  1. FYI re the radar NOUS61 KLWX 011347 FTMLWX MESSAGE DATE: APR 01 2024 13:45:37 THE WSR-88D KLWX IS CURRENTLY OFFLINE AS TECHNICIANS ARE CURRENTLY PERFORMING REQUIRED MAINTENANCE. IT IS EXPECTED TO RETURN TO SERVICE THIS AFTERNOON. && LFR
  2. So no being missed?
  3. SLGT risk for almost all LWX CWA into S PA on Tuesday and Tuesday night
  4. Day 2 MRGL up... 0/5/5 ...Mid to Upper Ohio Valley/Central Appalachians/Mid-Atlantic... An anticyclonic mid-level flow pattern will be in place on Monday across the eastern U.S. At the surface, a quasi-stationary front is forecast to be located from southern Ohio east-southeastward into the Mid-Atlantic. This boundary will likely be a focus for convective development from the daytime hours into the overnight period. Although instability is forecast to remain weak near the boundary, strong deep-layer shear will be in place. This should support an isolated severe threat, potentially persisting for an extended period of time. Hail and isolated damaging gusts will likely be the primary concerns. The severe threat will likely be more isolated with eastward extent, mainly due to more limited low-level moisture content across the Mid-Atlantic.

  8. And now a TVS marker lol
  9. @WxUSAF what's with Radarscope showing two rotation markers?
  10. Special Marine Warnings up for the waters
  11. Too bad my Rangers will be in your way
  12. Who wants some more snow? From this mornings AFD Mountain Snow (Thursday/Friday): The first in a series of cold fronts crosses the area early Wednesday morning, as the base of the cutoff mid-level low moves across PA/NY. Colder temperatures surge into the Alleghenies by Wednesday afternoon, causing precip to transition from rain to snow by Wednesday night. Favorable dynamics and ample moisture could result in a prolonged period of upslope mountain snow. Marginal temperatures likely limit accumulations through Wednesday evening, then better chance for snow to stick Thursday into Friday. The GFS in particular is much higher than the other guidance, showing significant snow accumulations late in the week. At the very least 1-3", possibly up to 4-5", of accumulating snow is possible at the higher elevations. Light snow could fall as east as the Blue Ridge/Catoctins
  13. Morning AFD from LWX on the threat .LONG TERM /TUESDAY THROUGH FRIDAY/... An active weather pattern is likely to develop during the middle to late part of next week, bringing possibly impactful weather to the area. A strong Southern Stream Jet overspreads the area, with a broad wave of mid-level energy phasing with a digging mid-level trough from the Great Lakes. This is could bring strong to severe storms and/or a flood threat to parts of the area Tuesday. The ensuing mid-level cutoff low slowly moves east, as additional embedded shortwaves rotate around the western side of the low. This could bring mountain snow Wednesday night into Thursday, as well as windy conditions to end the week. The current temperature forecast for Tuesday is highly uncertain, and will be dependent on precip, cloud cover, and the placement of a warm front somewhere over or near the area. The area could be wedged in the cooler airmass, keeping temps in the 50s, or warm advection scours out the low-level inversion resulting in 60/70s for highs. The first in a series of cold fronts crosses the area early Wednesday morning, bringing gustier and near-normal temperatures Wednesday through Friday. Severe/Flood Threat (Tuesday/Wednesday): A warm front is forecast to be draped across the CWA early in the week, likely producing a large north to south temperature gradient. This is going to play a key role in whether we see any strong/severe storms, and/or a potential flood setup if other conditions line up. SPC has most of the area in a Slight Risk (level 2 of 5) of severe weather for Tuesday. The threat appears to be greatest in the Alleghenies and south of US-50 where there is the greatest chance of instability developing. Around 500-1000 J/kg of MLCAPE combined with a strong deep-layer shear (60- 75KT possible based on model soundings) could produce a favorable environment for all modes of severe weather. A residual severe threat is possible Wednesday in central VA. A flood threat could develop along or north of the warm frontal boundary where training storms result in heavier rain rates. These aspects of the forecast remains highly uncertain, be sure to stay tuned for additional updates in the coming days.
