Winding down with a disappointing 0.10. It just never was more than light with maybe a couple minutes of moderate. Oh well at least the temp is a pleasant 75
-
I started to split on me and I thought here we go again. But now it redeveloped some to my west so i'm hoping! Looking at radar some people could get the training
-
Hearing some thunder and radar shows some stuff aimed right for me -- but I've seen that many times before. We'll see After a cloudy start, it got properly hot today!
-
Overcast and just 82 at 10:30. What an easy start to a heat wave!
-
That confused me too since your location still says Cross Junction. Probably too painful to change!
-
Now they have likely shower/t-storm chances today thru Saturday. If places score one each day this will be one easy three-day heat wave for yards and gardens! I'll be happy with one 0.5 hit in that stretch
-
LWX bullish on t-storms tomorrow afternoon/evening with 70% chance even for the desert area. Not happening here but some lucky spots will cash in (congrats again AA and Balt). Some storms might be interesting with that much heat to work with.
-
Zilch again but I knew that last Friday's early morning thunderstorm was it for the summer here. I envy places that got such a good dousing before going into the heat wave but I'll just run my sprinkler system hard before going to work tomorrow. That's desert living. Next summer I'm gonna have to let go of certain plants I like and go with more drought tolerant stuff.

With this (thankfully) short-lived heat wave coming I saw there's been just one 95 degree day so far (DCA). I remember the infamous summer of 1980 so I checked it out -- 28 days 95-plus and six 100-plus! 10 of the first 11 days of Aug were 95-plus with two 100s, and the one other day was 94. Man that was bad. And we didn't have AC!
-
My niece in southern AA Co has flooding in her yard and her veggie garden is being swamped. I cannot believe the difference in rainfall from one part of our region to another
-
Wow didn't even know there were storms as I sit in the desert with full sun and zero chance for rain. Annapolis to Balt area over and over...
-
Oooh that's gonna be a hot one! Not as bad as Friday but still... Looking nicer by Sunday maybe
-
I see we are back to normal with all the rain just to my S and E -- barely a trace here. That's why I got up and enjoyed last Friday's 3 am fluke thunderstorm -- I know that was likely the one storm of the summer for me
-
Wow is it a nice morning! If I wasn't lazy this would be an ideal time for a long walk. But sipping coffee on the deck is fine too OK heat misers here we go! Glad to see WxUSAF explain that the big heat should be short lived though
-
On another note, it's 73 and sunny at 10:40am on July 21 with clean air. Doesn't get much better than that!
-
Yeah it's gonna take some work to chip away at those deficits. This is county averages, so specific spots might be way worse. I know my spot is way worse off than say Rockville, etc
-
A stunning 1.5 which is the most rain in one storm I can remember in a long time, and is more than all of June combined. Up to 3.4 for July so far. Side note - what did they do with the iweather rainfall map? It used to be so accurate against CoCoRaHS and even my gauge. Now, not only can you not zoom in, it is way off the mark.
-
Woke up to hard rain and T&L. First time here in ages! Just now had a strike within 100 feet. Looking at radar I could pass the mythical 1 inch mark which would be the first time since I don't know when

2023 Mid-Atlantic Severe Wx Thread (General Discussion)
BlizzardNole replied to Kmlwx's topic in Mid Atlantic
Solid arc of severe TS warnings from near Toronto/Buffalo all the way back to central Ohio. Gotta wonder what this thing would have done in peak afternoon heating! Hoping to score but it's tough in the rain shadow, especially with NW to SE moving stuff. -
30-day rainfall map really shows the rain hole in our severe drought region. So another overnight disturbance coming? OK southern MD to eastern shore folks enjoy your 2-4 inches. We'll be watering tomorrow morning
-
Everything sliding just to the south, what a shock
-
Just looked at some dreary web cams from OC MD. I would have gladly taken their rainy day for them, but we don't do rainy days here in summer, ever. We do soaking rain and 33 in winter just great, but summer here is so arid.
-
Winners keep winning. When will this ever shift?
-
0.30 total. I was hoping for more but it's better than nothing. It sure seems like there are more extremes of the same places getting big rains over and over and other places nothing.
-
Got about 0.25 from that shower a little while ago. Hoping for more later from that stuff in central VA but will need a little more of a N component
