Eskimo Joe Posted October 8 Share Posted October 8 19 minutes ago, high risk said: We need to set reasonable expectations for overnight. A number of CAMs suggest that there will be a narrow WSW-ENE swath of just over 0.50" somewhere between Alexandria and Baltimore, but much of the local area will be fortunate to see 0.25". Clear Spring mesonet site already M1.68" of rain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

high risk Posted October 8 Share Posted October 8 1 hour ago, Eskimo Joe said: Clear Spring mesonet site already M1.68" of rain. I don't consider that the "local area", but to each his own. Western MD has been consistently proved to get a significant rainfall from this event, and it has played out. The model QPF for the DC-Baltimore corridor is notably less, but there will be a corridor that jackpots over 0.50". Let's hope that ends up being a wide corridor. edit: and OF COURSE, the NAM Nest comes in way wetter for everyone within seconds after I type my comment...... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could be that it got some debris in it. Someone will be up there tomorrow to inspect / clear it out. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
