That was some heavy rain!!

At first I didn't believe it but the rain gauge is reading 1.85 in the past 35-40 minutes. I checked a couple local weather stations on Weather Underground and they are reading 1.84, 2.0, etc.

WOW!

Still pouring across the Pataspco from you.

this is the point where analysis/paralysis sets in.  i'm gonna just sit back and enjoy the fact that i can have the screen door open and listen to rain that lasts for more than the typical 10 minute backyard summer shower.  rain in warm weather > rain in cold weather.

Updated LWX AFD:

We have launched an 18Z balloon.

Flash flood watch area remains in effect into Saturday
afternoon. Coverage expected to increase tonight with the 
heaviest rainfall as the upper low moves across the forecast
area and the surface low moves over the Delmarva. A storm total
of 2-4+ inches is possible on average over the watch area.

Although FFA extends to Greene County I remain most worried 
about northern VA up to the PA border - as I've seen in writings
this does appear to bear some similarity to Nor'easters and 
makes me think of some of the bigger snowfalls I've seen here 
where the CHO area might get 8" and central MD/eastern WV 20-25."
12Z Euro shows rapid deepening of the low tonight as it moves 
over the Delmarva and strong northeastly flow pushes moisture 
into the northern part the forecast area. Given the rainfall 
that north DC/Montgomery Co. have already received with several 
inches more possible tonight this will bear close watching.

While hydro issues are the primary threat...some severe 
thunderstorm potential does exist...with area places in a 
marginal risk from SPC. The primary threat is isolated strong 
wind gusts due to modest instability and relatively strong shear
profiles. East of I-95 has been placed in a 2% tornado threat. 
We feel spin ups could be a concern given low level helicity 
this evening. This is not in a normal quandrant on the hodograph
given the easterly flow but still bears watching.
