There is one pop up storm near Durham just west of Falls Lake but yeah it would be nice to get something. Could be some pulse severe with DCAPE values being quite high and no shear.
It is basically falling at its steepest rate since the real drop began. Showers over the next few days should slow or stop the bleeding for a short time.
I noticed the bump up as well this morning. I am a bit surprised by that. Also Falls Lake as expected is in free fall again. It has about 3 feet to drop before reaching the all time record low level.
