RadarScope. Best radar app you can get.
We picked up 0.21” from that rotting line last night so we were not blanked. Happy for areas south and east of here where the severe drought area got drenched. Hopefully the upcoming week extinguishes the drought for the region
Well, 0.10” was too much. We’re at 0.00” and got the split. Unbelievable
EDIT: being in a FFW and getting barely enough rain to wet the grass is comical
For the *very* limited sample size- RDUs observations seem to be much more in line with surrounding areas since rain returned. I wonder if the flash drought + location led to locally higher readings?
I wonder if subsidence behind the ongoing coastal convection will dampen storm development for central and eastern NC today. NAM kinda showing that now
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
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
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
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
