Eskimo Joe Posted Saturday at 11:56 PM Share Posted Saturday at 11:56 PM 11 minutes ago, high risk said: I was more booming my call for a MRGL than excited about severe potential, but I thought we’d do ok with rain this evening. It looks like a miss now, and you’re correct that we will quickly return to drought if this persists. Looks like the heat builds in at the end of the week.

frd Posted Sunday at 12:04 PM Share Posted Sunday at 12:04 PM 1 hour ago, yoda said: Day 5 outlooked from SPC Forcing does appear to be quite strong with the deepening trough, so at this point it does seem plausible for there to be at the very least some strong thunderstorms around Thursday afternoon and evening. This is supported quite well by the machine learning guidance by UCAR/NCAR which has a targeted area of severe weather potential over the Mid-Atlantic and Northeast. Will continue to monitor for trends in the guidance but regardless, the general idea that a front will bring showers and thunderstorms to the area is consistent with the guidance. Improving weather should return by Friday and into next weekend as high pressure returns. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our best derechos come with a stout EML, high pressure centered from Kentucky SE to Bermuda, and antecedent surface temps at or above 95°.

Eskimo Joe Posted Sunday at 03:42 PM Share Posted Sunday at 03:42 PM 10 minutes ago, SnowenOutThere said: So would the storm mode mainly be pop-up microbursty stuff or a squall line? Right now I would favor the "classic" microbursty line of storms. This is not a knock at SPC by any means, but I do not trust any severe weather forecast beyond D3 in the Mid Atlantic or Northeast. We simply have too many mesoscale features that can muck up a forecast. My favorite research papers for this part of the country are below, and all reference the issues that numerical weather prediction has in this part of the world.

We haven't done squall lines well at all in the Mid-Atlantic in recent years, but this setup certainly favors very organized intense convection. Pop-up stuff occurs with weak forcing, and the cold front arriving during peak heating (and it should plenty hot with high dew points) with a modestly strong upper level trough will provide strong forcing. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

high risk Posted yesterday at 03:17 AM Share Posted yesterday at 03:17 AM The Day 3 risk for Wednesday is a MRGL for the Eastern Shore and northeast MD, but evening guidance suggests that they will have to move it back tomorrow (as the new Day 2 outlook) to the west to include the DC/Baltimore area. Could even argue for a SLGT, but I'll wait until the 13Z outlook on Wednesday for that to be added. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reading the Day 3 morning disco, they were kind of splitting up the areas for best chance of all hazards severe on Thursday. They said Northern Mid-Atlantic had the better chance for all hazards while southern was more a damaging winds threat 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
