IronTy Posted September 4 Share Posted September 4 Heck of a storm. We lost power for several hours overnight. Tons of thunder and we ended up with 0.94" of rain. I think that should get me through the rest of the growing season. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
H2O Posted September 4 Share Posted September 4 Sounds like I missed a bad one. Woke up to over 15 traffic reports of mostly downed trees. Had some wind gusts here near Exmore but storms died out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mrs.J Posted September 4 Share Posted September 4 Got missed by much of that rain. Picked up .12 on the backside. The older Ms J texted me close to midnight last night saying the rain woke her up in Bethesda it was coming down so hard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlizzardNole Posted September 4 Share Posted September 4 I slept through it but woke up to 1.8 in the gauge! Glad we didn't lose power - it seems to happen easily here. If you haven't seen it, check out the video of the Navy yard in the severe thread. WOW Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dailylurker Posted September 4 Share Posted September 4 This has been a very impressive week for PA. It's one of the more impressive non tropical events I can remember. Wave after wave of big time storm complexes for 5 straight days. Some places up there saw more thunderstorms than I've seen in the past 3 years combined. My backyard missed everything. I've had a couple passing showers from dieing storms. Drought is still the base state in my area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mdhokie Posted September 4 Share Posted September 4 Time for the daily monsoon rains in the Western Maryland mountains. Feels more like Florida. We don't seem to get normal rain anymore. Its blow out the gullies and wash away all that mulch and top soil from your new landscaping type rains. Even put in rip rap and culverts but those get overwhelmed.

My PWS recorded .35", but given that it fell in :10, and was falling sideways most of that time, maybe more? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was nice and sunny and then suddenly black! I missed the storm last night but saw a lot of lightning on my camera. Supposedly this front finally pushes through tomorrow?

MillvilleWx Posted September 4 Share Posted September 4 Late to the party, but I got absolutely crushed in the Lowlands around 1215-1230 last night. Woke me up out of my sleep. Thunder shaking the house and torrential rain. I managed to go back to sleep, thankfully, but that was a crazy little stretch when it came through. Reminded me of nocturnal storms in the Mississippi Valley. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Supposedly this front finally pushes through tomorrow? A sudden change of plans yesterday evening saw me driving up late last night as opposed to first thing this morning. I did not know about the storms coming until I hit I-70 around 9PM. I only wish I had a dash camera to capture the wind and lightning I drove through - I sort of timed it perfectly to get the peak action between Sideling Hill and Big Savage. Wasn't exactly the smartest night to be driving a 40 year old pickup across the Alleghanies, but I live to tell the tale. Looking forward to having the windows open Sunday and Monday. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This was the windiest storm of the year. Pretty intense 15 minutes. Best of all, the timing killed the afternoon heat! 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Drove that stretch a lot, in all kinds of bad weather, before I-68 was there. Rt 40/48 was a thrill ride crossing those hills, especially in thick fog or blowing snow. Glad you and the truck made it safely. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eskimo Joe Posted September 4 Share Posted September 4 Some cool weather new for Maryland/DC folks. Montgomery County is developing an extension to the statewide mesonet with a focus on suburban and urban tripod stations. This will be known as the Montgomery County Micronet, with at least four (4) additional stations coming online this autumn. The first site just went online this past week. @wxmeddler and I rushed this site to completion as the MCS dove south from PA and we got it online maybe 10 min before the storms came in. When all is said and done, we'll have stations about ever five to seven miles in Montgomery County. 6 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jebman Posted September 4 Share Posted September 4 Congrats on the rains, DMV! Welcome to a Record Nino Autumn! You are all in perfect position for this! The Plume is coming straight at you! It's a massively East-Based Nino and you are right in the middle of it! Enjoy all those rains! There's a hell of a lot more where those came from! Look out for a Roided-up STJ!
