I wonder if subsidence behind the ongoing coastal convection will dampen storm development for central and eastern NC today. NAM kinda showing that now
-
97.3 here for the high. In line with RDU. Thankful for the afternoon clouds and breeze
-
I love the afternoon thunderstorm jackpot on these insanely hot days. Those are my favorite storms, just always hope they’re late enough in the evening to avoid the inevitable humidity hell when sun pops back out!
-
I’m 9 miles east of RDU. Clouds have definitely capped the temps today. Since we peaked at 100 it’s dropped to 97 under cloud cover. Not unhappy about it
-
RDU has hit 100 for 2nd day in a row but this seems much more in line with my observations. My temp has pretty much been in lockstep with RDU all day
-
We have hit 100 for the 3rd time this year imby EDIT: Heat index up to 114. We seem to be running higher than RDU due to slightly higher DP. Further east = more pain today
-
HI up to 109. 98.4 here, still rising
-
95/76 shewwwww
-
A 78 degree dew point at 11 am is not a good sign if you wanted mixing. They upped the advisory to a warning after my post a couple hours ago. It’s going to hit warning levels by noon. Brutal day incoming
-
91 with a heat index of 106 here. Unbearable
-
I bet RDU hits 105 today. Heat index of 95 at 9 am at my house. We’re going to surpass heat advisory levels I almost guarantee it. Make it stop
-
As of this writing, RDU had made it to at least 100. We maxed out at 97.9 I believe, currently sitting at 97.1. So 2+ degrees more than here again
-
We finished with 2.2” on Friday and now have 4.01” for the month. 97.9 seems to be the high for today.
-
This was a drought busting rain from Burlington-concord east. Exactly what was needed. Virginia too
-
It is absolutely dumping. My how the turntables turn… Approaching 2” on the day
-
Definitely some winners and losers but the AFD kinda highlighted that. Either you get under one of the bands or you will be nickel and diming it. Raining steady here right now but we’ve only picked up 0.16” so far
-
It’s brutal. Waking up and not seeing a heat advisory or warning today felt strange, haven’t seen many days recently without heat headlines
-
After failing to reach 0.5” in June we are now over 2” for July. 0.21” last evening brought the monthly total to 2.03”
-
Regardless of exact daily records or just how hot Rdu is compared to other places, this has got to be a record hot summer. I cannot remember a summer with this many 100 and upper 90 degree days this early in the summer
-
For what it’s worth we’ve been above KRDUs reading most of the afternoon here. 97.0 right now, I think the airport was at 96
-
I had a high of 95.7. KRDU was 97 I believe today. We picked up 0.02” from a shower yesterday evening
-
Im consistently 2 degrees below what KRDU measures in daylight but very frequently close at nighttime. I’m almost exactly 9 miles from the airport. IMO it has a warm bias it didn’t used to have. Setting the all time record high when most areas were hot but not even close is suspicious. I maxed out at 102.1 that day, well off the 106 they recorded but much more aligned with other observations
-
We didn’t make it quite to 95 here. High of 94.7
-
Approaching 2 million customers out. Core of highest winds definitely tracked right over Houston. This is a serious outage-producing storm -
Houston getting 80 mph gusts is impressive for an 80 mph hurricane that came ashore nearly 85 miles away
