Blue sky here and purely tropical. Temperature is 95 and the dewpoint is 78. If that isn't enough for storms I don’t know what is.

Classic day of decent lightning and probably some real nice downpours.

Yeah, honestly shocked it cleared out as much as it did. It's 98 right now. And I'm waiting (with somewhat bated breath) for the wx radio's klaxon to fire off any minute signaling a STW.

I think that's the highest I've ever seen. Maybe cracked 80 once. The cap is definitely breaking. I'm seeing lots of lift in the clouds. 

79 dew point is like maybe once a summer ?  I hardly ever see that here as well. 

Tomato plants and eggplants are very happy in my garden. 

Be safe out there.

Speaking of lift, complex in South Central PA is now warned and moving towards Cecil county MD. and Northern DE. including me. PWATs are over 2 inches.

I am an LWX critic only for STWs.

Where are the 60mph winds that are “radar-indicated” to justify the warning? It looked a little better earlier but now I can’t find >20 and this was just reissued.

Sometimes you have to look at higher levels or TDWRs but yes they do tend to warn at low thresholds

Hoping maybe the outflow kicks off something.  That said, the HRRR has been insistent that storms don’t fire until 7/8pm.

Good to know. It’s not just the radar being lacking, but also when I look out west it’s almost full sun with minimal clouds… so that made me wonder

Was a tame heavy shower until a crazy post storm CG hit just now lol 

Sun quickly back out in Columbia and back to steamy instantly. 

Didn’t add a ton of rain, bit over 0.1”, but I’ll take it.

It just seems like something is inhibiting anything from really taking off. Outflow boundaries are being lame, storms aren't growing in coverage, ect. I hear a few rumbles from a storm that's missing me to the NE. It just started making noise. The outflow is blowing through now cooling off temperatures. It's pretty crispy here.
