Picked up another 0.62” to bring the daily total to 2.33”. This now brings the MTD to 8.90”. Looks like maybe another round later tonight too?

Absolutely nuts across wake county tonight

1.41” at my house between 3 separate periods of rainfall brings the MTD total to 7.98” EDIT: just picked up 0.30” from a heavy but brief storm. 1.71” for the day 8.28” for the month. Looks like more incoming

Bad street flooding right now around Glenwood/440 on my commute

Better banding features especially in eastern quad on radar but center still dealing with serious dry air. Recon confirms with very light winds a good distance from center. Not far off from TS but not very well organized at all. NE shear is very evident and dry air intrusion will certainly limit this thing. Not sure the environment gets better even if it misses land and went south of Louisiana some models actually show shear increasing later on

I think the key here is Wake/Durham/franklin counties probably had the wettest month after being left out on everything rest of the year. Does alter one’s perception when you’re under repeated rains vs someone a county or less away not seeing them

We’ve reached the stage where if you look at the sky funny it will rain on you

Second day in a row I’ve had a heavy shower blow up right overhead before it even showed on radar

Seems to be trending a bit north today with less of a time window over water. Probably only gets to minimal TS at this point. Satellite appears to be showing more northerly shear today as well

Outflow probably killed our chances rest of day but 0.17” brings the MTD to 6.57”

Had one blow up overhead and drop a quick 0.14”. Wasn’t even on radar yet and it was pouring

91 with a DP of 77… this is as bad as it gets

Picked up 0.03” from a brief but heavy shower this morning and yes, you can slice the air with a knife today. It is that thick

0.71” brings the MTD to 6.40”

Helluva windstorm here, knocked power out. Most severe storm in years and had no warning
