Default 2017 18m Nats - Weather Board info posted - today Wed 8-9

I posted the hrrrx model thermal heights map from the 12Z run at:

Look into the HRRR folders for Wednesday

Low top CB and light showers developing again just east of UVA to SAT area... then an outlflow boundary killing lift after 5-6pm. Not as pervasive as yesterday... but there nonetheless.

Also look at the forecast radar composite reflectivity in another HRRRX folder.

Overall... a little less coverage shower activity.

Look at the model soundings for UVA. They show max 5.5-6k msl thermal heights and cu cloud bases for the hrrr. The nam 3km model looks a little better... much less showers and cu bases/thermal heights 6.5-7k msl.
