Looking really ominous NW of Columbia SC. Caught this on SC highway cam. I-26 MM 97.5 looking west.

Important to read disclaimers..

Robert posted on FB earlier. He is really thinking this could be a big event, especially in and around the Apps. He's saying from n. Florida to southern VA are under the gun.

Looks like I'm the last hold out in this group then.

Got ya. You are in that "Savannah/ Chattooga river screwzone. I've noticed in some situations that a nose of warm air will travel up the Savannah river all the way to the escarpment. Your best snow bet in SC is from Greenville county and Northeast along and north of I-85. Downsloping is our worst enemy in SC and east GA.

Bingo.... This is absolutely the worst area for a weather enthusiast. I wouldn't wish this place on my worst enemy. I'm surprised you do so bad with snow considering your location. Most areas north of 85 do pretty good with snow. Looks to be another rain free day today, and our string of dry days continue. I'm quite frankly skeptical about these models showing 5-7 inches of rain in my area.

I'm Southwest of you and it's bone dry here. Today is looking like another dry day.

He won't be doing anything on the Davidson.

Fair enough. The problem is while the mountains were getting lots of rain, many areas east and south of the mountains weren't getting much. Many areas already had significant deficits by the time the heat wave/drought arrived. The more droughts, the stronger and longer lasting the heatwaves are. We just spent over a week with a burn ban. Im not one of those that want deluges every day of the year, but I know how bad droughts can get here too. You guys in the mountains are so fortunate. Btw, I'm currently in Blythewood SC, about 20 miles north of KCAE.

Seriously????? Why don't you move down here then. You can have all the drought your heart desires. I have no idea why some people love heat and drought so much....

Lucky you. Amazing what difference being one state to the north can do. We are getting close to a month without measurable rain here, and I'm skeptical that this pattern will produce for my area.

Another day. Another bust. Starting to think this dry spell never ends in my area.

Had a very light sprinkle for about 5 minutes yesterday in the Blythewood area. Some of our plants are starting to wilt from the very long period of no rain.

Sure hope it does, but I will believe it when it's falling from the sky. Parts of the Columbia area hasn't seen measureable rain in almost a month.

Still no rain or storms here. Getting close to 4 weeks with no measurable rain here.

Me too. We just avoided triple digits here. But a nasty string of 96-98 degree highs. Still very dry.

Looks like most of SC misses out on storms today. Sigh. Guess we wait till at least the middle of next week before anymore rain chances.

Tornado warning issued for Iredell county.

https://m.facebook.com/story.php?story_fbid=2696858273677544&id=356106867752708. Robert is forecasting all time record high temps for May. Man, I wish I were in the mountains.

Let's switch places then. Most areas east of the mountains are running quite dry this year, and it's been very warm too.

Robert posted on Facebook today. Heat wave looks to last at least 10 days. He's talking about temps approaching 100 from N Florida to Virginia. I hate these death ridges.

I have found a house. I will be moving to Christiansburg VA in June from Columbia SC.

I will be moving from Columbia SC to the Roanoke VA area this summer. Any members here from that area, and what weather they get there.
