February 23 Friday Weather Brings Back Rain Near Baltimore And The Eastern Shore
February 23 2024
Friday Morning Update
Yesterday we had quite the storm that surprised many. Our computer model guidance and my interpretation underestimated it! The mix of thunder, hail, but also sleet and snow were wild! Today, that same storm system is hanging around for one more burst.
Morning fog might be thick in a few areas… Then, we watch the resurgence of showers near Baltimore. Heavier rain is more likely south and east across Delmarva.
Tomorrow may bring one last hit of a snow or rain shower. Then we set up the big pre-spring warm up into next week.

The same weather system that brought the surprise thunderstorm yesterday is still lingering in the Mid-Atlantic. One more wave of Low Pressure will ride along and redevelop rain mid-day through the afternoon.

RESTATING MY MESSAGE ABOUT DYSLEXIA
I am aware there are some spelling and grammar typos and occasional other glitches. I take responsibility for my mistakes and even the computer glitches I may miss. I have made a few public statements over the years, but if you are new here, you may have missed it: I have dyslexia and found out during my second year at Cornell University. It didn’t stop me from getting my meteorology degree and being the first to get the AMS CBM in the Baltimore/Washington region. One of my professors told me that I had made it that far without knowing and to not let it be a crutch going forward. That was Mark Wysocki, and he was absolutely correct! I do miss my mistakes in my own proofreading. The autocorrect spell check on my computer sometimes does an injustice to make it worse. I also can make mistakes in forecasting. No one is perfect at predicting the future. All of the maps and information are accurate. The ‘wordy’ stuff can get sticky. There has been no editor who can check my work when I need it and have it ready to send out in a newsworthy timeline. Barbara Werner is a member of the web team that helps me maintain this site. She has taken it upon herself to edit typos when she is available. That could be AFTER you read this. I accept this and perhaps proves what you read is really from me… It’s part of my charm. #FITF
