Last 18 mos in my area, its either a drought, or a flood. Up to 4.75" of rain now, more than 4 of it in 2 hours. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GaWx Posted yesterday at 01:12 PM Author Share Posted yesterday at 01:12 PM Looking at official rainfall totals, a large portion of AL, TN, N and C GA, NW SC to CAE, and NC including CLT received ample to very heavy (flooding) rainfall since yesterday! Fantastic news regarding the drought and kudos to the Euro Weeklies to being on top of this potential for several weeks.——————This is just from FFC:MOST LOCATIONS HAVE SEE ANYWHERE FROM 0.5" TO 1.5" OF PRECIP WITH SOME ISOLATED LOCATIONS SEEING UPWARDS OF 2" TO 4". 1 LOCATION HAS SEEN 5.29" (CSG). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
olafminesaw Posted yesterday at 02:16 PM Share Posted yesterday at 02:16 PM A quarter inch of rain never felt so wet. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NorthHillsWx Posted 19 hours ago Share Posted 19 hours ago Another underperformer in Raleigh, though we’re at 0.68” including yesterday’s shower. Good rain but was pretty certain we’d get at least an inch given forecasts and models. MTD 0.82” which equals our entire month of April rainfall here. It’s still raining a little so these are not final totals Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rollenwiese Posted 16 hours ago Share Posted 16 hours ago I have no official meteorological observation but I sure am glad to experience this slightly training band of moderate rain northeast of CLT. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Showing 1 to 1.5 inches for my overall area within 40 miles, we got 4.8 inches in that area. Not sure where the data is coming from. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GaWx Posted 12 hours ago Author Share Posted 12 hours ago My area got only a couple of hundredths today (all this morning), much less than expected and thus disappointing. But I’m still thankful we got 1.2” on Saturday (5/2) and am also looking forward to weekend prospects for good rains. It’s overall still going in the right direction.

yotaman Posted 1 hour ago Share Posted 1 hour ago Had a heavy shower come thru late which upped my total for the day to .90". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NorthHillsWx Posted 52 minutes ago Share Posted 52 minutes ago We finished with 0.71” from the event which brought the mtd total to 0.85” which now exceeds the entire month of April at both my location and RDU, if that puts into context how dry last month was. It now looks likely given a few more rain chances we will break 1” of rain for the month, which normally wouldn’t excite me but with the way it’s been that is a serious milestone Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NorthHillsWx Posted 50 minutes ago Share Posted 50 minutes ago RDU only recorded 0.49” with the system and even that paltry total was the wettest day there since March 16 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
