Enjoy the nice chill up there! I’d love to feel it. But down here we’ll be well into the 80s every day per forecasts for the foreseeable future.

Had a high today of 69 at 1:40 am. Daytime high was only 62. Love days like this.

Nearly 3 inches of rain here in my backyard today from that quasi-stationary cell earlier and then a second round 30 mins later. Still constant thunder and lightning outside but majority of the activity is to the south now. Just got back in my hometown today from Anchorage, Alaska so that was quite the change.

I had several hours of mainly light rain today (5/26).

Edit: I estimate 0.2” for 5/26 and 2 day (5/25-6) total of ~2.2”.

Low of 61, high of 72. Humidity definitely increased today. .18" in the bucket so far at 7:45 pm.

A steady all day soaking rain. 1.13” in the bucket so far with some heavier returns set to move in overnight. Currently at 63.5 which is also the high so far as we are warming up into the night. Raw day with mostly 50’s and rain. Another great soaker before the peak of summer

Despite cloudy skies dominating the day, KSAV still had a near normal high of 87. This along with dewpoints ~74 much of the day made it feel quite sticky. 

We’ve had rain from thunderstorms the last 2 hrs . KSAV received nearly 1”.

KSAV hasn’t had a high below 84 for the last two weeks! The month has averaged +3 for the mean temp. Despite a very wet month, the avg high there so far this month has been 87! This is very different from the significantly cooler northern SE!

Picked up .92" this morning. This gives me 7.29" for the month.

1.32” looks to be event total here

Yesterday’s high of 57 at Greensboro was a record low maximum

We’re about to get blasted by a strong thunderstorm just to the S moving NE. Winds are gusting.

Edit: rain ended up surprisingly light considering how the radar had looked on approach though . It semi-petered out as it got here though I was on the NW corner. Total <0.1”. But most of the nearby islands appeared to get a decent hit.

 May has been like a summer month here.

Yeah we saw that one slide just south of us.  Got some good thunder out of it though.

And yes, the past couple weeks have been very summer-like, if a little cooler than actual summer.
