    Looks like they were thorough. My neighborhood just missed out on that microburst lol. Obviously in hindsight I probably should have followed it but that’s really hard to do in an urban environment.

    Hard to get one to ride up with a big trough there. I’d love to see one of those AEWs cross the Atlantic and pop as it’s rounding the flexing WAR in a few weeks. If there’s a window for us, I think it’s now to about Labor Day. After that…too many fronts IMO and Nino climo.

    The season so far has been ahead or well ahead of climatology to date in virtually every metric. Even more so with niño climatology. I’m bearish on the season, but I still think we’re at a point where the season can go either way. August needs to produce, though. That’s absolutely critical.

    For the ACATT crew. It’s coming.

    Two invests in the Atlantic.

    Not our region, but I just find this incredibly powerful. I’ve been to Arlington a few times and it’s always humbling. This is on another level IMO.

    Awesome day. I came back home after the original storm mid-afternoon and didn’t plan to head back out. At around 6:15 or so I saw the discrete cell on RadarScope just to my north. I originally didn’t think much of it until it started to strengthen a bit. Nothing stood out on radar, but what was notable was while there was no lightning on the app, I had frequent thunder. I look outside my north facing window around 6:20 and there’s a clear darkening and updraft. Nothing special, but the updraft gets my attention and I go outside to do a time lapse. I could see rotation happening in real time as the storm crosses over the hill. After a few minutes, I get in my car and go to the top of the hill to look ENE. Rotation is still clear but messy, and I am a bit obstructed by trees. When I reposition on the hill to look more due east, it looked legit. The photos suck but I could see very clear definition of the storm aloft. Right after that I lost visual of the storm I headed to my spot to capture the line to the west roll through. The line did not disappoint. Great day here. Finished with 1.28” on the day with 12.80” now for the month. Banner month for me personally between the Midwest chase and some good storms and 2 FF events here.

    That’s amazing!!

    How about that @Damage In Tolland. Started spinning near me and over you and finally tightened enough to get warned. I have time lapses I can post after this line of what I saw.

    Wish I had a better picture but despite the radar appearance that cell now to my east was pretty legit. Just wasn’t strong enough rotation. It legit started some motion just to my north.

    Cell to my north doesn’t look like much on radar, but it has some legit movement to it.

    Just have to hope whatever comes out of it is a flood and not a tinkle.

    Legit high end severe down in the MA the last few days. Very impressive.

    Hopefully we can get some real action here later. DC area is getting smoked right now. 73kt (84mph) recorded in DC proper. Insane down there.
  16. WxWatcher007
    84 mph gusts in NW DC per NWS. Wow.

    Obviously not a tornado. Big time straight line winds. What a day.

  22. WxWatcher007
    Look at those velocities in DC. Wow.
  23. WxWatcher007
