Phil Posted July 21, 2019 Author Report Share Posted July 21, 2019 Tremendous thunderstorm here this evening. Huge winds likely near 60mph and flashbulb lightning. Mercifully killed off what would have been one of the hottest, most humid evenings in years. There weren’t any storms in the forecast either..this was completely unexpected and largely unforecasted. Trees and limbs down all over the place. 1 Quote Live Weather Cam: https://www.youtube.com/live/KxlIo8-KVpc?si=xKLCFYWbZieAfyh6 PWS Wunderground https://www.wunderground.com/dashboard/pws/KMDBETHE62 PWS CWOP/NOAA: https://www.weather.gov/wrh/timeseries?site=F3819&hours=72 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

weatherfan2012 Posted July 22, 2019 Report Share Posted July 22, 2019 The front is just moving into western Maryland. There will be another round. quite possible but going by history we don't tend to do double rounds to well here as alot of times the first round takes out the engery for the second round.So the big question is will there be enough engery left from the first round for the seacond round. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This morning windows are up, got the fan blowing in some fresh air. Today will be a joyous break from the heat. no question with the hot air and the strong front along with upper air disturbances yesterday it was a perfect set up for quite an outbreak and sadly one person did die from the result of those storms so just because they missed certain places does not mean other places did not get hit.convective patterns are tricky beasts one house may not receive much of anything while a couple houses down the road could be getting absolutely hammered.

Phil Posted August 5, 2019 Author Report Share Posted August 5, 2019 Came back home to a mess of tree damage from that storm back on 7/21. Trees just blasted. Even healthy hardwoods fell victim. 83/71 here as of 450pm. So the swamp has relented somewhat since I left. Leaving for GA tomorrow so it’s just a 1 day pit-stop, haha.
