomac

    But I love me an ominous-sounding AFD, and this afternoon's was a good 'un. Standard deviations! Higher magnitudes of forcing! One to five-to-ten year ... event! (Just a "hint," though.) Area of greatest concern! A new one: "hydrophobic." All it missed, was "lollipops." But I guess that's more a snow thing? This is NOT to poke fun at the forecasters at Sterling or the AFD's author! They are fantastic. I'm just a connoisseur of AFD's -- some of them are little works of art, I've saved Dewey's before PD2 somewhere -- and I always like the ones when the writer brings in a bit of drama.

    These past two days have been disgustingly yukky. I know we've had hot weather this year but it seems the humidity hasn't been as bad as per usual. I've usually acclimated to the typical DC summer miserable mugs by early July, but I've really been put out by the sheer ooziness of the past few days. Hopefully one of these training storms will give me a good light show in a bit, make up for it.

    It's raining hard, but I've certainly seen heavier. Then again, "heavier" in my head canon is June 2006.

    This is the definitive garden-variety thunderstorm. But I'm drinking because my wife and daughter are out of town, and I'm blasting Tom Waits and relieving the glories of bachelorhood. So it's OK. ETA: Although that was a pretty impressive strike just now. Rattled the windows I think.

    Clouds getting a bit of ye old mammatus look to my NW.
  8. 09-10 analogy
    Yeah, really nice V-shaped notch on that MOCO cell. Constant low rumbling thunder in upper NW, this one will miss to my north, but I opened the window because I love that sound. Nature's version of Jason Newsted. Well, maybe not *that* loud.
  9. 09-10 analogy
    Usually the infamous DC split is to the north and south. This time it’s to the east and west.
  10. 09-10 analogy
    Just a sprinkle here. Sun coming back out.
  11. 09-10 analogy
    Looking forward to a good multiple-round day tomorrow, with strong winds with the first go and plenty of CG with both. I'll prolly be disappointed, but one can always hope. If we have a "peak" thunderstorm season around here, we're probably in it now.
  12. 09-10 analogy
    Simply spectacular. Wish all summer was like this. We wouldn't get many storms, but MBY doesn't seem to get many this year anyway.
  13. 09-10 analogy
    Possibly “patchy frost” out in the mountains this weekend according to the latest AFD. When was the last time that may have happened on mid June around here?
  14. 09-10 analogy
    We’ve had mostly sunny conditions all day long and it is pretty gooey outside
  15. 09-10 analogy
    That was a hell of a storm. Tops to maybe 70k! Like to dial up something about 3/4 of that around here for the 10 year anniversary of the big D.
  16. 09-10 analogy
    Getting smoked in upper nw. Winds prolly gusting over 40 and it was quite the lightning show at the start though the cg kinda stopped when winds and rain hit
  17. 09-10 analogy
    It’s booming pretty good in up nw. A LOT of angry lightning bugs with this one.
  18. 09-10 analogy
    Our own little version of Moore OK or Tanner AL eta: decent winds gusted to maybe 40 here
  19. 09-10 analogy
    Winds beginning to kick in up nw
  20. 09-10 analogy
    Yeah the afternoon afd said there might be another round
  21. 09-10 analogy
    Just realized today is the 11th anniversary of the Joplin EF5. I think that was a Sunday too. I think it was happening about this time of day as well.
  22. 09-10 analogy
    Love these storms with torrential rain while half the sky is bright think we’re gettting some small hail now hopefully it stays small
  23. 09-10 analogy
    Getting some serious CG action in upper NW eta: very heavy rain now but not much wind
  24. 09-10 analogy
    I’m hearing a few pingers in upper nw as well
  25. 09-10 analogy
    C-, maybe C. Let’s say a 73 if we rate it numerically. Pretty good January, the rest was in the crapper. Well, there were a few neat moments in March. Then again, I’m a hard grader, which isn’t a good idea around here.
