  1. The DC swamp ends it's influence at the Triangle I guess.
  2. Yeah, it's really strange, because you would expect downsloping to produce lower DPs in the western Piedmont not higher
  3. This may well be the hottest day of the heat wave by heat index, Dewpoints holding in the low 70s and heat index climbing into the mid 90s
  4. Philly seems to be ground zero. Tommorow 104 with Dewpoints in the high 60s/low 70s, heat index near 115
  5. In some ways the NE does heat better than us. Greensboro has reached 100 only in 5 of the last 50 summers (12 days total). Boston has hit 100 in 9 of those years (9 days total)
  6. Yes, definitely accurate for that particular strip of concrete
  7. I've noticed RAH does a poor job of picking up on the warm bias the GFS and Euro have. Always seem to be a few degrees warm
  8. Maybe they went after Americanwx too
  9. Looks like Top ten. Here's the data https://www.spc.noaa.gov/exper/soundingclimov2/
  10. Yeah it seemed to be working somewhat better before mid-morning but now it's as bad as ever
  11. Temps busting big time for those near/under the slow moving showers
  12. 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
  13. More of a (relatively) dry heat/strong cap to prevent convective complexes.
  14. July fourth temps are scorching. An appropriate portend these days
  15. Forecasts have leveled out and holding steady now at +3-+3.5
  16. 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
  17. 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
  18. Quite the temperature gradient across the are with storms bleeding south
  19. Updated drought monitor expands extreme drought to cover Guilford county.
  20. For sure. Weird seeing positive trends for once
