LOVE these dews. I'm hoping we get some 80+ later this month. 

Did a quick search and what I'd give to be in Savannah right now. 95/75 HI 108. 

Had the convection held off another couple of hours it would've been heat advisory territory for the I-95 counties.

I just went to Giant one mile from my house (see arrow) to pick up a few things.  Heard thunder so checked Radarscope and saw the northern MontCo pop-up.  It was still filtered sun and dry at the store.  I get almost home and there's a curtain of mod/hvy, large-drop rain just sitting stationary right about the entrance of the neighborhood.  Pretty good dose of rain -- maybe a half inch - while places 1 mile away got nothing.

The odds of a 1000 year flood 3 years so close together are.... 1/1000. Past events have no influence on odds of a particular event! Haha 

I didn't say they did...

Look at the radar - it's not unrealistic to say that it's possible for Ellicott City to get stuck under training storms or stationary storms. A few hours of that would easily cause major flooding issues for them.

Big outflow on that Frederick county cell.

Yup.  Looks like the Reisterstown storm pushed a boundary downs towards Ellicott City and that fired a bunch of stuff up.  Constant rolling thunder to my south.  The radar seems to be a bit overdoing things though at least at my location.  I was under 50dbz+ for three scans and it's not even wet under the cards or trees.

The National Weather Service in Sterling Virginia has issued a

* Flash Flood Warning for...
Northwestern Anne Arundel County in central Maryland...

* Until 445 PM EDT.

* At 141 PM EDT, Doppler radar indicated thunderstorms producing
heavy rain across the warned area. Up to two inches of rain have
already fallen. Flash flooding is expected to begin shortly.

* Some locations that will experience flooding include...
Severn, Odenton, Fort Meade, Jessup and Gambrills.

PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...

Turn around, don't drown when encountering flooded roads. Most flood
deaths occur in vehicles.

A Flash Flood Warning means that flooding is imminent or occurring.
If you are in the warned area move to higher ground immediately.
Residents living along streams and creeks should take immediate
precautions to protect life and property.

This AA county storm finally raining itself out. 2.25" which will probably be on the low side of things once I see Cocorahs tomorrow.

It sat 5 miles west of me. I stood and watched the impressive fireworks it produced. The rain totals will be impressive. I hear my local fire department in the distance headed out. I'm willing to bet there's water rescues going on.
