Next week is going to be brutal for anyone below 2,500 ft in the southeast. I’m fine with a dry stretch but I hope this doesn’t become permanent like last summer. I went about 6 weeks without more than a quarter inch of rain total.

Incredibly fast EWRC

These storms have been some frog drowners

Summer has arrived. Hang on tight, because you’re not allowed to get off the ride until at least Oct 31 for the most part.

Someone is going to get nailed with widespread 90° temps and dews in the 60s, no doubt. Figuring out where these MCS’s go is always such a crap shoot though. It’s been fun to watch the HRRR swing entire regions every few runs. if anyone wants some chuckles, the NAM has cape about 4,000 for a chunk of the Carolina’s tomorrow.

We’ve been on a roll recently with having normal rainfall events at regular intervals.

Yea I’m worried about the fire risk too. We’ve had some seriously dry summers lately so I’m hoping maybe we catch a break and have regular storms for once. Our region is due some peace and quiet.

Wedged in on Memorial Day - the annual tradition. It’s been a true spring, I feel like we’ve been spoiled with that the past few years. Maybe holding back the heat is our reward for the boring winters. Ain’t gonna lie though, it’s pool and boat season - bring on the heat. A cold beer doesn’t quench the thirst as well when it’s in the 50s and low 60s. Also, hope all of yall are well. I took a bit of a hiatus from weather the past month or two but I’ll be rummaging around the forum a bit more as we get into cumulonimbus season.

Unsettled week ahead. I’m not going to complain, we need it.

On the bright side, hopefully it means this cool weather is kicking rocks.

Idk if I’ve ever been ready for a downpour more than I am for tomorrow’s. This pollen has to be among the worst I’ve ever seen.

Tomorrow has become more discrete on the short range guidance. Bad for widespread rain and bad for severe weather.

We desperately needed that rain this morning. It wasn’t much but I hope the damp drizzly start to the day helped these firefighters.

Only got down to 36, but man is it a cold 36. I was surprised to see how gusty it was this morning.

Northern Caldwell County going into Blowing Rock is an absolute mess this morning per reports. 321N has apparently been at a standstill near the curves for hours.
