I understand that... what i meant is do I keep my spotter ID forever and not have to take another class or does NWS recycle them

Anybody know if you need a refresher? Like I still have my spotter ID and such... but last class I took was about 8 years ago I think?

We should have won the game. Very disappointed

Decent rainbow outside right now after a quick burst of moderate rain

I see the Commanders offense is garbage so far

For a few days before the 60s DP return

Looks like rain in DC metro by 8 to 9pm looking south on radar

I dunno... I remember concerns about it. I think it was ERC and something else that weakened it

Before it weakened... wasn't Isabel a big concern for that kind of track?

@EastCoast NPZ everything okay? The desert got hit again

DISCUSSION...Cells have intensified from central into southeast OH, south of the synoptic wind shift and within the instability axis. Precipitable water is high, with moderate instability developing. Midlevel northwesterlies of 30-40 kt are also supporting cellular and mixed storm modes including small bows. Given the destabilizing air mass downstream of the existing storms, gradual upscale growth may occur as outflow production/storm coverage increases. ..Jewell/Guyer.. 09/04/2026 ...Please see www.spc.noaa.gov for graphic product...
