Absolutely amazing capture by Alex Warofka
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
El NiƱo conditions are present and expected to strengthen into the Northern Hemisphere winter 2026-27. An #ElNino Advisory is now in effect. #ENSOcpc.ncep.noaa.gov/products/aā¦
ALT A bar chart showing the chance of El NiƱo (red bars), ENSO-Neutral (grey bars), and La NiƱa (blue bars) provided for 9 upcoming, overlapping 3-month seasons (each letter represents a month, for example, F = February). The color shading within the bars indicates the chances of different categories of El NiƱo or La NiƱa strength (weak, moderate, strong, and very strong). Alternatively, the table at the internet address below presents the percent chances of each strength category in numerical form. https://cpc.ncep.noaa.gov/products/analysis_monitoring/enso/roni/strengths/
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 isnāt 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
