The casual person will think its ok to go golfing or boating or hang out in low lying areas based on EJ's meh of all things weather.

He's a professional so the run of the mill stuff isn't going to impress him.

Ton of electricity with this storm. Wow.

Hopefully we can get some 3'' hour rates for multiple hours today. My hope is one day we can get a harvy and florence and get a couple feet of rain over a couple days.

Look at this pic I got here in Upstate NY. 

When are ya moving back south??

Do y'all cover Hampton roads? 

Why don't people like humidity? I love that swamp feeling and reminds me we do not live in the North. If you don't like it, you are at the wrong latitude on the East coast. Went on a 5 mile hike this afternoon at great falls and it was beautiful!

Ellicott City has to be nervous on a day like today. 

The odds of a 1000 year flood 3 years so close together are.... 1/1000. Past events have no influence on odds of a particular event! Haha 

LOVE these dews. I'm hoping we get some 80+ later this month. 

Did a quick search and what I'd give to be in Savannah right now. 95/75 HI 108. 

I thought people were calling bust an hour ago? There's still a bunch we don't understand. They lower tornado probs and then first storm of the day is spinning with potential touchdown...

         perhaps some modest supercell structure, but the low level wind profile is meh, and the 88/70 environment would cause it to quickly gust out.

Dare we start saying the D word?

Tornado Watch..

URGENT - IMMEDIATE BROADCAST REQUESTED Tornado Watch Number 274 NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 145 PM EDT Tue May 28 2019 The NWS Storm Prediction Center has issued a * Tornado Watch for portions of Western New Jersey Extreme east central Ohio Pennsylvania The extreme northern West Virginia Panhandle * Effective this Tuesday afternoon and evening from 145 PM until 1000 PM EDT. * Primary threats include... A few tornadoes possible Scattered large hail likely with isolated very large hail events to 2 inches in diameter possible Scattered damaging wind gusts to 70 mph likely SUMMARY...Scattered severe thunderstorm development is expected this afternoon from Ohio into Pennsylvania, and storms will spread generally eastward through this evening. The storm environment will be favorable for supercells capable of producing large hail and damaging winds. A more favorable environment for tornadoes is expected across northern and eastern Pennsylvania into western New Jersey as the low levels destabilize. The tornado watch area is approximately along and 60 statute miles north and south of a line from 40 miles west southwest of Franklin PA to 35 miles north northeast of Trenton NJ. For a complete depiction of the watch see the associated watch outline update (WOUS64 KWNS WOU4). PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS... REMEMBER...A Tornado Watch means conditions are favorable for tornadoes and severe thunderstorms in and close to the watch area. Persons in these areas should be on the lookout for threatening weather conditions and listen for later statements and possible warnings.

Welcome to the forum. You're a legend for riding out Florence when it was progged to be a Cat 5 and you live on the beach.

Does it get better than this? Absolutely love this weather. Only thing would be if dews were close to that 75 degree mark but we are on our way!!

The cell which moved from Winchester across northern Montgomery probably produced that. Cloud tops maxed out around 50kft which is a good size for this part of the country. 235k power outages in the DC area but that pales in comparison to the derecho where each county had about 240k in the dark for days.

If only this happened a month from now with higher dew points/temps with full sun from morning on and some extra sun altitude. There's no coincidence the derecho happened in late June. Could argue that's the absolute peak time to maximize a storm around here.

One of the best storms in a while. Wow!

Is there anything worse than north east spring? Not sure how y'all do it. Looking at your 10 day and ours looked like that in March...

Gah y'all would love Louisiana.

We get a storm like that every day for 4-6 months.

You have a beautiful state that's for sure. Do you think y'all will ever move back down there or are you in MD for the long haul?

April 2019 averaged 62.4 degrees at DCA, second all-time in DC to the 63.8 recorded in April 2017.  However, precipitation was only 2.24 inches -- the first below normal month at DCA since October 2018.

Two historically warm years out of 3, with last year being historically chilly if I remember correctly? Doesn't seem like DC has "average" months all that often in the spring.

I’m roasting out here. New England has made me soft.

Come back down to the south! We do warm well April to October! Last I checked boston is still in the 50s into mid may. AWFUL

How are y'all still hoping for snow? Isn't everyone ready for spring lol where you can actually enjoy time outside?

I HATE the warm seasons with a burning passion. Hate the flowers, overgrown everything, bugs, pollen, sunburns, sweating just from going outside. There is literally nothing I look forward to. I like the beach in warm weather, but I don't need our summers to have that. I could go to a Florida beach for vacation during the winter if I wanted to experience it. 

Basically, you could wipe out our Spring and Summer and I wouldn't lose one ounce of sleep over it. Don't get me wrong, I love a nice 55 degree sunny day! I just wish that was our max in the warm seasons. That would be beautiful! Does anyone know a place where Summer temps top out between 55-65 degrees on average? 

Alaska lol

It can still lay even on roads. 4/9/16 and 3/21/18 both had roads completely cave where I live- and this was in the middle of the day.

You are farther south than me so I appreciate the perspective. Thank you.

I’m sorry. I don’t know you personally. But when you continue to argue that something can’t happen when it actually has happened numerous times including in the very near past it’s too easy. That is a dumb argument. 

Fair enough. You have the stats, I don't. I'll concede that. Maybe I'm a micro climate, but I've witnessed stickage issues mid day even with February sun. Naturally I'm skeptical due to my personal experience on the blacktops 'round here IMBY.

You always take the jabs. Look I hope it snows. This winter has been a letdown it would be nice to go out with a bang. We are all on the same team for 1 more shot..
