Gfs and nam definitely lend support. Gefs is pretty insane with a 5+6 inch mean thru the weekend . Busy rest of the week ahead .

southmdwatcher Posted May 15, 2018 Share Posted May 15, 2018 MCD just released for our region by the SPC, 60 percent chance of a watch, just looking at the Sterling radar, the Echo tops just northwest of Mappy are increasing. With all this instability some will get great pulse storms, before the training rains set up. West of Littlestown PA and south of Gettysburg, tops of 48k ft and hail. Storms are increasing along the west end of the line and there are some storms along the Blue Ridge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

southmdwatcher Posted May 15, 2018 Share Posted May 15, 2018 I agree, but with all that instability and the Moderate Risk area north of us definitely going bonkers, I think SPC played it safe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
