    I strongly feel this way about Severe Thunderstorm Warnings, which I am not convinced anyone takes seriously at this point. Tornado Warnings… imo technology has advanced to where we can be fairly confident based on radar that a tornado is occurring or imminently possible. As long as folks still take those warnings seriously, and I think they do, I don’t have issues with their pace. I do think it’s somewhat fair to say that tornado warnings the way you’d prefer them have been somewhat replaced by PDS warnings, at least in populated areas, which I’m not sure is good comms strategy. I don’t think most normal folks recognize the difference between a warning, PDS warnings, and emergency.

    Rare time I get sorta pummeled and you don’t. I’m getting the 60dbz stuff over DC. edit: little bit of hail

    Scud was rotating overhead. Cool unthreatening clouds.

    What’s new. One of the most boring summer storm seasons in the Beltway I can recall. Bring on the heartbreaking winter misses.

    It’s worse than what I said. I meant two blocks from DCA. Not even the part of Crystal City with “elevation.” Thought about Falls Church but decided the commute would be too far, so Reston is way too much!

    Think I'm moving to a new apartment in the fall. Out of the D.C. urban zone... into the Arlington urban zone literally 2 blocks from Crystal City. Might be a downgrade

    In my experience it doesn't work in Tapatalk but works otherwise

    I mean, you could Google “CAPE severe” and get there… but it’s Convective Available Potential Energy. :wink:

    Germantown-area TOR 2 years ago, maybe? Not sure I’ve got the year right

    Helluva Beltway screw job so far. Heard a little thunder? I find it hard to believe the WV stuff totally evaporates but not feeling great

    I think this would be a good call but I’m doubting it happens. Unfortunately (or fortunately) I need to work my real job Saturday morning so I’ll be spared the smoke.

    What’s it take to get one of these storms overhead in DC? Just want some fun T&L

    Can see all that lightning across the bay from my window in D.C. Pretty decent show at this distance.

    I'll take a consolation "best rain guesser" prize

    Stuff off to the west looks like small potatoes at the moment. Guess we’ll see.

    I don’t necessarily want it to storm in DC (I like planes and fireworks) but it’s amazing it hasn’t. It seems inevitable it at least rains, but lucky for the event planners so far…

    Watching storms try to go up from my rooftop between the air show. Due East from the capitol trying to get going.
  22. NorthArlington101
    Would love a storm to roll through before the fireworks to cool us off. Between the flyovers and the fireworks maybe? Another one after the fireworks to clear the smoke out would be great, but that’s probably too much to ask for.

    I had to eat my words pretty hard off the jump… I really thought we hadn’t hit 100 since 2012. Anyway, was out in the sun from 7-11am. Usually not a big deal, but that totally took me out. Just woke up from like a 3 hour recovery nap. Seriously draining.

    Too bad this weather is so awful. Would like to be making the "best" of all the festivities this weekend. At least my apartment seems to be kinda in the flight path. 99.
