MN Transplant Posted July 8, 2012 Share Posted July 8, 2012 Models absolutely blew max temps today. The NAM was pretty good on Sunday. The GFS has been a catastrophic failure on surface temps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ian Posted July 8, 2012 Share Posted July 8, 2012 maybe we hit 106 at some pt we'll get hit by some outflow but we could still push 104 or so? 102 is pedestrian heat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mrs.J Posted July 8, 2012 Share Posted July 8, 2012 stuff further west looks to be moving more east than the first few cells.. so maybe they'll make it this way too? Just noticed that. The one that brushed by me is still moving S but you are right the stuff W of it is moving more East. I can tell you after a few drops of rain that fell it is disgusting out.

Deck Pic Posted July 8, 2012 Share Posted July 8, 2012 at some pt we'll get hit by some outflow but we could still push 104 or so? 102 is pedestrian heat. every station I follow is 2-3 degrees off its max so I dunno unless we get some crazy spike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kmlwx Posted July 8, 2012 Share Posted July 8, 2012 I like how all the weather outlets have said now for every severe threat since 6/29 that it won't be as bad as 6/29. New baseline I suppose? We should use this principle for snow now too - "not nearly as bad as Feb 2010!" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chase Posted July 8, 2012 Share Posted July 8, 2012 Yea HI is hotter today than yesterday, LWX not exactly on the ball with the heat-related headlines. Out here too. No headlines, but we were 101 a bit ago and the heat index is right around 110. Storms popping up all around me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mattmfm Posted July 8, 2012 Share Posted July 8, 2012 Gotta admit, not really sure what's keeping these storms from going up. Great cape, decent (and increasing) shear... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Herb@MAWS Posted July 8, 2012 Author Share Posted July 8, 2012 99 at IAD/BWI I think BWI only has the 3-4pm hour to make it. I'm NW of BWI and a distinctive middle deck of clouds is moving from my NW to SE toward BWI. Have only seen 95.9 so far today IMBY. To the S&E I see broken clouds and some blue sky. To the NW and I see a much more solid mid-cloud deck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eskimo Joe Posted July 8, 2012 Share Posted July 8, 2012 Gotta admit, not really sure what's keeping these storms from going up. Great cape, decent (and increasing) shear... Looks like the front is pretty diffused and isn't strong enough to get aid initiation. Plus the 12z IAD sounding shows a convective temp of 98 and most locations haven't hit that.

TalcottWx Posted July 8, 2012 Share Posted July 8, 2012 I think the lack of mid level lapse rates is definitely not helping. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ian Posted July 8, 2012 Share Posted July 8, 2012 Gotta admit, not really sure what's keeping these storms from going up. Great cape, decent (and increasing) shear... the front itself isn't that impressive.. stuff seems to be weakening coming out of that zone. best convergence isn't aligning with the front either.

Kmlwx Posted July 8, 2012 Share Posted July 8, 2012 i hope it stops soon it's kinda silly. of course it's not going to be 6/29 when was the last 6/29? It just doesn't make sense to keep comparing...the public didn't need to be told it wouldn't be like June 2008 after that event. A smattering of tweets: A significant wind damage event is about to occur. Stay tuned to@WTOP for updates, folks!] More power-killing storms on the way, DC. Fear mongering... I hate DC laypeople when it comes to weather. I wonder how they'd do in tornado alley. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ian Posted July 8, 2012 Share Posted July 8, 2012 bay breeze inching west still.. something trying to fire on it. i think the models will prob end up right that main focus is sw and south of dc. tho they kinda missed the stuff to the nw initially. the cells west are moving more easterly still, so we'll see.
