the blob is not in any big hurry, if it stays together there will be some decent rainfall totals for those underneath it.  Cell movement started out S briefly, has gradually turned left and is now reported as a slight ENE movement, such as it is.  Edit:  plus there could be a bit of training effect if/when the stuff further west comes though.

MoCo cell is taking it's sweet time - probably going to be some healthy rain totals under it. radar getting messy between the MoCo cells and the big blob to the west as more little cells try to form. I'm guessing the MoCo cell is going to stabilize things so that the stuff behind will be weaker.

These seem to have some bit of SE trajectory - Columbia about to get missed S?

Need a couple more radar cycles. Those storms are just developing so hard to say which way they’re moving. And wouldn’t shock me at all if more develop over us.

Here it comes 

the corn dust I discussed recently ate up the light stuff which moved  north and around the beltway circle.  Corn dust is limited to turning light rain or snow to nothing or moderate to light.  Once the precip is solid moderate or stronger the the dust has no effects

Lotta lightning off to the N&W. According to Ventusky, there's a bit of a surface low (29.9) reflection NW of Germantown, but I don't really see it on the SPC Mesoanalysis. 

Anyway, DC is now severe warned:
