Thanks to either a sea breeze or outflow and shadow from a distant thunderstorm, our temp dropped from 94/81 to 82/71, which it is currently. Took the dogs for an early walk before the evil sun comes back out.
Had a good thunderstorm roll thru very early this morning which gave us .81" for the day. Currently cloudy and 76/73. Not bad for early July. Not looking forward to the coming heat on Friday and Saturday.
Never thought I would see a temp of 94 with a dew point of 59 here in Eastern NC in late June. Humidity is at 31%. Amazingly dry air in place for late June.
Had a 90% chance of heavy thunderstorm's yesterday but only got .10" from a steady light rain. Really missed the forecast yesterday although the light rain did keep the temp in the mid 70's most of the day. Currently sunny and 89/68. Dew point has actually dropped during the day so far.
Almost 2 pm and dew point has dropped to 63.
Well the storms finally hit and dumped .75" on us. Cooled it off to 72 but then the sun came out and the temp and dew point shot up to 80/78 with the humidity at 95%. You could cut the humidity with a knife. Still high but de point has dropped to 75 and humidity is down to just 80%.
Once again the big storms just missed us. Got only .04" from them with lots of thunder. Did cool us off from 88 to 77 for a bit but it is back up to 85/75.
