Long term looks very dry
-
The humidity this summer has been off the charts. Today is a welcomed reprieve
-
Missed most of the rain yesterday just 0.04”. The front today has been quite pleasant after some early morning showers that didn’t amount to much but our temp has actually stayed steady near 79 degrees and dew point has finally dipped below 70 with a steady NE breeze
-
We’ve literally had cells blow up over my house 3 straight days but the big deal was that large storm that came through yesterday evening. As rainy as it’s been here some areas west of here have double what I do bc of the tropical system that missed my backyard mostly. That makes this months rain more impressive to me bc all but about 1/2 an inch has come from afternoon storms and not a tropical system. I haven’t had to water the yard since the calendar flipped to July
-
Picked up 1.61” for a daily total of 1.82”which brings the monthly total to 8.55”
-
Getting slammed by storms
-
Just had a cell blow up overhead and drop 0.21”
-
Today’s rain brought me to 6.73” for the month but we’ve caught rogue storms a few times last 5 days. The widespread heavy rains have definitely been replaced with typical hit or miss storms during that period in central NC
-
Just had a nasty lightning storm. 0.18” in short order
-
Got clipped by a storm and picked up 0.06” in about 45 seconds lol
-
Between the afternoon storms seemingly setting up in same spots every day and the extreme rains from the tropical system I’d have to think some sites between the triangle and triad have to be approaching all time records for total July rainfall
-
Had a nice outflow cooled evening in the 70’s followed by a period of steady but light rain that didn’t amount to much but brought the daily total to 0.20” and MTD to 6.49”
-
Serious flooding NE of Greensboro right now I’d imagine
-
0.15” here this morning brings mtd to 6.44”
-
We finished with 1.06” which brings our July total to a staggering 6.29” with half a month left
-
We’re getting a very heavy afternoon storm with a couple scary-close lightning strikes. Will probably end up close to an inch of rain but it’s still pouring
-
We were in that boat last month when everyone else was being flooded. Thankfully the tables turned here and we’re at 5.23” for july with half a month to go
-
Picked up 0.12” yesterday from a shower that popped up overhead from that massive outflow that expanded from storms that originated in Franklin county. Not sure anyone watched yesterday’s radar loop in central nc but that was an insane explosion of an outflow boundary with textbook cells popping as it propagated in all directions. Looked like a bomb on radar
-
We’re at 5.11” with what looks like another wet week upcoming
-
We got smoked again. 1.45” with a ton of close lightning strikes and some pretty solid wind gusts. Today’s rainfall brings our two day total to exactly 4.00”
-
Here’s comes today’s round… looks to be organizing quickly but faster moving
-
Yesterday was one of the more impressive non-tropical summertime rainfalls we’ve had in a long time from a coverage perspective. Pretty much every location from the triad through the Triangle picked up at least 1.5” of rain and many areas had 2-3” obviously with some totals much higher than that
-
Have been unable to sleep due to intense lightning and thunder overhead. Sitting at 2.52” and still raining a little. Shockingly it looks like another band may be building up to our west that could move through later Finished with 2.55”
-
We’ve picked up more rain in the last hour and a half than we received through the entire month of June
-
Storm gusted out before it got here but we’re getting the goods in the rainfall department finally
