Yeah, the latest convective outlook from the SPC doesn't paint a good picture AGAIN!!! This will be the 3rd Thursday in 4 weeks I'm gonna get screwed trying to leave Philly back to Chicago.
http://www.spc.noaa.gov/products/outlook/day1otlk.html
The synopsis below doesn't read NEARLY as bad as it did this time last week.
After looking at some forecast prods., things could get rather interesting if the sun comes out and can stay out for a prolonged period.
*sigh*
<snip>
...ERN CAROLINAS INTO THE CHESAPEAKE / DELMARVA REGION...
SURFACE BOUNDARY REMAINS ACROSS THE REGION ATTM FROM CENTRAL PA SWD INTO ERN VA JUST WEST OF THE CHESAPEAKE BAY. THIS BOUNDARY WILL LIKELY LIFT NWD DURING THE DAY...BUT SHOULD STALL ACROSS THE DELMARVA REGION WHERE WEAK SURFACE LOW MAY DEVELOP.
AIRMASS SOUTH OF THIS BOUNDARY IS FAIRLY MOIST...WITH DEWPOINTS IN THE 60S. ALTHOUGH LAPSE RATES ARE WEAK /AOB 6 C/KM/ ACROSS THE REGION...INCREASING LOW-LEVEL MOISTURE AND SOME HEATING WILL LIKELY RESULT IN SURFACE-BASED CAPE 1000 TO 2000 J/KG ACROSS THIS REGION
EAST OF LEE TROUGH WHICH WILL LIKELY DEVELOP WITH WSWLY FLOW ALOFT. DEEP-LAYER WIND FIELD WILL BE STRONG...WITH MID-LEVEL FLOW 50 TO 60 KTS...SUGGESTING THAT STORMS WHICH DEVELOP SHOULD ORGANIZE / BECOME
SUPERCELLS. ALTHOUGH PRIMARY THREAT WILL BE DAMAGING WINDS... MARGINALLY-SEVERE HAIL WILL ALSO BE POSSIBLE. IN ADDITION...A COUPLE OF ISOLATED TORNADOES WILL BE POSSIBLE...MAINLY NEAR SURFACE LOW / NEAR AND NORTH OF SURFACE BOUNDARY ACROSS THE DELMARVA REGION. STORMS WILL MOVE OFFSHORE AS COLD FRONT MOVES THROUGH BY
MIDNIGHT.

If there's a chance of hail, call up your neighbors and see if they have an extra/vacant garage stall they can let you use until it passes.
Good luck my friend.

At least I park in a garage on campus. I just hope my ride home is clear of hail. Maybe I just hang out in the garage computer lab after classes until this storm passes. :-\
I'll have to keep an eye on the radar.
