A closer look at 2 individual “dumpers”. Relatively small in size, but intense.

First is the Canaan Valley storm which basically centered over the Timberline area. For example- Bald Knob picked up .33 on the day, northern  Cabin Mt picked up .02, Resort area at the CRN station .10. The cell centered in between in a small area picked up 1 to nearly 3″.  The cell put down nearly 2.5″ at the old Timberline site with 2.3″ in 1 hour. The station picked up a total of 2.89 on the day.  Radar estimates coincide with area gauges pretty well.

 

Another heavy cell existed in the Meyersdale vicinity. Again looking like a 2-3″ quick event.
