  1. Nice heavy downpour for a few minutes and some good lightning but no wind. Already winding down. I hope we get a second round from the stuff developing in eastern WV
  2. That whole initial line skipped me -- hoping for the one moving NE thru Poolesville. SW to NE works for me -- lots of lightning in that one
  3. Off-topic but what a nice looking property! That line is really starting to congeal together now as it moves east
  4. I am hoping for a couple rounds of good thunderstorms with heavy rain and lots of lightning, bonus if second round is at night. But I don't want damaging severe. I've experienced baseball size hail twice (1978 and 1992) and I don't ever want to see that again
  5. 0.9 from the showers tonight and even better that was spread over several hours instead of all at once. Perfect! Hope some dry places really cash in tomorrow
  6. Got about 0.2. Hoping for more later
  7. Yes nice little shower moving thru. Hoping to get a lot of that tonight Nice band moving into the DC area
  8. Hoping to luck into some decent rains overnight as I don't trust tomorrow for my area. We don't do well in W-to-E moving thunderstorms
  9. I went on a nice walk just a while ago with the cool temps and cloud cover and had no idea about showers moving in. A decently heavy one is passing through right now -- I came pretty close to getting drenched!
  10. Just took a nice long walk at mid-day on August 1 at just 79 degrees. That's superb! Glad the smoke is not a ground level. DCA has only three 95-degree days so far (all last week). The closest station to me (3 SSW Damascus) has none and only four 90-degree days.
  11. 0.9 combined from yesterday and Friday with 4.4 total for July. That's decent but May and June were incredibly dry and we are still about 10" below for the year. It is a glorious 66 degrees right now and I'm gonna enjoy these next few cool mornings!
  12. Just over 0.5 to go with yesterday's 0.4. I have a some yard clean-up to do with lots of branches down including one about 10 feet long, and one butterfly bush split in half. I'll just cut it down to 15" and let it regenerate.
  13. Flush hit from that short-lived but strong storm! I estimate some gust to about 50 mph and sheets of rain. Will measure soon. Good two day stretch for a parched area. Sorry for those that missed out yet again
  14. Looks like just under 0.4 in the gauge. <Wendy's 80s Soviet commercial for you fellow X-ers> "very nice very niiiiice
  15. Moderate rain and lots of rolling lightning and thunder. Good stuff!
  16. Looks like the worst of that severe cell went to my north thru Clarksburg. Fine by me I don't want hail -- I like heavy rain and lightning. Just light stuff so far
  17. OK so that one one in SW Mont Co is moving NE -- that gives me a better chance as down-sloping doesn't kill those as much as the W-E movers. No hail though please! Just give me the business with rain
  18. It's the higher elevations from my SW all the way around to NE. Thunderstorms moving west to east typically split or fade right as they drop down over my area, then recover and reform just to my east. Happens over and over and so it takes a fluke to get a TS here. I've had one so far this summer. We do fine during the 5-6 months of 30 to 50s and rain from November to April
  19. LOL east moving thunderstorms almost in the same place as yesterday moving my way. I fully expect them to fade right as they arrive like yesterday and for the front to go thru dry tomorrow. What will come though is beautiful temps from Sunday thru most of next week. It's gonna be nice! Get those grills ready
  20. We could hear thunder and radar had heavy rain aimed right at us for over an hour and it kept fading right as it got to us. Nice swath of 1 inch plus amounts just to the west but only 0.1 for me. That was a huge disappointment.
  21. Dang now I see some stuff that just popped to your north moving east. Sorry!
  22. 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
  23. 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
  24. 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!
  25. Overcast and just 82 at 10:30. What an easy start to a heat wave!
