  1. The Catoctin rain shadow was simply too powerful today.
  2. Absolutely loving this weather. Just got an hour+ of hoops in. Very light wind. Perfect conditions. Atmosphere seems ripe for popup storms, too.
  3. Healthy rain shower wrapping up here.
  4. Keeps changing lol. Was down to like 30 or 40% yesterday and mostly sunny.
  5. Looks like only scattered stuff starting this weekend and we’re also dealing with wildfire smoke again today. We might need another tropical storm soon.
  6. Today was nice, but let’s be honest…this type of pattern is why we’re in a drought and require tropical remnants lol. I’m curious as to what’s going on at the upper levels. My novice hunch is that lp cores are riding too far north as a general trend, leaving us with scraps. We saw that pretty often the last couple years. Maybe next weekend is part of the overall change.
  7. I’m just glad there’s been sun today. Nw flow in fall thru spring can bring stratus decks, especially closer to the mountains.
  8. I’ve biked there a few times. That trail (big red) is a grinder. I’ll usually chill for a bit by the beach area afterwards.
  9. Still pretty humid out today. I don’t mind it…but it was noticeable. Looks like some storms forming near dc, tapping into that leftover moisture.
  10. Drove through the monsoon on rt 70 east towards 29 this morning. Some cars were pulled over. That was the kinda rates I saw Wednesday evening. Still early August, so maybe we can weasel our way into another tropical situation this year.
  11. Hardest rain here was Wednesday night. Since then, it’s been mostly just moderate showers. Little more breezy now.
  12. Drove through monsoons on 70 west to Frederick.
  13. Current radar looks fun. Love these tropical remnant systems.
  14. One of these days I need to own a home and buy a pws. Goals. Seeing 1”+ totals near mby. Definitely lucked out today.
  15. There's another blob to your ENE. That might be the one.
  16. This is basically a majestic rainfall. Gonna be over an inch here, i would assume. Looks like some other cells building from the 270 split precip factory.
  17. It's a pulse-y line, but all it takes is getting under one cell. These things are putting down the goods.
  18. 2nd round of "I can hear the rain from inside" type of rates in progress.
  19. Straight up monsoon outside rn. Maybe the heaviest downpour I've seen since I moved here. This will help the water table here, no question about that.
  20. Got rain shadow'd a bit yesterday. The combo of the Catoctin's up the street from me and the valley down the street, is a force. Side note...DESI (ensemble scenarios) was mentioned at the AMS meeting yesterday (I was fortunate to attend this via work). The stats part seems pretty user-friendly so far... https://sites.gsl.noaa.gov/desi/?x4dLocations=["City"]&chart=x1d&lat=39.41427&lon=-77.41054&theme=dark&timeZone=local&hourFormat=12&x4dviewState={"latitude"%3A40.5%2C"longitude"%3A-100%2C"bearing"%3A0%2C"pitch"%3A20%2C"zoom"%3A4}&dset=HREF-CONUS&clusHghlgt=true&x4dMapStyle=2D&x4dMaps={"basemap"%3A{"value"%3A"Mapbox"}%2C"mapboxBasemap"%3A{"value"%3A"Satellite"%2C"parentValue"%3A"mapboxBasemap"}}&preferredFontSize=14
  21. Got invited to the ams community conference today. First time attending one of these. Interesting discos centered around data/AI and topping off with how to improve nwp as well as public/private collaboration.
  22. I got snookered here, too. Did better the day before.
  23. Clumpy, tropical raindrops in progress.
  24. Pretty healthy cg lightning nearby.
