    this one might actually be severe by the book. had some real healthy gusts move through and still going. pouring here still.
  2. 87storms
    this storm means business.
  3. 87storms
    direct hit here. downpours and dark. saw some cg, but nothing too crazy yet.
  4. 87storms
    yea, i'm not gonna be dodging this one. starting to hear thunder in the distance. this is gonna be a banger.
  5. 87storms
    getting pretty dark to the west.
  6. 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.

    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.

    the core is now moving ssw of me, but those in line are going to enjoy these.

    south florida-level lighting is the best description from these cells.
  11. 87storms
    the lightning with these storms moving through means business. definitely severe from a cg perspective. most this year imby.
  12. 87storms
    these are some serious rain producers. had one come through a little while ago.
  13. 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.
  14. 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.

    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.
  16. 87storms
    early congrats for the 270 split.
  17. 87storms
    not much in the way of storms firing past this first round. maybe the atmosphere got tired of raining. i am intrigued by the cell moving through boonsboro though. that would be a direct hit for mby.
  18. 87storms
    the lightning showing up from that cell near leesburg is crazy. would make for an interesting bike ride on the c and o.
  19. 87storms
    frederick fringe in progress, but central moco looks outstanding. will see if the hagerstown cells make it past catoctin. otherwise, forecast is looking pretty solid so far. the focus still south and east towards dc/bmore.
  20. 87storms
    there's two types of weather we do pretty well here... 1) post-mid-latitude cyclone clouds/breezy conditions (when often times the forecast is just partly cloudy). 2) thunderstorms during or at the tail end of a stagnant, classic summer-like, swampy airmass. it's game time.
  21. 87storms
    still just partly cloudy and breezy up here, especially when that outflow moved through. winds have settled a bit since then. yesterday was definitely more of a classic way to get storms with that soupy/stagnant airmass.
  22. 87storms
    the it's too windy before the storm arrives rule is in full effect up here. didn't even have to look at the radar.
  23. 87storms
    rain has come in two waves here (2nd one in progress). not a lot of thunder, but there's some. gust front brought some breezy conditions before the rain arrived.
  24. 87storms
    well i don't normally root for 90 degree weather, but i'll take it over 50/cloudy/breezy (i'm over that) or even 60 and sunny. i'd lock in upper 70s to low 80s if i could.
  25. 87storms
    effective thunderstorm moving through here. this really is one of, if not my favorite, kinds of weather days. great for outdoor hoops and then topped off with a thunderstorm. trails will inevitable be a mess tomorrow, though. only downside.
