M.S.

This page is managed by Aaron Studwell, a Maryland native with many friends and family still in the area. That is why I have the initial forecast focus on this region. For those that are curious, my academic credentials are:


B.S. Meteorology, Texas A&M University, 1995


Ph.D. Atmospheric Sciences, U. of Houston, 2020

As for my work experience, I am have over 20 years of meteorological

experience across a variety of sectors, including forecasts for commodity traders, weather derivatives, and providing worldwide forecasts for the exploration & production sector. In addition, I have over five years of experience in the air quality engineering/meteorology sector. One thing you will find here which you may not find elsewhere - if (when) a forecast busts, I will go back and explain why. And how we learn from that. That is one way this science advances. The thing you will not find here - hype. I'm not here for ratings, ad dollars, or numbers. I'm here to provide an honest forecast assessment, along with clear & accessible information. Finally - timeliness. I try to remain timely. However, being a dad and a full-time business owner, there are times I'm not always around. For those times, I will ask for your patience and understanding. Thank you for the follow!

There is a marginal risk for severe storms from Ontario to middle Tennessee. For the mid-Atlantic region, the primary threat will be winds up to 60 mph.

The timing for the storms will be from mid-afternoon into the evening hours, depending on your location.

As of noon ET, a line of storms was moving into western Virginia, while a second line was moving across central Pennsylvania.

While I haven't done specific updates on either Tropical Storm Erin or the potential tropical development over the southern Gulf of Mexico, I am watching both areas for my work.

Given the potential for flooding across south Texas and the Texas coast, I can write updates, if there is interest. (Please comment below)

At this time, there is a less than 10% chance for significant impacts from Erin. (The percentage has recently increased for Bermuda.) I will continue to monitor this, as well.

A Flood Watch is in effect for the Baltimore/DC metro areas from 2pm-9pm. Multiple rounds of slow moving thunderstorms this afternoon & evening will lead to instances of urban flash flooding. Have a way to get warning via phone, tv, internet, or radio! More at weather.gov/lwx.

What a shot! Last night's storms spun up more than one waterspout on the Chesapeake, this one spotted near Smith Island. Luckily none were reported coming to shore to become damaging tornadoes. Thank you to Bethany Pruitt for sending this photo in and be sure to download the WBOC News and WBOC Weather apps to stay weather aware!
