Isolated storm headed right for me.

Nice windy rain cooling things down to 70 degrees .10 in the bucket

Wish every day could be like today

Unfortunately I got screwed with that too. Only a trace in the rain gauge. Congrats to Martinsburg I think. Rain magnet needs some further calibration.

You get screwed more often than Mia Khalifa. 

[katabatic]

89.1 which is the 4th highest temp I've recorded since moving here in the fall of '22. Not a long time obviously but still rather impressive warmth.

Kearneysville… storm cloud blew right over us but I could see it raining just to the north.

           Actually, all of the CAMs this evening suggest scattered convection in the area Tuesday evening which is nice to see.

LWX doesn't seem to be buying it

High 89.0, low 58.0. Warm/hot but not at record levels (92 in 1996). Currently 62.1/57.5 at 7:30 am with partly cloudy skies.

Saw my first spotted lanternfly (black with white dots) waiting for the bus. I promptly killed it.

Where was it headed, maybe if you let it get on the bus it would have taken it away from your neighborhood?

[Weather Will]

12Z HRRR is very quiet for this afternoon and I just finished watering. Hopefully we will start getting some rain tomorrow.

      There arguments against it (rising heights, dubious trigger) are legit, but it's tough to ignore that most CAMs have at least a couple of cells.   I think that today warrants a 20% PoP.

90 here at 11:10am!

[SomeguyfromTakomaPark]

Hot as balls in DC

[SnowenOutThere]

Any met want to weigh in on if Spruce Knob WV should be clear enough to stargaze tonight? Seems like it’s my last day to do so for a while. 

[H2O]

Don't miss working in this at all.  93 at noon

[nw baltimore wx]

Maybe I was just a wuss yesterday, but it doesn’t feel as hot today.

West winds reported at IAD and BWI, south winds at DCA

95 here. Got some dirt to plant my pepper seedlings but will wait till later this afternoon. The sun on the deck is blistering. Will water every thing also. Would like some rain tomorrow but will not plan on it. 

[Herb@MAWS]

Likely doesn’t amount to squat but weak circulation off SE US coast seemingly drifting to the W or NW.
