marsman Posted Sunday at 12:41 PM Share Posted Sunday at 12:41 PM High of 97.1 yesterday at 5pm, but it felt worse at 10:30 when the HI was 110 and I was doing some tree pruning. I couldn't make it more than 40 minutes outside. T of rain yesterday evening. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marsman Posted Sunday at 05:54 PM Share Posted Sunday at 05:54 PM Heck of an outflow coming off those storms east of Raleigh. edit: delete ginormous video. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cbmclean Posted Sunday at 05:55 PM Share Posted Sunday at 05:55 PM Some beautiful cells blossoming between Raleigh and here. Unfortunately they do not appear to be moving much at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GaWx Posted Sunday at 08:58 PM Author Share Posted Sunday at 08:58 PM A new small cell literally just popped up here just before 5PM. No thunder yet, but raining pretty heavily. 5th afternoon in a row with rain! Edit 5:50 PM: That lasted ~25 minutes and there never was thunder. Now a 2nd cell with some heavy rain is coming in on the same track moving in an unusual direction, SSE. Hoping today’s totals don’t get too high because otherwise there’d be trouble here. Edit on 7/14: Yesterday (7/13) I ended up with ~0.75”, which brings the 5 day total for 7/9-13 up to a whopping 6.35” and MTD up to 7.25”! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
olafminesaw Posted Monday at 09:46 AM Share Posted Monday at 09:46 AM RAH has the highest flash flood warning count on record YTD 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cbmclean Posted Monday at 04:48 PM Share Posted Monday at 04:48 PM RAH has really cut my POPs for the upcoming week. Just yesterday it was 40 - 60% most of the week; now it's mostly ~30%. I missed out on the good stuff last week so I'm feeling a little bit of disquiet as we go into the dog days of summer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NorthHillsWx Posted Monday at 05:32 PM Share Posted Monday at 05:32 PM Picked up 0.12” yesterday from a shower that popped up overhead from that massive outflow that expanded from storms that originated in Franklin county. Not sure anyone watched yesterday’s radar loop in central nc but that was an insane explosion of an outflow boundary with textbook cells popping as it propagated in all directions. Looked like a bomb on radar 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We were in that boat last month when everyone else was being flooded. Thankfully the tables turned here and we’re at 5.23” for july with half a month to go Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It hasn't been super dry.. yet: sitting at 1.57" for the month and we're still living off the good vibes of our 10.00" June. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NorthHillsWx Posted Monday at 09:00 PM Share Posted Monday at 09:00 PM We’re getting a very heavy afternoon storm with a couple scary-close lightning strikes. Will probably end up close to an inch of rain but it’s still pouring 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GaWx Posted yesterday at 12:19 AM Author Share Posted yesterday at 12:19 AM Today had a very tropical feel and look here thanks to the deep onshore flow to the north of Invest 93L coming in from several hundreds of miles offshore. How deep? It was at least to way up at 200 mb, which is near 40,000 feet! And this is expected to continue for much of the rest of this week. It is fairly rare that this far north experiences that deep of a tropical flow for that long of an uninterrupted period. This deep tropical flow: -gave us a constant pleasant ESE 10-15 mph breeze with gusts to over 20 -wind coming off the ocean kept the highs in the BN upper 80s but also kept dewpoints in the mid 70s -the skies much of the day had a tropical paradise look of towering cumulus coming off of the ocean mixed with deep blue -isolated showers came off of the ocean moving at a brisk pace and tended to diminish as they went more inland (I had no rainfall today) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
suzook Posted yesterday at 12:52 AM Share Posted yesterday at 12:52 AM Went from rain every day beginning of June, to absolutely nothing in my area. Storms literally split around me every time they pop up. Getting dry around here, grass is browning, and the oaks are dropping leaves. Its all or nothing around here.

NorthHillsWx Posted yesterday at 01:19 AM Share Posted yesterday at 01:19 AM Had a nice outflow cooled evening in the 70’s followed by a period of steady but light rain that didn’t amount to much but brought the daily total to 0.20” and MTD to 6.49” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yotaman Posted yesterday at 01:36 AM Share Posted yesterday at 01:36 AM Picked up a nice .48" today. High of 88 which is down from the high of 92 yesterday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GaWx Posted yesterday at 03:52 AM Author Share Posted yesterday at 03:52 AM A pretty fast moving small shower has moved NW from offshore to here on the NE side of Invest 93L. There may be more to come within the next couple of hours. Edit: more quick showers came through hre in the early AM of 7/16, but I got nothing more than a few hundredths of an inch.

NorthHillsWx Posted yesterday at 11:53 AM Share Posted yesterday at 11:53 AM Between the afternoon storms seemingly setting up in same spots every day and the extreme rains from the tropical system I’d have to think some sites between the triangle and triad have to be approaching all time records for total July rainfall Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cbmclean Posted yesterday at 05:39 PM Share Posted yesterday at 05:39 PM Is there some circulation offshore? All the cells seem to be moving in a circular motion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yotaman Posted 20 hours ago Share Posted 20 hours ago Picked up another .34" today. Felt very tropical outside before the rains came. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cbmclean Posted 4 hours ago Share Posted 4 hours ago Got a happy 0.34" yesterday: 1.91" for the month. Not bad, but a desert compared to NorthHillsWx's backyard Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
olafminesaw Posted 2 hours ago Share Posted 2 hours ago Looks like some convergence over I40, surprise surprise that's where I would expect higher chances of flash flooding this evening 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
