snowlurker Posted June 1, 2020 Report Share Posted June 1, 2020 My wife turns 50 tomorrow and would like to celebrate it at the beach on Assateague Island. The only close-by restaurant that is milestone birthday-worthy is the Atlantic Hotel in Berlin, MD. We obtained a 5:30pm reservation for outdoor dining...the only type they offer right now. All my celebration plans would pan out except that there's a 15% chance of precipitation in the afternoon there, climbing to 35% by 8:00pm. I've googled how to interpret the PoP, but the problem is that I don't know the square mileage of the grid point upon which they assign the PoP. If there was a 20% chance over the entirety of Delaware that's one thing, but if the 20% is only over my local neighborhood, that's another. Can anyone please help? I don't want to be rained on during dinner, yet plan B isn't as good as plan A. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That was really dumb of me. Thanks Tony! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I first read your post, I thought the pops were about today. I'd like to say there is a go to model with convection, but they all seem to overcook it. I really miss those ncar mesoscale ensembles with convection. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
