eyewall

The death ridge in early April won't help either.

The pollen count is not as high as Georgia here yet but the haze is starting to show up and there is a brush fire south of Raleigh:

Day 1 of the real pollening. The haze is likely to get quite a bit worse with no rain in sight.

That should make Wake County people feel a little better lol.

You can exceed 300kA with positive strikes for sure.

Lock it in:

Definitely impressive for this point in March!

Yeah I knew it when the air didn't have the feel of an outbreak day like it did on 4/16/2011. On top of that as you stated the winds were calm and that is definitely not how it goes around here on most high end days.

Yeah overall it truly was a bust yesterday and even on air meteorologists are basically saying the same. They are taking a beating today.

Those were not 65+ knots. Those would be marked in black.

Most of those came with the NCFR last evening more than likely.

I am getting more wind now than at any point during the storms.

Yeah this is an epic bust for sure. One of the worst I have seen. The bad thing about it is the cry wolf syndrome that will follow.

It would be nice if that would come this way lol.
