Friday August 14 2020
A Flash Flood Watch has been issued AGAIN for our area today. It will be a little cooler, but very humid. Slow moving storms will develop again today. An area of Low Pressure will keep the winds from the east and Northeast. That will keep temps cooler, more clouds around, but some bands of storms that can drop over 1 inch of rain.
Morning Surface Weather
Here is a quick look at the rainfall forecast today, plus a look at our Maryland Trek Day 6. This day includes a marathon distance hike on the Eastern Shore and 20 mile ride to Sharptown. There will be more showers along our way.
This also includes the entire stories of three Power Kids we are memorializing. Plus our route of my Maryland Trek Day 6 between Grasonville to Easton, then over to Sharptown.
Morning Satellite Loop
There is still a lot of moisture, and here we can see a hint of the circulation. But the shift will keep our region just on the edge.
Radar Simulation —> slider
This is guidance (not the promise) from the 3 Km Km model. The model I used yesterday let us down, and we had more steady rain in the morning. That is why I am switching back to the NAM 3Km
Will range from the upper 70s to mid 80s, depending on where the rain sets up.
