Storm total of 1.18” here. Looks to be done unless something develops in the subsidence. One interesting thing is many models predicted it’d rain through tonight and into tomorrow. This thing moved through in a hurry
Can already tell where today’s going: currently 77 with a sultry dew point of 75. Looks to be a dry, hot, and excessively humid end to June. Likely going to end the month at 6.21” which has done wonders to help alleviate the dry conditions following our rainless spring
With the cutoff low in the Ohio valley, we could enter into an extended wet period as well. Below average and wet, I’ll take it going into the peak of summer
We have officially broken the 6” mark! 0.01” but still raining puts us at 6.00” on the month!
Edit: Only very light rain today. Ended with 0.04” and 6.03” for the month
Picked up 0.67” overnight. 1.71” is going to be our total from Claudette. 5.48” on the month, pretty dang happy overall, wish the rain was more consistent but decent total with more than a week left in the month
Definitely looks like a tropical storm today on Sat and radar. Widespread tropical storm conditions have been reported as well. Yesterday, not so much, but NHC waited until it did to call it, so good work as always.
I’m really banking on the Euro, everything else essentially dissipates the low and drives any rain south and east of North Carolina. Per the GFS, our only rain chance in next 10 days would be some afternoon storms one day with the frontal passage. These 2-3 week gaps in any rainfall are not ideal
Anyone know how to get climate data from Franklin County airport? Our farmer up there says it’s the driest spring he’s ever had and it literally didn’t rain in April and they had just 1 thunderstorm in may. They have been unable to plant this year without irrigation
