I was hoping for a little more but I'm starting to think I am the rain shield.  So far .18" this evening. Better than the shut out. Radar looks to be quieting down now. One more last chance of maybe a heavier shower with that cluster near asheboro. looks good up I 85 towards the state line though.

I have had Zero measurable rain in Garner today

A few hours ago we had gusts and the Big raindrops 3 feet part for 30 seconds

It did drop the temp about 13-14 degrees

You can't make this up...the entire system looks to be drying up compared to earlier today. Wow

Have faith, it’s coming tonight

NE Gaston County, NC. We're getting significantly underforecasted rain (thank goodness) and LLM's are largely to blame, by my opinion. My gut feeling about the "ice storm" with perfect dendrites was correct. Almost everyone got it wrong - and I have a degree in nothing! I'm doing the whole monitoring of the motion of the clouds, any vorticity/etc., electrostatic perception wizard way of doing things now and it's working. Can't explain it but I brag lol

All I use now is radar returns, and my mind just bends even without the proper education (though I did do a lot of thermodynamic, electric/fluid flow dynamics and won each one back in college)*

Enjoy it, everyone! The heavier stuff JUST NOW started falling here too.

RDU set yet another record high yesterday, 99. This is the ***16th*** record high set in 2026 and is made even more notable by passing the old record of 15 record highs set in a calendar year (2007), keep in mind it is only June. If you think this has been a hot start to the year, it has now become historic for Raleigh! And we still have the second half of the year and raging El Niño, this year will possibly see the record double.

What a radar to wake up to. Hallelujah

Thankfully the storm wasn't bad at all here. Picked up an inch and a half of rain. We did have a 50mph gust in a Tstorm, but other than that it was barely windy. I see many areas to my east got much more rain and wind to my east. There were reports of a tornado touchdown though in that Tstorm. Hoping areas that REALLY needed some rain have cashed in.

.75 inch so far here. Thanks Arthur.
