  1. NWS thinking highly enough of the repeating storm possibilities to hoist a flood watch for parts of our area. Must think there could be a lot of heavy rain considering the fairly dry antecedent conditions.
  2. wondering how well that mass of stuff approaching Fredericksburg will hold together, if it does and with storm motion mostly south to north today, could get quite a dumping unless the storms around DC now stabilize things before the southern mass can get here.
  3. definitely looks like some boundaries are colliding in central MoCo. I'm here close to Laytonsville, skies just opened up and have some pretty solid wind gusts so far.
  4. some stuff trying to get going in the Chantilly and Fair Oaks areas moving NE that if it holds together could affect more eastern areas of MoCo, but it could also fall apart...
  5. Yes, looks like even with some outflow boundaries pushing eastward from the Loudoun County storms into MoCo, nothing much firing south and east of a Mt. Airy/Damascus/Germantown line, everything kinda training from SW to NE
  6. well, even if the wind/hail/tornado potential isn't the greatest for tonight/tomorrow, Sterling thinks highly enough of the heavy rainfall possibilities to issue a flood watch for parts of the area
  7. does look like they cut back the 5% hail area quite a bit to only western VA and most of WV.
  8. wowzers! Preliminary Local Storm Report National Weather Service Baltimore MD/Washington DC 746 PM EDT Mon Aug 07 2023 ..TIME... ...EVENT... ...CITY LOCATION... ...LAT.LON... ..DATE... ....MAG.... ..COUNTY LOCATION..ST.. ...SOURCE.... ..REMARKS.. 0422 PM Hail 2 S Staunton 38.13N 79.06W 08/07/2023 M2.50 inch City of Staunton VA Broadcast Media
  9. https://weather.cod.edu/satrad/nexrad/index.php?type=LWX-N0Q-1-24 can see some semblance of outflow in this loop (at least as of right now, 5:43PM) moving S or SSE from the storms up in Loudoun/Montgomery
  10. it's... ALIVE! Everything seems to be congealing from MoCo on west towards the stuff back in Loudoun county.
  11. the blob is not in any big hurry, if it stays together there will be some decent rainfall totals for those underneath it. Cell movement started out S briefly, has gradually turned left and is now reported as a slight ENE movement, such as it is. Edit: plus there could be a bit of training effect if/when the stuff further west comes though.
  12. TVS sig on it too for now on RadarScope edit: oops, that's TVS for the cell out near Charles Town
  13. yes quite the red/green couplet of sorts spreading out rapidly, that cell sure developed in a hurry, wonder if some sort of boundry triggered it, but I can't see anything leading up to it that would be an obvious cause.
  14. cell developing just SE of Pooleville, if it holds together it could impact the Germantown/Gaithersburg/Rockville area. this is out ahead of the main area back towards Winchester so it's not "competing" against anything else for the moment.
  15. still trying... decent looking cell just popped up quickly in the Rockville area, may or may not have been influenced by a boundary.
  16. noticed that the SLGT risk area for today was nudged north and east into the immediate DC metro areas on the 9AM morning outlook. Discussion still seemed kind of muted though.
  17. an occasional small rumble of thunder here and there in Gaithersburg (near Laytonsville), and lots of heavy rain. Guess I can skip the planned lawn watering today.
  18. cell developing just to the NE of Laytonsville, moving ENE, just missed me of course.
  19. satellite loop definitely showing the fairly rapid clearing taking place ahead of the lines of storms out to the west towards Harrisonburg. Still holding out some hope for some action here in Gaithersburg if enough insolation can occur to destabilize us more.
  20. Per vis loop, the clouds over the mountains to our west appear to be thinning out some, and further west, most of West Virginia looks quite cleared out.
  21. Still coming down decently here in the Gaithersburg/Montgomery Village/Laytonsville area... thought it would stop earlier but those waves keep coming up from the south, seeming like some backbuilding of sorts going on. Will eventually move out but for now persistence rules.
  22. wow, rather substantial size for this watch box: https://www.spc.noaa.gov/products/watch/ww0159.html
