BlizzardNole Posted 4 hours ago Share Posted 4 hours ago Man did my area get cut down. Forecast went from 0.5 to 0.75 for today and tonight to just 0.25 to 0.5 for tonight after nothing today. Oh well I guess the all day thick overcast killed it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RDM Posted 3 hours ago Share Posted 3 hours ago Odd - hearing a regular bout of thunder rumble from the inbound system approaching NOVA. But the Lightening app shows only a few hits out by Winchester and more to the SW. Wonder if there isn't a bug in the app and/or some sensors that are down?

CAPE Posted 1 hour ago Share Posted 1 hour ago Impressive how often there has been heavy rain wording in the AFDs with inch+ amounts in the forecast that literally yield nothing. All summer long. They must be just using AI or guessing because the globals are awful with resolving convection(not their forte) and all the mesos suck and are always all over the place. Today is a classic example. Need better hi-res models I guess. When they all depict different outcomes run to run something isn't working right. Too many forecast busts tell the story. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, KLWX last frame on Radarscope was 8:25 pm so using KDOX now. Waldorf/La Plata cell looks good if radar is accurate. Edit: severe thread says LWX is down and troubleshooting, so use Dover Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EastCoast NPZ Posted 40 minutes ago Share Posted 40 minutes ago The evening storm put down a quick .30". By far, the heaviest rain I've seen in months. .55" total for the day, which is also the most in a day in months. That's how awful this summer has been.
