  1. LWX seems a little late with their morning update. Gun shy about this afternoon?
  2. I wouldn't be surprised if areas that got no rain yesterday gets it today, and vice versa.
  3. I think I saw the genesis of the cluster that went through NE MD earlier. Started out as an innocuous cumulus that didn’t really stand out. Only a few minutes later, it was a towerhead. An hour later, huge anvil covering the entire NE quadrant from my POV (ashburn). Blue skies all around it. Sour grapes for getting zip imby aside, it was a really cool progression to see from behind.
  4. Seeing some towerheads building to my NE now. Gray high clouds to my W makes it look like something is brewing, but hard to tell
  5. 90 at KIAD and a few other personal stations around and east of 15
  6. 7.6 C/km is no slouch. Especially now that the cloud deck has already cleared
  7. 87/71, sunny with clouds thinning out and 5 minutes later: 88/72. Juicy
  8. Clouds starting to thin out a bit. Dews back up to 70
  9. Dews momentarily dropped to 66, but faught back up to 68. North of M-D line got watched. Nothing yet down here, but should be soon. Something popping up SW of cumberland
  10. 84 already, Some cirrus cover rolling in, but dews staying at around 70
  11. Cirrus clouds are back. I understand why some are having doubts on today. Really tough situation for forecasters. If they portray this as just another summer day with a chance of tstorms and they overperform, they're going to get hell for underplaying it. OTOH they talk up the severe and it underperforms, they'll be seen as the boy who cried wolf... and lives might get lost the next time a severe event actually verifies.
  12. To me, that means east based is off the table for now. Nino3.4 probably still has some warming to do and pull that forcing a smudge east over the dateline. Then we’ll be in good shape for winter if that pans out.
  13. 79/72 ashburn. Full sun. Dews have gone up. Setup seems good so far
  14. Getting sunnier, dews in upper 60s. If we get gapped today, it won’t be because of early cloudiness
  15. Steamy outside. Sharp contrast to the last few weeks
  16. Some might dismiss or scoff at this, but I wouldn’t. I have an eye on the QBO possibly turning negative for the winter. The only fly in the ointment is high/rising solar, but I don’t know how much weight that holds.
  17. 0.61” from both yesterday and today so far. 1.25” on the month
  18. Both things can be true. We can get 2 warm months and 1 cold month, average warm overall, and still get a productive winter.
  19. Stready rain, almost 0.5”. 61
