Got 1.2" so far. Puts me at a total of 5.12" for March

How do you keep getting so much more than me? We're only a few miles apart. I just checked and I've got .72", and this rain is very uniform across the county. Looks like its almost over here, the back edge is right over me. Here's a website I found in Blacksburg, SC just a few miles from us. His totals are almost an exact match for mine ( I got 1.77" on the event a few days ago, and about the same as his on this event)

Kinda off-topic...I've heard of a lot of things in the world of weather, but this is a new one to me...

That is pretty wild. I wonder exactly what it sounded like?

Thats weird, I'll look at my gauge some more and see if there's something wrong with it.

The rain is redeveloping right over the NC/SC border region of the foothills now. Matter of fact, its raining about as hard as any point today, whereas a few minutes ago nothing was on radar upstream..now things are blossoming. The strong incoming divergence is starting to work its magic.

I'll have to say that this was the sorriest excuse for a "storm" that I've witnessed since this past Sunday's sorry excuse for a "storm".

hahah yeah RAH kind of hinted at a bit of a screw job in the overnight disco (upstream convective robbing etc.). Hopefully we get some severe a little later.
