gtg947h Posted July 6, 2017 Share Posted July 6, 2017 Caught a good storm last night just after 2100... that was the most lightning I've seen in a while, with several close strikes. I could swear I heard little staticky crackles in our bedroom with the flashes, before the thunder. The second shift guys at work (~8 mi away) said the power kept going in and out.

shaggy Posted July 6, 2017 Share Posted July 6, 2017 Had a small cell move a couple miles to my north yesterday. It was quite small only a a few miles in diameter. It gave me a great view of the updraft and then as it began to strengthen back up it formed a great structure on the bottom and the inflow and vertically rising scud looked incredible. There was zero rotation with it so even though it looks like a "wedge tornado" its nothing but inflow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yotaman Posted July 6, 2017 Author Share Posted July 6, 2017 The heat is on. Currently 92/77. Picked up .49" from a line of storms which moved thru yesterday afternoon. Edit: we hit 94 just a bit ago for our highest temp of the year so far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Solak Posted July 8, 2017 Share Posted July 8, 2017 Maybe today? ...Carolinas/mid-Atlantic States... Thunderstorms should diurnally increase this afternoon initially near the mountains/higher terrain where differential cloud cover may also be an influence near and ahead of an advancing cold front. As the front continues to spread east-southeastward, storms should increase in coverage and organization/intensity by late this afternoon into evening as they move into a more unstable air mass across the Piedmont and coastal plain. Somewhat stronger forcing for ascent/vertical shear should also influence the region later today via the approach of a modestly amplifying upstream trough. Multiple eastward-moving clusters of strong to severe thunderstorms are probable this afternoon and evening especially across NC/southern VA, with localized wind damage as the primary risk.

Yeah surface cape is getting above 3000-4000 over a lot of the SE.....the timing though sucks....you might luck out and get a heat of the day storm on the sea breeze if it can get inland at all....me I gotta wait for the S/W later probably around 7-10 pm. Should be pretty unstable still but nothing like if we had that S/W moving through now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gman Posted July 8, 2017 Share Posted July 8, 2017 The temp dropped quickly from 91 to 76 as we are getting a heavy thunderstorm. Radar points to at least an inch of rain for us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buckethead Posted July 8, 2017 Share Posted July 8, 2017 Reached a high of 68 before the storms came through. Only received .27" before it ended. Looking forward to a few dry days (and mid 50's at night). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jshetley Posted July 8, 2017 Share Posted July 8, 2017 Nothing here. Need a tropical system to change this pattern. We did good in June, but once we start missing it takes something big to give us any rain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

downeastnc Posted July 9, 2017 Share Posted July 9, 2017 Kinda surprised no watch was issued, there are a lot of warnings and storm reports.....the cell between Wilson and Rocky Mount got some decent velocities showing up, should see quite a few wind damage reports with that cell.
