high risk Posted March 11 Share Posted March 11 24 minutes ago, TSSN+ said: The area to watch Agreed. HRRR has a pretty good handle on it, and while I'm still not totally sold on the severe threat, it's moving into a more favorable environment.

paxpatriot Posted March 11 Share Posted March 11 Got a brief warning up here in Greencastle. Not the longest duration storm, but it packed a punch. Some tiny hail with it. Looks like it blew up pretty good to my east in Waynesboro, PA. I’d say anywhere along the M/D should watch out on that line. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dailylurker Posted March 11 Share Posted March 11 The line of storms west of DC has definitely gained a little juice. It's super warm and a little saucy feeling here in the lowlands. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mrs.J Posted March 11 Share Posted March 11 Passed through here. Picked up .15” of rain. Still have thunder and got a rainbow. Sun out. So happy that Mr. J got home before all this hit. 270 looks like it is absolutely getting slammed! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nomz Posted March 11 Share Posted March 11 3 hours ago, Nomz said: Almost clear in DC, although we still might have some cloud deck coming in, according to vis sat. Already 84/54 at DCA, so it will be nearly impossible for storms to get down to the surface. The HRRR and RRFS are progging ~500 CAPE peak for DC, while the NAM nest and RAP are >1000. Usually, I'd lean towards the RAP, but both it and the NAM are initializing too cold (3 degrees or so), so I'll lean towards the HRRR and RRFF, which show a kind of isolated low-topped supercell event. Maybe some small hail. never let me forecast again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What got me into weather, and what is still my favorite to forecast. To be fair I was probably right about the DC area, we just don't have enough instability because we had a local area of persistent cloud deck for basically the entire day. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WxUSAF Posted March 11 Share Posted March 11 Nice gusty shower in progress. My wife saw a lightning strike in the distance as it approached, but no T&L that I can hear or see with the rain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nomz Posted March 11 Share Posted March 11 This event is very driven by 700mb forcing. Local maxima NW of Baltimore, where the most severe storming is, and much less flow with southern extent, which is causing the southern side of the storm to be much weaker. Our temp/dew spreads are a little wider down here as well, which is not helping matters. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AdamHLG Posted March 11 Share Posted March 11 Two years ago we were hit by a direct strike and it caused $70k of damage to our house. It is incredible how the perspective changes once that has happened. . 1 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
