  1. .46” yesterday and today
  2. Definitely feel that way. Last week areas in Durham county (one county over) picked up 4-5” and we didn’t even get one quarter on an inch from the entire two day event
  3. It is wild how much wetter western areas have been.
  4. Picked up 0.12” last evening
  5. Missed out on everything last few days. Just 0.08” from showers last night
  6. First 1”+ rainfall since March Finished with 1.38” yesterday
  7. Picked up a whopping 0.02” over last two days. Much cooler than forecast today, sitting at 82 (forecast had been 90)
  8. 0.04” overnight. Waiting on afternoon storms. Currently 75 with 82% humidity and mostly cloudy. Picked up an additional 0.23” with the evening storms for a 2-day total of 0.87”.
  9. Picked up .60” of rain yesterday
  10. We dodged ducked dipped dove and dodged our way to 0.00” today
  11. First 90 for us. Currently 90.7 and extremely hot. Here it comes!
  12. 61% of NC is now in “Abnormally Dry” category of drought monitor, up from 40% last week. Does look like western areas of the state could pick up widespread rains over the next 5 days but central and eastern areas could remain dry. This obviously is not what we want heading into summer
  13. Never cracked 90 for the month. Lowest temp was 33. Rainfall was paltry, just 1.36” and nearly an inch of that fell on the 4th
  14. With no rain in the forecast through the end of the month, looks likely our current 1.36” mtd total will remain our paltry total for the month. This is quite the contrast to last year, when we finished with 10.94” for April!
  15. 40% of NC in the “abnormally dry” category in this weeks drought monitor, that’s up from 28% last week. With little to no rain in the forecast I expect drought conditions to redevelop in a lot of central/eastern NC. Thankfully this is somewhat localized and much of the region is in a surplus of rain this spring
  16. Bit more dreary day yesterday than I was expecting, showers kept it cool for a lot of the day. Managed to get to 69 before the rain but temps dropped all the way to 59 before rebounding to 68 late in the day again. Just 0.06” but every drop here is needed
  17. Going to be extremely frosty in the morning. Most of NC in the mid-lower 30’s already with a couple more hours to bottom out with no wind. Some places may even get below freezing. Hope everyone’s garden was prepared
  18. 0.32” yesterday brings MTD total to 1.30”
  19. After missing out on almost all the rains over the last 2 weeks, the abnormally dry are on the drought monitor has blossomed from 12% of the state of NC to 28%, mostly in central and eastern parts of the state. Combined with this early season heat, it feels very “crunchy” out there walking through the woods
  20. 0.00” today despite 100% coverage forecast and 1-2”
  21. Still no rain today. What a forecast bust! Not complaining at all
  22. Picked up 0.04” last two days. Will be interesting to see if the area of subsidence over NC from the convection ongoing to the south busts todays rainfall forecast. What had looked like steady morning rains now look to hold off till afternoon. Definitely a volatile forecast
  23. That is correct. Florence and Floyd were both expected to come in as majors but both weakened significantly (wind wise). Obviously they both had rainfall impacts that exceeded their wind category. I don’t believe in “we’re due” but 1996 was a LONG time ago especially in a state that takes so many hurricane hits
  24. Like everyone else, just saw the CSU forecast. Holy moly. I see nothing holding this season back besides luck. Here in NC, we’ve had a lot of that recently so praying it holds. Nuclear SSTs with developing La Niña…. Good luck everyone! Going to be an active year tracking
