GaWx Posted Monday at 02:28 PM Author Share Posted Monday at 02:28 PM This 72 hour map shows how well much of N ATL metro did as well as much of E GA (not my area), NW 1/2 of SC, part of NC foothills/mtns and E Carolinas, portions of E TN, and some of N AL. It also shows the shaft for the immediate RDU corridor although their best 24 hour period was just prior to this as posted earlier: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

olafminesaw Posted Monday at 07:18 PM Share Posted Monday at 07:18 PM If the HRRR is to be believed the Triad is going to be the big loser today after rain slid to our SE earlier. We did get enough to get the ground wet anyway, but clearing up again for now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NorthHillsWx Posted Tuesday at 12:04 AM Share Posted Tuesday at 12:04 AM Upstate is legitimately getting enough rain to end the drought there 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cbmclean Posted Tuesday at 02:23 AM Share Posted Tuesday at 02:23 AM Still can't get a flush hit... nickel and dimed my way to 0.73" today, 0.94" since Thursday. 1.94" for the month. From Winston-Salem to Rocky Mount, the N piedmont and coastal plain has been the loser so far. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cbmclean Posted Tuesday at 02:26 AM Share Posted Tuesday at 02:26 AM On the plus side, today was much wetter in E NC than the mesos and CAMs were depicting yesterday evening. Hopefully that repeats again tomorrow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That puts me at 2.21” for the week. We need about 20 inches to end the drought. As always, the heavier rains are isolated. For example, my son lives in Clemson. He is up to 4.31” for the week and 7.88” for the last 30 days, which is 4.10” above normal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
suzook Posted Tuesday at 09:38 AM Share Posted Tuesday at 09:38 AM Total of 2.56" since Saturday, with the potential for a couple more inches the next week. Amazing how green everything is again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

suzook Posted Tuesday at 08:41 PM Share Posted Tuesday at 08:41 PM Picked up another.60 this afternoon. Heavy rain one minute, sun out the next, then back to rain. Very tropical like. Up to 3.10 since Thursday. More heavy rain incoming. Got a mow in before the rain! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Avdave Posted 22 hours ago Share Posted 22 hours ago Im surprised with the way the radar looked like around 1130am today we got nothing here today at RDU. Yesterday was good though here. 5/22: .54" 5/23: .07" 5/25: .48 Better than the goose egg. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cbmclean Posted 22 hours ago Share Posted 22 hours ago Another day, another glancing blow. Cell ran out of steam just as it reached me. 0.04" today. 0.98" for the wet(ish) period. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GaWx Posted 21 hours ago Author Share Posted 21 hours ago Another day, another ~trace of rain since midnight. Only ~0.30” of rain here in 3.5 weeks! I kid you not. This area and nearby has been about the driest in the entire SE over that period (since May 3rd). Even KSAV has had only 0.25” May 3rd-26th! That’s the driest there for that period since 2011. But alas, I’m still looking forward to a much wetter pattern locally. In addition to chances Wed/Thu, Fri-Tue is looking to be quite wet. So, I remain optimistic. Edit: Downtown CHS has also been very dry for the same period with a mere 0.17”! Like for here, the sea breeze has been keeping most of the shower activity inland for this week so far. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NorthHillsWx Posted 11 hours ago Share Posted 11 hours ago Even with the rainfall over the past week RDU is only at 1.54” for the month. With rain chances decreased through the rest of the week, looks like yet another month here with less than 1/2 the normal rainfall for the month 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GaWx Posted 38 minutes ago Author Share Posted 38 minutes ago 26 minutes ago, Snowacane said: It really is quite amazing how the rain keeps missing this area Same here once again: This evening has been the ultimate tease with my having to travel ~8 miles west, where I drove into heavy rain from a band of thunderstorms. A little NW of there, there actually was a FF warning! Pt. Wentworth, Pooler, and Bloomingdale, all in NW Chatham county, got very heavy rain with 3-4” in some cases (all in <2 hours)! Even KSAV finally got some rain. I was hopeful that the band would soon push to my house. But as I drove back home, I noticed that the rain stopped, the roads were dry, and the sky no longer was threatening. Then when I got home, I saw that no rain had fallen. And now it looks like the atmosphere has stabilized with radar looking unimpressive. So, unless things change later, this may end up still another dry day at my place. But even if so, I remain hopeful for tomorrow and especially the weekend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
