    a little more bark than bite so far, but plenty of rain/breeze. saw some good lightning to the northwest, but might have just missed the core of that. healthy summer storm overall. looks like cells are pulsing to the east now.
  2. 87storms
    pretty legit shelf cloud streaming in from the catoctins. glad i'm not biking the 'shed right now.
  3. 87storms
    just looked outside...yea, it's about to get real here.
  4. 87storms
    getting pretty noisy here. actually, quite a bit of thunder. I might get clipped, but downtown Frederick might need a boat if these cells maintain.
  5. 87storms
    the thunder here is of the building rattling variety.
  6. 87storms
    kind of a weak sauce heat wave. not complaining by any stretch, but at least in frederick, the breeze made it feel like a notch above a typical summer day. got some hikes and some bball in the last couple days. not saying i wasn't toasty in the process lol, but we've had worse here. this was doable. what i do want are some storms to track. we need a little excitement in an otherwise fairly boring weather year so far (aside from localized events).

    I would say I picked a good week to have my bike in the shop, but no rain means the trails will probably be in primo shape...meh. (rain is a good thing, though)
  8. 87storms
    sunday is looking crispy.
  9. 87storms
    yea, the lighting is still going here even after the torrents moved through. I think things are chillin' out though. Definitely a premium grade storm here.
  10. 87storms
    i think there were at least realistically 50mph gusts at peak here, maybe higher. hard to tell from inside, but it this was a patio chair mover. only thing missing was hail.
  11. 87storms
    this one might actually be severe by the book. had some real healthy gusts move through and still going. pouring here still.
  12. 87storms
    this storm means business.
  13. 87storms
    direct hit here. downpours and dark. saw some cg, but nothing too crazy yet.
  14. 87storms
    yea, i'm not gonna be dodging this one. starting to hear thunder in the distance. this is gonna be a banger.
  15. 87storms
    getting pretty dark to the west.
  16. 87storms
    they've mostly missed my area as well (got fringed saturday, but did catch the downpours heading towards emmitsburg that day). I'm liking what I see on the radar right now.
  17. 87storms
    looks like that's continuing so far with this system. rainfall totals in the area are meager up towards schaeffer farms/germantown (contemplating biking it today). cabin john, not so much. this is in line with what i drove through coming home last saturday evening. torrential downpours along the beltway through bethesda, and not much towards frederick.

    biked little bennett yesterday which is notorious for staying muddy in some of the low lying spots. it was damp, but not too bad. I don't think this area needs several inches of rain. maybe a good soak, but i'm good on 2-4" of rain. latest nam looks like a nothing burger for northern md, but it's also been dancing back and forth each run it seems. one thing I do know is that it's humid out...like downpour humid. side note...was in va beach last weekend and the water was swimmable. thought it wouldn't be given what "feels" like a cooler summer so far. also interesting were the salps that i thought were grains of sand, but instead were swarms of jelly-like things. kinda gross, but they don't sting. in fact, they're not even jellyfish apparently. learned something new that day.
  19. 87storms
    the core is now moving ssw of me, but those in line are going to enjoy these.
  20. 87storms
    south florida-level lighting is the best description from these cells.
  21. 87storms
    the lightning with these storms moving through means business. definitely severe from a cg perspective. most this year imby.
  22. 87storms
    these are some serious rain producers. had one come through a little while ago.
  23. 87storms
    i wouldn't have guessed it and most of the people i've talked to have reiterated the same...that this feels like a cool start to the season so far. We have had some hot days, but it feels like the base state is inconsistent, if anything. I'll just say I've enjoyed June's weather more so than the previous 6-7 months.
  24. 87storms
    agreed. I'm just glad we've moved on from 55 and windy lol. Definitely feels like we had a fall, winter, fall, late spring pattern. Pretty light on storms so far as well, for the most part. Will see if today changes that and it kicks off typical Summer.
  25. 87storms
    good, i might be able to sneak an early bike ride in. got some new tires, so if it rains i'm ready. on a side note, this continues to be one of the most bizarre weather patterns i've ever seen here. the atmosphere has absolutely no idea whether it wants to be late september, mid May, or early august. I haven't been following the indices, but I'm assuming this is some sort of a blocky pattern that cold lovers would be raving about in january/february. i'm ready for classic dmv summer to begin.
