Wet Pattern is coming to fruition as some areas received as much as 3 and 4 inches of rain last night alone. Severe Threat continues today and Flood Watches have been posted for many areas.
Summary:As I have been sharing strongly since Tuesday evening the rain threat this weeekend is great. I was up late last night with my kids as the storms in northern Virginia were accompanied by some serious amounts of lightning! The soupy and moist atmosphere is still expected to yeild as much as another 6 inches or more of rain for areas. Since some regions already have expereienced 3-4 inches of rain it is possible there could be areas receiving in excess of 10 inches if storms train over the same areas. The Severe weather threat remains as well due to the proximity of the stalled front, impulses caused by areas of low pressure that will ride along the stationary front, and any warming that may occur today. All I can say is stay alert! Do not drive through any standing water, listen to news and radio outlets fo watches and or warnings!