  14. ZCZC SPCSWOD48 ALL ACUS48 KWNS 300840 SPC AC 300840 Day 4-8 Convective Outlook NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0340 AM CDT Sat Mar 30 2024 Valid 021200Z - 071200Z ...DISCUSSION... ...Tuesday/Day 4 and Wednesday/Day 5... A positively tilted upper-level trough is forecast to move quickly northeastward into the mid Mississippi Valley on Tuesday, as an associated mid-level jet translates northeastward into the Ohio Valley. At the surface, a cold front will likely advance east-southeastward into the Ohio and Tennessee Valleys, with a moist and unstable airmass in place across the region. Scattered to numerous thunderstorms are expected to develop along and ahead of the front Tuesday afternoon. Strong deep-layer shear, associated with the mid-level jet, should be favorable for severe storms. Wind damage, hail and a few tornadoes are expected in the Ohio and Tennessee Valleys, with the severe potential extending eastward across the central Appalachians into the Mid-Atlantic. On Wednesday, the cold front is forecast to move to the Atlantic Seaboard. Ahead of the front, instability will increase during the morning. A severe threat could develop in some areas near the Atlantic coast early in the day, before the front moves offshore. Predictability is low concerning where the most favorable areas will be for strong thunderstorms.
  15. 06z GFS does have steep mid-level lapse rates though... 7 C/KM to even some 8s across the region
  16. Don't remember seeing HWOs listing severe for 5 days out before @Kmlwx @Eskimo Joe Hazardous Weather Outlook National Weather Service Baltimore MD/Washington DC 1055 AM EDT Fri Mar 29 2024 ANZ530>543-DCZ001-MDZ008-011-013-014-016>018-504-506-508- VAZ053>057-527-301500- Chesapeake Bay north of Pooles Island MD- Chesapeake Bay from Pooles Island to Sandy Point MD- Chesapeake Bay from Sandy Point to North Beach MD- Chesapeake Bay from North Beach to Drum Point MD- Chesapeake Bay from Drum Point MD to Smith Point VA- Tidal Potomac from Key Bridge to Indian Head MD- Tidal Potomac from Indian Head to Cobb Island MD- Tidal Potomac from Cobb Island MD to Smith Point VA- Patapsco River including Baltimore Harbor- Chester River to Queenstown MD-Eastern Bay- Choptank River to Cambridge MD and the Little Choptank River- Patuxent River to Broomes Island MD- Tangier Sound and the inland waters surrounding Bloodsworth Island-District of Columbia-Cecil-Southern Baltimore- Prince Georges-Anne Arundel-Charles-St. Marys-Calvert- Central and Southeast Montgomery-Central and Southeast Howard- Southeast Harford-Fairfax-Arlington/Falls Church/Alexandria- Stafford-Spotsylvania-King George- Central and Southeast Prince William/Manassas/Manassas Park- 1055 AM EDT Fri Mar 29 2024 This Hazardous Weather Outlook is for the Maryland portion of the Chesapeake Bay, Tidal Potomac River, and I-95 corridor through central Maryland, northern Virginia, and District of Columbia. .DAY ONE...Today and Tonight A Gale Warning is in effect until 6 PM for the Chesapeake Bay and adjoining estuaries north of Drum Point MD, and the tidal Potomac River from Key Bridge to Cobb Island MD. .DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...Saturday through Thursday There is a slight threat for severe weather on Tuesday into Tuesday night. All severe weather hazards are potentially at play should the threat materialize. Isolated instances of flooding are also possible. .SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT... Spotter activation is possible on Tuesday.
  17. I'd say that's some strong wording for Day 5 for our region Tuesday/Day 5... The upper-level system is forecast to move eastward into the Ozarks and mid Mississippi Valley on Tuesday. An associated cold front will likely move quickly eastward into the mid Mississippi Valley early in the day. Ahead of the front, a moist and unstable airmass is expected to be in place by midday, with scattered to numerous thunderstorms developing in the Ohio and Tennessee Valleys in the afternoon. The mid-level jet is forecast to move into the Ohio Valley by late afternoon, suggesting that a widespread severe threat will be possible. Strong deep-layer shear and lift associated with the jet would be favorable for supercells with a threat for wind damage, large hail and some tornadoes. The severe threat is forecast to extend southward into the Tennessee Valley, and eastward into the Mid-Atlantic, where scattered severe storms will be possible within a moist and unstable airmass.
  18. It looked like it at the time lol... now there is still a few showers down there
