Really good rates now. 5.5". 6" seems a lock. Can the ULL pass later get me over 8"?
-
4.75", with some pingering.
-
Legit rates back again. How long it will sustain, though?
-
Rates have definitely dropped off and a little sleet may be mixing. Hard to tell, if there is, it's lighter than a Zippo WW2 artifact. Eyeballing 4.5" plus or minus infinity.

After the Orioles' dreadful performance, another dank and dreary day would kinda fit my mood this morning.

Hugo was a baby compared to this. Tiny little bitch
Hugo was 937 mb when it hit SC. Helene as of 5 pm was 951. It may surpass Hugo. But, still, comparable.
-
The comparisons to Hugo are pretty apt I think. Strengthening on the way in, booking along, and liable to hit a major metro area far inland hard.
EDIT: One thing I just thought of, Hugo didn't seem to have a big affect on the southern Appalachians? I mean, like Helene is gonna blast them with.

Seems a little less dramatic than it looked earlier. But it was still coming down pretty hard on my morning Dunkin run.
I have an issue with water seepage in my basement, and am a firm believer in the superstition that if you mention something unpleasant enough, it won't happen, so every time there's a heavy rain, then like Pavlov's dogs, I drool "June 2006."

Hate to say it...but the radar this morning is giving me June 2006 vibes with the linear and look. It is POURING here right now. If there's not some dissipation or movement of the firehose - there's going to be issues this morning....
Yeah, usually this kind of overnight activity is one and done. This is the third period of heavy rain in an hour or so. I think this is related to the PRE to our south that's setting the table for the dangerous flooding in the southern Apps from the tropical system. I'd call it a PRE here but it seems decidedly uncertain at this point just how much of Helene's remnants affect the *immediate* DC weather.

Pretty heavy nocturnal rain shower in up nw. In fact, very heavy. Saw some flashes of lightning earlier but didn't hear thunder.
Used to own some property in Western NC, near Highlands. I would not want to be there for the next 48 hours. There are some rather hairy mountain roads around there; I can't imagine trying to negotiate them in the kind of conditions they're forecasting. And it's not too often you see Eastern WFOs talk about the possibilities of landslides.

Good stuff, though I’d like to see some better defense rather than the recent sloppy infield play.
And I'd like to see the pitcher attrition rate diminish somewhat from that seen on the Western Front of WW1.

For all the dismay about the O's rather mediocre last month, according to Statcast, the 2024 O's rank number 8 in team offense *of all time*, according to the adjusted OPS+ metric.

Right there with the Big Red Machine from the 70s. Anthony is a big part of that.

Lots of small branches and leaf debris littering the streets around here. I guess those winds touching 40 mph earlier this morning made their mark.

Whiteout rain in up nw. Winds were gustier earlier this morning, though, around sunrise, when there was little rain to speak of.

Getting pretty ominous looking in up nw. I'd go out and try to find something, but a rainy rush hour in the midst of a major metro area isn't real condusive to chasing. And I don't want to get drenched going over to Fort Reno Park. Did that for Isaias and was decidedly underwhelmed.

Still a good bit of SRH out there: patch of 300 0-3km right over DC, according to SPC hourly meso.

DCA gusted to 40 in the past hour and it's been similar here. Debby's remnants are windier than I thought they'd be.

Pretty healthy cg lightning nearby.
Just had the first real light-tower action in up nw.
Some gusty winds as an overture, but the T&L didn't start kicking in until 15 minutes or so after the heavy rain commenced.

January 5-6 Thing Storm Obs
in Mid Atlantic
Posted
This little band going over northern DC is rocking. May be letting up a wee bit now. Went out to shovel. Shoveling is much more enthralling when the snow is coming down legitimately.
