    Eyeing some showers in western md. It would take a lot of work to reach the ground in the wannabe desert of Frederick, but I’ll try to stay positive.

    Can really see the push of drier air on water vapor imagery. https://www.star.nesdis.noaa.gov/GOES/sector_band.php?sat=G16&sector=ne&band=08&length=12

    I did manage a light rain shower while shooting hoops early this evening (which actually felt kinda great), but otherwise probably only received about 0.25" the last 2 days with maybe a similar amount on Thursday (though I was in Bmore, so I can't confirm). This has not been a very exciting weather year in Frederick, that's for sure.

    The west wind has been cranking within the rain fortress of the city of Frederick. Definitely not gonna score a storm with this setup. LWX had mentioned the flow upstairs which seems to be more beneficial to those away from the effects of downsloping.
  5. 87storms
    I'm pretty much convinced mby is gonna need a major pattern reshuffle to get any significant rain. Time and again, the precip has been generally skipping over areas along the Catoctins and redevelops further east. Today is following that exact same trend.
  6. 87storms
    Sun is popping out here. Hopefully that helps fuel the next round.
  7. 87storms
    They really do. We usually just need a soupy airmass. From there, it doesn't take that much to wring out a storm or two.
  8. 87storms
    The humidity rn is swamp level. I was starting to miss it. Didn’t really get a grade A flush hit as the storms continue to follow a pattern of redeveloping further south and east due to the upper level flow (though today was a step in the right direction), but this is the type of airmass that can produce.

    I hope whoever is at Schaeffer Farms right now has mud tires.

    Got a couple minutes of a gusty torrent at the peak. Certainly a needed storm.
  11. 87storms
    Not the wildest storm I’ve seen here, but gusty with at least a moderate downpour. Kinda like an appetizer storm.
  12. 87storms
    Finally getting a prime hit.
  13. 87storms
    The sky definitely has that active look to the west. Hearing some rumbles in the distance.
  14. 87storms
    Well...there's a chance imby. Doesn't look like a flush hit, but I might get clipped. As has been typical all season long...it'll be another TBD.
  15. 87storms
    Visited my cousin in Canton yesterday and looks like I missed a couple of imby cells. Looking at radar loops, I don't think I missed anything too dramatic, but it does look like upwards of 0.25" fell. Still waiting on a flush hit...hoping to capitalize on some of this heat.
  16. 87storms
    Just got to bmore, so obviously Frederick will now get a storm…and potentially a train of them lol.
  17. 87storms
    The actual storms to tracking ratio is about the same as it was in the winter…not ideal.
  18. 87storms
    Typical July summer day in the mid-Atlantic.
  19. 87storms
    That was a nice revenge goal lol.
  20. 87storms
    The USWNT has there work cut out for them against Netherlands

    Definitely dry up in the Watershed. Biked one of the trails up there today and where there’s sometimes a stream, there was no stream. It’s great for mtb, but pretty much that whole area could use water. What’s wild is that it’s been humid lately…we just aren’t getting a widespread system that can generate enough lift to overcome the issues we face in the valleys like downsloping, etc. I can only assume the primary issue is due to a persistent, multi-seasonal nw flow without much gulf interaction. I could be wrong, but I haven’t seen any reasons being brought up beyond that.
  22. 87storms
    Today has turned into a pretty classic, simple summer day. No smokey haze adds some bonus points. Not sure how I feel about the incoming heat wave, but I do like that there's at least a chance to see some storms.
  23. 87storms
    Well at least Earth is still tilted on its axis. We have that going for us...for now.
  24. 87storms
    Frederick’s storm shield did a fantastic job again today. Maybe the incoming heat wave will melt it and a new pattern will emerge.
  25. 87storms
    Some storms developing to the west. I’m prob too far north, but Moco has a chance.
