I love that little hike to Little Lost Cove Cliffs, but I like the one to Big Lost Cove Cliffs, just higher up that same forest road, even better. Both have excellent views of Grandfather and the Wilson Creek drainage basin. Thanks for sharing that beautiful picture.

I had around 4 inches. The Vantage Vue said 3.8 inches, but I’m not exactly sure on the total amount, as a leaf got stuck in the Vue yesterday afternoon and caused me to miss some of the accumulation.

Enjoying this slogfest up there in Boone? LOL Baseball score of 3-2 right now. Go App!

Yeah, this has been underwhelming so far. I have one third of an inch of rainfall, and an occasional breeze here and there. It is chilly, though. Remaining under 60 degrees. Perhaps the heavier rain will come in this evening, but that’s not what just a bare analysis of the current radar image would make you think.

48.1 F here this morning in the urban heat island of NE Hickory. Lots of new housing going up in this area.

47.8 F for my low this morning!

3.42 for me. Very similar to @Ernest T Bass .

Been steadily raining this evening, but I think y’all got more to my west again. Just shy of 1.5 inches now since midnight, but hardly any returns on radar.

Wow! Y’all are killin’ it in the rain gauge. I got close to an inch since midnight, but your totals are much heavier.

Why is it being retired? Does it really cost anything to just let it run indefinitely?

Over an inch and a half of rain and still falling. Crazy storm total.

Sitting in my drive for the past 15 minutes because it has been raining so hard, and I don’t wanna make a break for it. Pea size hail, too! First hail I have witnessed this year. Eager to see the gauge totals when I get inside.

Your spaceship description was spot on. It had those low white wispy clouds out front and then just dark, dark, blue grey behind. The wind and rain were both fierce. I ended up with 1.01 inches this morning. According to NWS, more to come this afternoon/evening…

Amazing looking storm. Insane rain once it hit, too. Here’s a couple pics I took.

What ya doing down in the lowlands, @Met1985 ? I would think the heat/humidity combo would be intolerable for a mountain man such as yourself! (It’s intolerable for us, too!)
