  1. You did better than me. We got 0.01” today and we haven’t had more than 0.20” since April 10
  2. Friend sent a video of really bad hail outside the court house in Wilmington (she’s a prosecutor there, not in trouble)
  3. Yep this is a great setup for it. I’ve seen it only once in my life but we had maybe 20 minutes of pure, pea sized hail, that covered everything including the road. I think some areas see this tomorrow
  4. With the freezing line around 750 mb tomorrow and CAMs showing some enhanced convection, there may be some fairly efficient hail producing storms in the area tomorrow and maybe even some hail “showers”
  5. High of 87.8 today, warmest of the year at my house. Low of 66.4. Picked up 0.19” of rain with 3 rounds of rain. Just enough to moisten the ground, on top of yesterday’s 0.14”
  6. We got shafted in my neck of the woods. Just 0.14” for the day. Does feel amazing out
  7. Any damage reports from those earlier cells?
  8. Albeit broad, rotation has definitely increased in the past few minutes
  9. Storm moving into Coronaca may be getting ready to cycle back. Looking like a more defined hook is redeveloping on radar
  10. From radar, those looked like strong tornadoes. Thankfully I believe they both passed through very rural areas
  11. Cell heading in general direction of RAH has a tight couplet near Star, NC
  12. There may have been something otg with the storm west of clover. Not definitive but definitely some strong rotation
  13. 0.02” here so far and still raining. Really hope we get something substantial from the next band
  14. Definitely trending towards drought. Cannot be denied at this point.
  15. 83.3 and much more humidity today. 62.8 dew point... summer!
  16. Had a brief shower early this morning but just a T of precip. Friday looks dry so we likely will end the month at 0.93” barring something changing. Strangely, looking at climate records, April is climatologically our driest month, averaging just 2.80”
  17. Forecast looks drier and drier. May make it to may before our next rainfall. That would be less than an inch of rain imby for the month of April
  18. Beautiful morning. 48 degrees and perfect crisp feel to take the dog out. Glad I got to enjoy it before this hot stretch
  19. We have only had two rain events this month, the 10th and yesterday. Friday’s looks quite light. Finishing April under an inch of rain, we’re still below an inch here for the month, is a terrible way to go into the hot season! I think WRAL said Raleigh is 3.3” below average for the spring at this point. Pattern looks like any rain will be quick fropa variety and not soaking rain. Saw some yellow shades show up in drought monitor thus week into central nc. Definitely not the time you want to see that!
  20. Just 0.31” for the weekend rainfall total. Really looking like we’re going into another extended dry period. Low of 45 this morning.
  21. RDU tied a record low of 32 this morning. Knew it’d get cold with that front but wasn’t expecting widespread record cold. Models were 5-6 degrees too warm
  22. Haven’t seen “QPF” and “Much needed right now” together in the same sentence in some time: QPF (much needed right now) - is expected to be in the 0.5 to 0.75 inch range in the south and west, with lesser totals possibly as low as only 0.25 to 0.33 in the far NE zones. Regardless, this would still be a good soaking rain for most of the region.
  23. 32.5 for the low at my house. Minimal frost. Looked around and a very impressive amount of sub freezing temps across central NC for it being April 22.
  24. High of 77 today. Still no rain since the 10th. Very dry out, hopefully we get something Saturday!
