  1. Just had a nice 2 min downpour. The cell had looked more robust just before it got to my house. Would have liked some noise with it but will not complain with getting some rain.
  2. Small pop up all day. Got our second double rainbow of the week out of this last one just a few minutes ago.
  3. Yep. Getting a direct hit with a cell right over my house currently.
  4. I am seeing lightning flashes off of those storms in Southern MoCo.
  5. Absolutely stunning double rainbow over here. Honestly these photos do not show the brilliance of color of this.
  6. I am over the moon happy with the storm I got here. All I wanted was a good amount of rain. It has been so dry over here and while I will miss that extra stuff coming out of WV I got 1.57” out of that line. My grass and flower beds bow down to the storm gods in praise. And for a bonus got some decent wind, thunder and lightning. One strike was well after the line had moved past. Now I just need a storm at night. Sorry to see that some had major damage or lost power. I hope that the clean up and time without goes quick.
  7. My daughter has a friend from school who lives in York. She said there is an electrical pole on fire near her.
  8. The lightning on the back side of the line is still going strong. Getting a show still here.
  9. @yoda Thanks! Also raining coming to an end here. 1.56” in my station. Temp down to 68.
  10. That initial line punch came from the NW into here. Now looking on the back side of that bow stuff is moving up from the SW and will dump some more on me. 1.16" currently and still coming down.
  11. That tornado warning just popped up on my radar South of Philomont.
  12. Nope no go. It is telling me that my file would exceed the total allowed size of 8.978kB, and was skipped.
  13. I have tried that and other options no go. We are about to get smacked here!
  14. Wow the line is advancing on my house. The colors are crazy! I would post a photo but I can never make it small enough to post.
  15. I just asked my oldest if she wanted to get in the car and go over to 340 to take a look.
  16. NWS Baltimore just did a live Facebook information post. Being very concise and to the point about taking this system seriously. They said it was there first ever live post and I hope that many people have watched it.
  17. I got a SWS for that storm up in Washington Co. Under Damage threat it says Considerable. I am familiar with the new terms in the warnings so this caught my eye. Saying golf ball sized hail and 70 mph wind gusts
  18. The oldest kid just got an email from American U. She is not in summer classes but the email was to tell students on campus that things are shutting early today due to inclement weather.
  19. Thanks! She is 19 so I think I will tell her to take 2 hours out of her day and do the online course. I know we have a few NW DC folks in here. She goes to AU.
  20. Want to keep the severe thread clear so putting this here for more eyes. How old do you have to be a trained spotter? I am a spotter but my oldest has the same interest in weather that I do. I told her she should take the course and get trained. She goes to school in DC, will be moving back down there in 3 weeks, so splits her time between there and Frederick. I just looked and you can take the course online now if you cannot in person or virtual.
