The Dude Posted 13 hours ago Share Posted 13 hours ago Radar indicated 60mph, but winds didn't effectively mix down to the surface here. Gusts didn't look higher than 40s. Still a fun storm 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eskimo Joe Posted 10 hours ago Share Posted 10 hours ago 18z RAOB from IAD told the tale, plenty of surface CAPE and low level lapse rates, but absolutely pitiful mid level lapse rates and no shear. Had we better timing, this would've been a legit event for everyone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

George BM Posted 10 hours ago Share Posted 10 hours ago Was in the eastern part of that destructive tagged severe thunderstorm warning earlier (Herndon, VA). As lots of others also experience, it was briefly fairly intense (by MBY standards) for a couple of minutes with sheets of rain and 40-50 mph wind gusts. The rain and wind arrived simultaneously. I also saw a small jet abort a landing on runway 19L and scale the leading edge of the rain curtain. Certainly no 80 mph wind gusts here. But it was my best storm in years.
