J.C. Posted August 1, 2016 Share Posted August 1, 2016 .5 inches of rain here since early June. The same places get the rain, everything is dead but the trees, those are next. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ain't that the truth. Certain areas of Lexington and most others in the Central Midlands haven't had it nearly as bad as my yard. It really feels like all the storms dissipate or split around this area over the last few years. That storm that just rolled through barely gave my yard any relief. Seemed like it weakened over the house and formed to the North and South before filling back in on the way to Columbia proper. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now its just sitting over Columbia. Unreal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Iceagewhereartthou Posted August 2, 2016 Share Posted August 2, 2016 Well GSP broke it's 90 degree streak of 15 days today with a chilly high of 89. CAE broke it's 100 degree streak of 6 days with a 97. CAE is currently on a 90 degree steak of 43 days and counting! Looks like it could continue at least for the next 2 weeks. CAE has now recorded 21 days of 100 plus thus far. I think someone (Buckeye?) stated the record is 23 days? CLT reached 95, so their 90 degree streak now stands at 16.

NWNC2015 Posted August 2, 2016 Author Share Posted August 2, 2016 Lots of thunder/lightning now west of Elkin. If some of the short term hi res models end up correct, northern foothills will see multiple storms today with spots seeing 3-6". WPC has issued a marginal risk for flash flooding for my area. ...AND ALSO WHERE THE ENHANCED FORCING OVERLAPS WITH HIGHER TERRAIN IN THE AREA BORDERING SOUTHERN TENNESSEE AND OVER THROUGH THE SOUTHERN APPALACHIANS. THERE ARE SOME INDICATIONS THAT LONGER DURATION MODERATE RAINFALL COULD PERSIST IN THE EASTERN UPSLOPE AREAS OF THE APPALACHIANS OVERNIGHT.

yotaman Posted August 2, 2016 Share Posted August 2, 2016 The rain continues here. Picked up 1.24" yesterday afternoon. More rain expected today thru Thursday before we dry out a bit. Currently 91/79. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jshetley Posted August 2, 2016 Share Posted August 2, 2016 Another dry day here. Anything that gets close just falls apart. So much for the threat of fairly widespread rainfall in SC today. The chance of rain just goes down from here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cbmclean Posted August 3, 2016 Share Posted August 3, 2016 A frustrating day in Wilson, NC. Rain has been dodging around us all afternoon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Avdave Posted August 3, 2016 Share Posted August 3, 2016 Just like the last few times storms were strong and having high tops and then as soon as they reach the end of 540 at 55, they fall apart to a drizzle or gentle light rain for a short period of time. Kind of neat but sucks for me and my new plants I put in the ground. so far .01" has fallen here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cbmclean Posted August 3, 2016 Share Posted August 3, 2016 I'm officially throwing in the towel. The tongue of moisture extending from south-central Virginia is disintegrating a shut-out for Wilson today. Odds aren't looking good tomorrow either. Looks like Friday is our next decent chance.
