Starting to get a little concerned about flooding from tropical systems the next few weeks. Looks like a general 1 to 3 inches by the weekend from an upper low before any potential tropical trouble.
Ended up with 2.8 inches, we may get a bit more later but could have been worse. Almost to my monthly August average.. already at 3.3 for the month and its the 3rd!
It will be interesting to see what happens when the surge of tropical moisture in the Piedmont gets to the stalled front in the foothills.. We have over 2 inches of rain already and still pouring
We have dodged the bullet so far with the heaviest rain but it stormed almost all night and we still picked up 1.3 already. Southern parts of the county have over 3 inches in places already..
Biggest storm of the year here. Severe with strong winds and small hail. Still rocking and rolling too. We have had over 2 inches the past 36 hours now.
For sure. Some places on the Blue Ridge near Mt Mitchell have had 7 to 8 inches the past week or so. Storms have been popping in the same locations over and over.
We've kinda been the Goldilocks just right amount here. About 2 inches the past 7 or 8 days. Nothing too excessive but certainly not dry. .25 here, .75 there.
Streams looking healthy again.
