IShowSpeed didn't realize he was sitting next to Zohran Mamdani the Mayor of New York City the entire time while at the World Cup game 😭

Once again we are looking at a severe thunderstorm threat in the DMV this evening. Dry air that has been observed in our skew-T's should enhance downbursts in thunderstorms. Storms will lack shear, but expect spontaneous damaging winds under some downdrafts. #mdwx #dcwx #vawx

Currently, we have a semi-organized, severe warned MCS moving towards the DMV. It has a history of producing severe gusts and will likely continue to do so due to dry air being present for good negative buoyancy in downdrafts leading to these outflow winds. #mdwx #dcwx #vawx

Pretty good CAPE in today’s sounding.

Although we have a D1 and D2 30% wind risk in the DMV issued by the SPC (be aware today & tmrw), the D4 15% has caught my attention. While today & tomorrow lack a notable one, we should have a jet steak come through on Sunday, increasing shear & the storm threat #mdwx #dcwx #vawx

The weakly organized MCS in question has moved out of the DMV (our storm threat is over) & is now over the Delmarva. It is producing some outflow winds, but once again isn’t sustaining itself well due to lack of shear. It remains sub-severe w/ only SMW criteria winds. #mdwx #dewx
As we go through the afternoon in the DMV, we should see a weakly organized MCS attempt to form (per HRRR runs). There is a fair amount of clearing enhancing instability, but we lack wind shear. Expect some thunderstorm activity for the next several hours. #mdwx #dcwx #vawx
