Last night was easily hands down the best active weather day I experienced in many years. We are at the beach and when I saw Baltimore County under a tornado warning and listened to my friends tell me about the insane lightning show, it was my typical luck that I missed it. But the line held and slowly made its way across the bay toward Rehoboth. The incoming storm at first was cool as the frequency of lightning was unbelievable. Flashes every 3 seconds or so. However then the incredibly frequent CG hits started encroaching and I had that “be careful what you wish for” moment. It was concerning !!! When the storm was finally overhead it was not as terrifying as the approach however. So that would have been great all by itself. But then the phone alerted again with a warning an hour later for a second storm. I never get second storms. This second storm was not as terrifying on approach , but when it was overhead.... holy hell. It lasted about 30 min and the last 10 minutes we must have had at least 100+ CG strikes within a mile of our house (or so it seemed). It was truly really scary and I’ve not felt that way in decades. We were bombarded with CG strikes. We even had a third not as intense storm 45 min later after that one. I can close the severe season on this summer now. .

Round 2 just starting at Rehoboth! .

Rehoboth Beach lightning is insane. We’re about to get whacked! .

Omar hitting Baltimore would have made my year. .

Just curious. This was posted Jan 20. It’s now September 1. How did we do? Looks like we hit number 2 and number 3. Not number 1. Jury still out on 4? 2020 not done yet. .

I watched it. It was meh. The trees blew a bit. I'm sure there will be localized reports of damage. But the video was meh. Back to watching the tropics again, the lack of severe weather in Baltimore, and the early 'winter is over' discussion on the other threads.

This is exactly the cam I have been watching for 30 min. I have Radarscope dialed in too.

Given the fact it is 2020, the next region-wide event might just be a named storm. After the dust settles down in the tropics.

How’s today’s chances looking? Atmosphere was pretty worked over last evening. .

Don't forget the abysmal winter before that either!

And the no-go wins. Barely a shower.

Certainly no severe but some yellows and reds to the west and some rumbles of thunder in the distance. It’s go no-go time. Just enough time to fall apart before it hits or strengthen. We shall see. .

Pity storms. Almost adds insult to injury. It’s like getting a 2 run HR bottom of the 9th when your down 18-3. .

I am the probably the only forum member in Baltimore County that did not get a drop of rain or flash of lightning. Chestnut Ridge. This is day 2 of zip nada zilch zero. We did have a 6 mph gust so not all is lost. Talk about a snow hole jeez this is so much worse. Going to go for the hat trick tomorrow. .

So much for that 3 day downward trend of hospitalized patients..

The movie was "The Italian Job" !!

I hope they did this re-location correctly. It requires three identical armored trucks to move the kits and only one armored truck has the test kits, and the others are empty. When the trucks get to the city intersection they all go separate routes. Plus a helicopter to track the trucks.

Thank you. I will go with this mentality. I prefer the optimistic viewpoint. I check the numbers everyday at 10 am or as soon as they're updated and every day I am looking for a decrease in the metrics. You are correct - its a marathon and maybe I should check once a week instead.

Another day and another increase in every metric. What ever happened to "15 days to flatten the curve". I just have this feeling that even if we stay this course the entire month of May the numbers will still keep going up. I don't know what to think anymore.

Interesting. It's tempting but $170 is pretty steep just to be curious.

Trying to find slivers of good news. Today's data of +509 cases in Maryland is the lowest daily increase since 326 new cases on April 6. But like weather models, one day does not make a trend.

There is no way this Tournament will happen at this point given the events of the last 24 hours.

Answer: For 1 to 13 odds for winning; Probability of: Winning = (0.0714) or 7.1429% Losing = (0.9286) or 92.8571% "Odds for" winning: 1:13 "Odds against" winning: 13:1 .

It's really gotten bad when the most we can hope for in the climatologically favored snowless February is a potential rumble of thunder and wind shift in the middle of the night with overcast skies and little surface instability. Maybe a special radio show is in order?

We only do that here. For every threat. :--)
