    Yep, got clipped here with the first round and might get clipped again with the 2nd, but the fun part was watching CG lightning in the distance while playing some halfcourt hoops. The last game ended right before dark and before the storm moved through, so it was pretty good timing.

    The Nam is showing a little line of storms sagging south later which is somewhat believable given the sunshine/humidity factor. More tbd.

    I don't really expect anything substantial in the precip department on the downsloping side of the fence until we can get rid of this nw flow aloft. Maybe having some low level moisture off the Atlantic the next couple days will improve chances (tbd), but the upper air pattern does look more favorable early next week (another tbd).

    Even this cooler/drier pattern in the mid-Atlantic seems off. Mother Nature isn’t playing games anymore. I hiked/biked the Watershed and Little Bennett the last couple days, and can confirm the creeks/streams are as low I’ve seen them. We need a legitimate storm system.

    Light rain has somehow managed to overcome the Great Wall of Catoctin.

    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.
  10. 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.
  11. 87storms
    Sun is popping out here. Hopefully that helps fuel the next round.
  12. 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.
  13. 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.
  15. 87storms
    Got a couple minutes of a gusty torrent at the peak. Certainly a needed storm.
  16. 87storms
    Not the wildest storm I’ve seen here, but gusty with at least a moderate downpour. Kinda like an appetizer storm.
  17. 87storms
    Finally getting a prime hit.
  18. 87storms
    The sky definitely has that active look to the west. Hearing some rumbles in the distance.
  19. 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.
  20. 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.
  21. 87storms
    Just got to bmore, so obviously Frederick will now get a storm…and potentially a train of them lol.
  22. 87storms
    The actual storms to tracking ratio is about the same as it was in the winter…not ideal.
  23. 87storms
    Typical July summer day in the mid-Atlantic.
  24. 87storms
    That was a nice revenge goal lol.
  25. 87storms
    The USWNT has there work cut out for them against Netherlands
