90/76, feels like 102, ugh.  

 

Man it's hot. Drove my old Subaru to work today and apparently some mouse made a nest in the cabin air box because just turning the AC on smells like a mix of dead leaves and mouse piss.  Sophie's choice ..no AC in the car or mouse pee smell permeating everything

 

@KAOS, fyi turns out I have a condenser coil leak on my AC in the attic.  Case solved, getting fixed just in time for the cool weather.  Topped up refrigerant in the meantime and air temp dropped by 7deg instantly.  Ok sorry back to weather...

The AFD seemed a bit ominous for this evening 

 

The biggest threat today by far is the risk for flash flooding.
Slow storm motions, high PWATs, high CAPE, a stalled frontal
boundary, and parallel flow along that boundary are all
favorable for a flash flood risk. Training and slow-moving
storms are expected this afternoon. Most areas could see an inch
or two of rain, but isolated higher amounts (potentially much
higher) are possible where training occurs. Rainfall rates of
2-3"/hr will be commonplace this afternoon, but it will be a
matter of who sees those rates for the extended periods that
determines the maximum flash flood potential. The Flood Watch
was expanded to include the rest of the NW tier of the forecast
area. Definitely want to watch how this line over eastern WV
orients itself as it pushes eastward. Should this lay out east
to west over the metros, could be looking at a big issue this
evening for those areas. Some positive thoughts though are that
there seems to be just enough DCAPE at this time to ever so
slowly push storms east and south as they form new updrafts
along their own weak outflows. So hopefully this will be just
enough to get storms through quick enough to not be a major
issue.

the storm was warned for winds but wasn’t that windy. there was, and still is, a tremendous amount of house-shaking thunder and lightning. our girl kitty, who grrrrs at passing cars because she doesn’t like noise, is sound asleep under the blankets in the bedroom, lol.

Glad you finally got a flush hit since your area has been left high and dry lately!

Got a nice looking cluster to my west moving right towards us -- Sugarloaf Mtn keep yer hands off my storm!
