2019 ish I think

2017 we had one that ripped all my fascia off. I remember vividly because I couldn't get anyone to fix for a week and the aluminum dangling and hitting the house could be heard probably three streets over. We had to sleep at a friends' place.

High Wind Watch hoisted for all of MD. CTP will follow suit, which makes sense as this wind event will be the worst we've seen in years and years it appears. Hey that rhymes. 

 

Sterling must not have updated their maps because the only watches that I see currently issued in MD is in the western part of the state - most of MD has nothing at this time.

Ahh I misread their notice (to be fair it’s line 20 lines long) lol

I’ve talked since last weekend about tomorrow’s severe weather in the Midwest. What’s coming Tuesday for them as modeled is worse than 2011. That system will hit PA next Wednesday, where if timing is right would create strong storms here as it’ll hit our warm sector (highs next Wednesday might hit mid 70s in the LSV).

March 24, 2023 the apple and peach tree buds are pushing. Wondering if these are effected from the current cold this morning. This orchard is about 3 miles as the crow flies from me.

As long as the buds are still closed there fine .  They probably also spray with a anti transpirant when needed . Unlike weather I know my Ag and Aq shit pretty good, been living it all my life.

If I copied YouTubers forecasts word for word and then toted their forecasts as my own I sure as hell wouldn't ask for a cookie too. The April 2011 outbreak was a three day event that was  also talked about several days in advance and the wording was far more intimidating  than the spc has to this point. A big day next tuesday sure, but the only people I see comparing the potential to 2011 are youtube weenies. Unfortunately because of the way youtube works and pays it's the worst place to get accurate forecasts days in advance unless you want to think every storm is the next superstorm. I think YouTube really raised people's expectations this winter way too high and hyped storms to preposterous levels and it spread from there.

   As the western trough ejects on Day 6/Tuesday, potential significant
   severe thunderstorms will be possible far eastern OK toward
   southeast MO and vicinity. Rich boundary-layer moisture will be in
   place amid steep midlevel lapse rates courtesy of an EML advecting
   across the region from the Mexican Plateau. This will supply plenty
   of instability with stronger vertical shear accompanying the
   ejecting trough. There is some uncertainty among medium range
   guidance on the northern extent of better moisture return and hence
   severe potential. This is mostly driven by differences in surface
   low, dryline and warm front positions related to somewhat different
   ejection of the upper trough. However, guidance is in very good
   agreement with respect to the southern portion of the risk area.
   Supercells capable of all severe hazards, some potentially
   significant, will be possible. 

In 2011 it was clear by day 6 that something historic was very possible at least according to Dr Greg Forbes and the spc.

   Valid 011200Z - 021200Z

   ...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS SATURDAY ACROSS
   PARTS OF EASTERN OHIO...MUCH OF PENNSYLVANIA...SOUTHERN INTO CENTRAL
   NEW YORK STATE AND PARTS OF NORTHWESTERN NEW JERSEY...

   ...SUMMARY...
   Strong thunderstorms may develop and organize east of the lower
   Great Lakes into the Hudson Valley and northern Mid Atlantic region
   Saturday, accompanied by a risk for severe wind gusts.

   ...Synopsis...
   While another significant short wave trough begins to dig within the
   main branch of mid-latitude westerlies, near/offshore of the Pacific
   Northwest coast, downstream flow is forecast to become less
   amplified into and through a confluent regime to the east of the
   Canadian Prairies and U.S. Great Plains during this period.  To the
   south of a lingering vortex of Arctic origins (initially centered
   over southern Hudson Bay), models suggest that a vigorous short wave
   perturbation will dig to the southeast of James Bay and come in
   phase with an initially more substantive perturbation within this
   regime.  The consolidating mid-level troughing may shift across New
   England into the Canadian Maritimes by 12Z Sunday.

   Associated forcing for ascent is forecast to support strong
   secondary surface cyclogenesis across the St. Lawrence Valley
   vicinity, while an initial occluded low over lower Michigan weakens.
    A conglomerating trailing cold front appears likely to advance east
   of the Appalachians and offshore of much of the Atlantic Seaboard
   into the Gulf coast vicinity by the end of the period.

   A narrowing pre-frontal plume of higher precipitable water content
   may advect across much of New England and Mid Atlantic coastal areas
   by mid afternoon, and the southern Atlantic coast later in the day. 
   Within this regime, weak lapse rates and/or lingering convective
   cloud cover and precipitation may limit appreciable destabilization
   Saturday, particularly to the north of the southern Atlantic
   Seaboard.

   Strongest mid-level cooling and height falls are forecast to
   overspread the upper Ohio Valley/lower Great Lakes region through
   the northern Mid Atlantic and western New England by early Saturday
   evening.  This may provide the focus for the primary severe weather
   potential for this period.

   ...Lower Great Lakes into Hudson Valley/northern Mid Atlantic...
   Lower/mid-tropospheric subsidence/warming likely will be in the
   process of overspreading the upper Ohio Valley and lower Great Lakes
   region at 12Z Saturday, before nosing east-northeastward through the
   day.  This is expected to allow for appreciable surface heating and
   boundary-layer mixing to contribute to low-level destabilization
   prior to the arrival of the mid-level forcing for ascent and
   cooling, which is expected to provide support for low-topped
   thunderstorm development.  This may impact areas to the east and
   south of Lakes Erie and Ontario Saturday morning into midday, with
   convection possibly consolidating into an organizing convective
   system.  Given the shear and the strength of the mean flow (40-50+
   kt in the lowest 6 km), coupled with the steepening low-level lapse
   rates, activity may support severe wind gusts while spreading
   east-northeastward across southern New York and Pennsylvania through
   the afternoon, perhaps as far east as the Hudson Valley vicinity by
   early Saturday evening.  Farther east, in areas not impacted by the
   cool Atlantic marine layer, a gradually waning risk for strong wind
   gusts may continue into the evening hours.

   ...South Atlantic Seaboard...
   Strong deep-layer mean flow and shear will be at least conditionally
   supportive of organized severe weather potential on Saturday, given
   sufficient destabilization.  At least widely scattered strong to
   severe thunderstorm development still appears possible.  It remains
   unclear whether instability and mid/upper support will become
   sufficient for anything more widespread, but higher severe
   probabilities could still become more apparent and introduced in
   later outlooks for this period.

K. Schlegel Fruit Farm here's no denying it, after a crisp start this morning, the sun is shining, the bees are buzzing and the buds are breaking! This beautiful weather, although it is a bit early, gets things moving. Apricots and plums are in full bloom, and peaches are right behind them.
Breathtaking beauty:

28 here, Could be an interesting Saturday coming up.

Interesting yes.  

Will the wind blow....yes.

Am I worried.....no.

Whats gonna happen is gonna happen. 

I'm no severe lover, but as a weather guy, I can understand the fascination that some have for it (and yes I love me a good Tboomer - just no damage to ANYONE please and thanks)

That said, alot of what we see on SM or Youtube, and even sometimes in here... as most of us know...is just clickbait.

GREAT pics man.  You have a good eye for the camera.
