NorthHillsWx Posted June 15 Share Posted June 15 Extremely big bust this afternoon in central NC from flood perspective. Picked up 0.08” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cbmclean Posted June 16 Share Posted June 16 Finally getting some of the goods. Have picked up 1.37" which is more than 7x what I had month-to-date combined. Would love to have more tomorrow and Tuesday to stock up the soil before the big heat arrives. Edit: Mother Nature appears to be trying to make up for all the cells that have veered to the north/east/south/west, split apart, or mysteriously died in the last two weeks: up to 2.42" and still coming down.

cbmclean Posted June 16 Share Posted June 16 Apparently my whining about cells missing all month was noted. Had 2.76" when I went to bed last night. Then an additional 3.15" overnight for an event total of 5.91". I declare uncle. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
downeastnc Posted June 16 Share Posted June 16 Pitt County had almost 9" in places and widespread 5-8" totals, many roads underwater this morning and even some washed out....most of it fell in 5-6 hrs. Dozens of water rescues last night as roads flooded and trapped people. This has led to widespread flooding across portions of Greene, Pitt, and Martin Counties, with MRMS maximum ARIs of 70-90 years. In other words, there is roughly a 1% chance of an event like this occurring in any given year, making it a notable flash flood event. What`s more notable is that last night`s event was not associated with any tropical system. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yotaman Posted June 17 Share Posted June 17 Picked up another .29" early this morning. Is very humid today. Earlier, before the clouds rolled in, the temp hit 91 with a dew point of 79. Felt like 109. Our highest so far this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GaWx Posted Wednesday at 01:42 AM Author Share Posted Wednesday at 01:42 AM An area of pop up thunderstorms, some heavy, is moving in to this area from the SW this evening. Edit: the overnight total turned out to be an impressive ~1.3”. MTD through AM of 6/18: a wet ~6.65”. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GaWx Posted Wednesday at 08:36 PM Author Share Posted Wednesday at 08:36 PM We had another popup heavy shower just now. Likely <0.25”. I ended up with only ~0.15”. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NorthHillsWx Posted Wednesday at 08:54 PM Share Posted Wednesday at 08:54 PM Hottest day of the year so far here. 95.1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yotaman Posted Wednesday at 10:12 PM Share Posted Wednesday at 10:12 PM 93 was our high. Currently just after 6 pm it is 88/80. Feels like 105. At one point it felt like 112. Super thankful for a/c. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yotaman Posted Friday at 01:37 AM Share Posted Friday at 01:37 AM High of 91. Dew points up near 80 made it feel like 110 at times. Can't wait until October. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GaWx Posted Friday at 03:31 AM Author Share Posted Friday at 03:31 AM The highs in the area were 93-95. But that tells only some of the story as the dewpoints/RH made it feel like ~100-102. I had to go into a house whose AC is broken. It was 91 inside and this was at 8PM. I was soaking wet within 5 minutes! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
olafminesaw Posted Friday at 12:47 PM Share Posted Friday at 12:47 PM GSO has managed to record at least a trace of precip for the past 15 consecutive days going back to June 5th. Somehow that amounted to a MTD precip anomaly of only +.16, with the highest single day total being .64. Raleigh is at +1.02, Fayetteville +1.04, Asheville +1.28, Charlotte +.86, Danville -.49, Wilmington +.31 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cbmclean Posted Friday at 02:02 PM Share Posted Friday at 02:02 PM Got 1.40" yesterday, for a weekly total of 8.22"! Soil is at least well loaded with moisture to prepare for the heat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yotaman Posted Saturday at 01:42 AM Share Posted Saturday at 01:42 AM Thunderstorms fell apart by the time they hit my area. Only got .10" from them. Big news was the much cooler weather and lower dew points. High was 87 with dew points in the low 70's much of the day. Nice breeze all day long. Not looking forward to next week.

yotaman Posted 21 hours ago Share Posted 21 hours ago Day 1 of heat wave was 94. Extreme heat watch in affect for Tuesday and Wednesday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cbmclean Posted 19 hours ago Share Posted 19 hours ago That 8.22" last week increased my YTD total by more than 50%! What was a very dry year statistically is now on track at 24.30". Just got back from visiting the wife's family in western PA and all the plants look lush. We'll see how they fare after a week of big heat. Interestingly, their region of western PA has had almost no summer so far, with constant rain and cool temps. A switch has just flipped though, as it launched into 80's yesterday. They will be in the upper 80s to 90 next week with high humidity, which is very unusual for them. Although I enjoy visiting them I was anxious to escape before the heat as central air is almost unknown up there, and most of the bedrooms are upstairs. It can be very uncomfortable sleeping at night even in normal weather. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cbmclean Posted 5 hours ago Share Posted 5 hours ago OK, what's the over/under for the "RDU offset" for this week's heatwave? I have +3 °F. I am thinking it won't be quite as bad as last year's flash drought as we have been a bit moist going into it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Airports last reading was 96 currently 96.8 here and going up. Last year RDU was usually at least 2 degrees above my reading Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yotaman Posted 4 hours ago Share Posted 4 hours ago 2 pm and it is 94/80 for a feels like temp of 115. Power went out this morning for 45 minutes. Thankfully it came back on quickly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NorthHillsWx Posted 3 hours ago Share Posted 3 hours ago As of 2:20 pm we have cracked 100 at my house. Currently 99.9 but we hit 100.1 a short time ago. Likely to max out a bit higher given it’s only 2:30. RDU record today was 99 I’m sure that gets erased Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yotaman Posted 16 minutes ago Share Posted 16 minutes ago It's like a sauna out there. Currently it is 98/78 for a feels like temp of 115. A bit earlier it felt like 120 as it was 96/82. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
