DPs are approaching 60 on southerly winds across the region - https://forecast.weather.gov/product.php?site=lwx&issuedby=LWX&product=RWR

Tornado Watch(es) coming soon in NC -- https://www.spc.noaa.gov/products/md/md0373.html

Really?

So ENH risk (because of wind)... I'll go big... as usual lol... 10% TOR hatched, 15% hail, 30 % wind hatched

DPs beginning to rise through the 50s across the region

23z HRRR sounding at DCA at 16z MON

FWIW, 23z HRRR really pumps the SBCAPE in the late morning into early afternoon... 2000+ SBCAPE... you can start seeing the increased surface instability grow as soon as 14z in the SW portions of the LWX CWA

Hmmm... LWX keeps upgrading the Wind Advisory to HWW for more and more counties... first it was St. Marys and Calvert at 430ish... just now updated again and now includes PG/Charles/King George VA/AA counties ETA: This was reason why at 430 St. Mary's and Calvert were added to HWW per the AFD:

sorry, what do you mean by "safe" spot?

Impressive... most impressive

Seems like LWX is going for it in afternoon disco

Its probably like 20 miles S of me lol... but I would expect it to come north more tomorrow tbh. But that would depend on what goes on in the SE and western Carolinas tonight

10% hatched tor is now literally just south of DC metro... EZF is included

New Day 2 is out... ENH reaches up to around EZF... 10% hatched TOR includes CHO/RIC and is also just south of EZF

18z EURO was pretty nice per @losetoa6 re SBCAPE

45 now into DC... 60 getting closer to EZF on 21z SREFs

Even cutting in half... still ridiculous

As in like > 1000 J/KG? How much we talking lol

Not going to post them as there are many -- but the soundings across the region from the 18z NAM at 18z MON are just ridiculously silly. Something we see maybe once in a long while
