Sweet!!  mby has 2.5 in the bucket from the overnight drops of moisture falling from the sky  :D   It looks like the heavy stuff is is from st matthews to sumter for the moment, but it's building again  ;)

Yeah, we did pretty good with the rain, but without the flooding problems those to the E&W are and will be having. My main concern now is if the winds/gusts show up as predicted, the potential of power outages or trees down in the yard. Duke is reporting 20,000+ out this morning, almost all West of Raleigh.

 

Wind hasn't been an issue for us so far but a few leaning trees lost their battle with gravity and have been reported down. Highway 43 south of Greenville reportedly was blocked yesterday by a tree falling.

1.50" since midnight.  Radar looks sort of meh for mby right now so I'm getting ready to head to Clemson.  Lot's of rain holes abound.  Heavy rain only coming in spurts and it's just mostly moderate rain so far.  This looks like one of those famous upstate underperformers.  Won't be surprised to see the heaviest rain rotate right past mby.

 

Historic.....That's a pretty pathetic daily record of 0.77".

 

... Record daily rainfall broken at Greenville-Spartanburg SC...

At 715 am... the rainfall since midnight was 0.87 inches breaking the
record rainfall for October 3rd. The previous record was 0.77 inches
set in 1961. Rainfall will continue through the rest of the day.

The back edge of the firehouse just passed me by.  I have accumulated 2.08 inches of rainfall since midnight.  Today marks the tenth consecutive day of measurable rainfall IMBY.  Over those ten days I have now accumulated 9.22 inches of drought-busting rainfall.  If we consider this new event to start yesterday, I have only managed to garner 2.61 inches of rainfall from the ULL/Joaquin interaction.  Nowhere near historic, but I do envision having various showers around through Monday.  This is definitely a 180-degree pattern change.

Are getting brief heavy downpours in the east flow.....lots of strong sun in between its the really heavy rate stuff that is exactly what we don't need....but they are small and last only a few minutes.

We got one of those a few minutes ago. Only last a minute or two. Just enough to get the concrete wet.

In CAE I spy with my little eye a steady drizzle. #forecastfail

 

So far I've had less than half the rain we had over night Wednesday into Thursday from the passage of the front.  

Nothing but light rain and drizzle, and I couldn't be happier about it.

 

The radar is very very lacking, more good news.
