Any reason I'm hearing jets repeatedly fly over my house past 10 minutes?

Guess I will need the jacket for a morning walk... on a August morning...

I see its raining there

https://www.wpc.ncep.noaa.gov/metwatch/metwatch_mpd_multi.php?md=0925&yr=2025 Mesoscale Precipitation Discussion 0925 NWS Weather Prediction Center College Park MD 1025 AM EDT Wed Aug 13 2025 Areas affected...Portions of the Central Appalachians and Mid-Atlantic Concerning...Heavy rainfall...Flash flooding likely Valid 131425Z - 132025Z SUMMARY...Clusters of heavy showers and thunderstorms with locally extreme rainfall rates will tend to expand in coverage over the next several hours. Scattered areas of flash flooding will gradually become likely, and especially later this afternoon closer to the I-95 corridor of the Mid-Atlantic where an urban flash flood threat is expected to evolve. DISCUSSION...The latest satellite and radar imagery shows a band of heavy showers and thunderstorms moving into northern WV, and the latest trends show cooling cloud tops associated with this activity. This convection is associated with the southwest flank of mid-level vort energy going into the central Appalachians which is embedded within a very moist and moderately unstable environment. MLCAPE values across northern WV and western MD, and areas east of the Blue Ridge over the Mid-Atlantic, are locally on the order of 1000+ J/kg. However, the PWs are quite high and locally over 2 standard deviations above normal. In fact, the 12Z RAOB soundings from KPIT and KIAD showed PWs of 1.86 and 2.22 inches respectively with tall skinny CAPE profiles and elevated WBZ/freezing levels. This is strongly suggestive of a very efficient and tropical environment that will promote highly efficient processes for locally extreme rainfall rates that may reach well into the 2 to 3+ inch/hour range. Convection should tend to generally build in coverage over the next several hours as this vort energy advances off to the east across the central Appalachians and northern Mid-Atlantic region. This will support heavy showers and thunderstorms advancing east through central and northern WV, western MD and southwest PA in the near-term. However, as instability and convergent low-level flow becomes better established this afternoon east of the Blue Ridge and into the Chesapeake Bay region, there will likely be the development and expansion of very heavy showers and thunderstorms across much of northern VA, central to northeast MD and southern PA, including areas along the I-95 corridor from Washington D.C. to Philadelphia. The latest hires model guidance may be underplaying the rainfall potential given the level of moisture that is in place, and there will the influence of diurnal heating and orographics that will also support an uptick in coverage of showers and thunderstorms. Slow cell-motions and localized cell-training concerns coupled with locally extreme rainfall rates may support some localized rainfall totals of 3 to 5 inches. Areas of scattered flash flooding will become likely in time, and this will include an increasing urban flash flood threat near the I-95 corridor by later this afternoon.

Yeah I didn't miss the humidity last week

Tropical Storm Henriette Discussion Number 18 NWS Central Pacific Hurricane Center Honolulu HI EP082025 Issued by NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL 500 AM HST Fri Aug 08 2025 Henriette has failed to produce deep convection for about 12 hours now. The latest subjective Dvorak estimates are 25 kt from JTWC and too weak to classify from SAB and PHFO. Recent objective intensity estimates range from 25 to 40 kt. An earlier ASCAT pass from 0535 UTC showed a large area of 30-33 kt vectors on the north side of Henriette. Henriette will be maintained as a 35-kt tropical storm for this advisory, but it could degenerate to a post-tropical remnant low at any time today. The cyclone is moving just north of due west at 280/15 kt. A turn to the west-northwest is expected soon as the cyclone tracks along the southwestern periphery of a subtropical ridge to its northeast. A turn toward the northwest is forecast late this weekend into early next week as Henriette becomes steered between an amplifying longwave trough northwest of Hawaii and the subtropical ridge to its northeast. The NHC track forecast is nearly identical to the previous one and is in good agreement with the tightly clustered consensus aids. Confidence remains high that Henriette will remain far to the north of Hawaii. Henriette is over 24C sea-surface temperatures (SSTs) and is embedded within a dry airmass. These cold SSTs are expected to persist along the cyclone's track for another 12 to 24 h. If Henriette doesn't generate organized convection soon, it could degenerate to a remnant low today, and this is explicitly shown in the NHC forecast Beyond 24 h, Henriette (or its remnants) will encounter progressively warmer water temperatures over the weekend, peaking around 26-27C in about 3 days. Upper-level temperatures are also expected to decrease in a couple of days as the aforementioned trough approaches Henriette, which would increase instability. These factors, along with relatively low shear, will likely allow Henriette to restrengthen later this weekend into early next week, as depicted by most of the models. The NHC intensity forecast is at the low end of the guidance envelope through 36 h, and at the high end of the guidance at 72-96 h. Beyond day 4, wind shear from the longwave trough and cooling SSTs should lead to steady weakening as Henriette moves farther into the mid-latitudes. Even if Henriette becomes post-tropical today, given the high likelihood of regeneration back into a tropical cyclone and subsequent restrengthening, NHC plans on maintaining advisories during the post-tropical phase.

Re the humidity

Feels sooooooo much better outside after taking our dog for a long walk

Yes it was. The report from the spotter was at 139pm per Radarscope and warning issued at 141pm

Nothing is up on SPC... but weather might have canceled/delayed it

Confirmed waterspout earlier in the Bird River east of Chase, MD. .. numerous swift water rescues ongoing in Bel Air

Watch up till 8pm

I will guess it will be 2.33"

Nothing really initiating in N VA yet... a couple showers/storm N of DC metro... Baltimore metro already has numerous storms
