The wettest July in RDU history was in 2024 with 9.11” and I think it surpassed that mark today 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cbmclean Posted Saturday at 06:04 PM Share Posted Saturday at 06:04 PM Assuming that's it for the week, I have received 30% of my year-to-date rainfall this past week. It's been a dry year. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frankpc Posted Saturday at 08:41 PM Share Posted Saturday at 08:41 PM We're in the Falls watershed near Laurel Creek (a couple of miles SW of the NC50/NC98 intersection) so we drain into Falls Lake. July to date: 9.1" +4.1" over the last few days = 13.2" We had 4.6" in June, so almost a foot and a half of rain for June/July. We're on a a community well, so our water restrictions are based on the drought intensity ratings. We've now dropped from D4 to D3 to D2 on successive weeks. The trend is your friend :-) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GaWx Posted yesterday at 04:58 AM Author Share Posted yesterday at 04:58 AM It’s endless summer here with a very uncomfy 94 high at KSAV. I haven’t had significant rains at my place since way back on July 14th! However, Mon into the evening is looking promising. If that weren’t to deliver, it would be sprinklers time again.

NorthHillsWx Posted 1 minute ago Share Posted 1 minute ago What makes this month’s rain even more impressive in the triangle is we achieved these totals without a tropical system involved. And it hasn’t been just a couple rogue storms, it has been consistent heavy events from the start to the end of the month. With many areas now over a foot of rain with more possible tomorrow, this month is working towards the top 5 wettest months all time for the area and probably the wettest ever without a significant tropical system to influence the totals. The drought isn’t over but per WRAL we needed 18” in July to end it and I’m sitting over 13” and RDU has nearly 12. That is damn impressive and lakes and rivers have responded as well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
