Well that was slightly anticlimactic. Looked all robust rolling in only to do the split that my area is known for. Did pick up .22” so far but all the fury of what was coming in the energy shifted to my North with a new storm to my South near Point of Rocks. 

Nearby rain gauges are over 0.5” here, but I think I just missed the lightning core. The peaks and valleys really do adjust systems on approach here. Can never really tell what kind of storm we’re getting until gametime.

You are correct on that. With residual left overs I have .27” in the station for today. I see that line out West but it has to get over the mountains. So thinking it will not stay intact. But could be surprised.

Home from work finally... Relaxing on the front porch ... Definitely can see lightening far to the north, must be the new cells popping SW of Winchester in Eastern WV... 3rd flood watch of the past 4 days here with a grand total of 0.12 since Friday night... But watching more important lightning in my yard -- fireflies !!!! Not many , nothing like years gone by like the 80s 90s - but more than recently ...

From this mornings HWO from LWX about the upcoming heat

An extended period of excessively hot and humid conditions is
expected Sunday through at least the middle of next week. Daily
heat indices in the afternoon and evening of 100 to 110 are
expected, and up to 115 degrees is possible.

Super sharp west-to-east cutoff on last night's rain.  I was right on the edge and got 0.5 with 1-2 inch amounts just north, while places close to my south got nothing.  Another chance today with this juicy bit from LWX:  

For now, holding off on a Flood Watch given the coverage of storms
today. Still may need one in upcoming shifts especially in and
around the Washington DC metro north along I-270 and back across
the eastern WV Panhandle where max/mean values from the CAMS
paint a solid 1-3 inches of rain with localized bullseye up to 5"
