Looks like Top ten. Here's the data https://www.spc.noaa.gov/exper/soundingclimov2/

Yeah it seemed to be working somewhat better before mid-morning but now it's as bad as ever

Temps busting big time for those near/under the slow moving showers

This is why the drought monitor did not show improvement. There were some improvement to short term drought (shallow soil moisture, levels of small creeks etc.), but long term drought has no meaningful dent made and the heat/moderate humidity will only worsen water levels over at least the next couple weeks

More of a (relatively) dry heat/strong cap to prevent convective complexes.

Not cool. Not cool at all.

July fourth temps are scorching. An appropriate portend these days

Forecasts have leveled out and holding steady now at +3-+3.5

The wind with that line of storms was white impressive last night even though here in south Greensboro it wasn't nearly as bad as north Greensboro. What was really usual was how long the wind was sustained, 10-15 minutes of winds gusting to 40-50 mph

This gif came to mind

Thankfully although there have been some winners and losers relatively speaking it was a .5"+ rainfall across the Piedmont. Pretty rare to get widespread rain like that in June

Quite the temperature gradient across the are with storms bleeding south

Updated drought monitor expands extreme drought to cover Guilford county.

For sure. Weird seeing positive trends for once
