Everything is one giant impervious surface rn unfortunately

Today is a good day for the Catawba headwaters

It won’t bust the drought but this weekend and upcoming week is going to significantly bruise it. Up to 1.31” here myself and luckily it’s mostly fallen as steady soaking rain.

.77 over the 2 day period

A day late and a dollar short on the wedge. We can’t do anything right around here. Hope RDU folks score this round tho.

Love a good slop fest pasting. Sun angle is going to be a thorn in our side this time of year.

How much of this is snow?

Heck yea boys! I’m finally exceptional at something

I hear you brother. I think many of us still have flashbacks. I was down by the lake last night and couldn’t help but think how ironic it was to see it at record low levels. It immediately reminded me of that day and what I saw on the opposite end of the spectrum.

My excitement is building. Pulse thunderstorm season is one of my favorite times of year. Hope this wedge doesn’t last too long and we get to see some fireworks over the next few days.

I’ll settle for below average rain at this point by our normal standards. I’d be over the moon if we could just average a .25” per week at this juncture. .

Like clockwork, the short-med range is drying out fast. .

Boy, I should get into day trading

I’m going to miss having a model that could reliably sniff out thermals and CAD. I’ll never forget the coup it scored during the Jan 2025 storm when every model said I’d get several inches and the NAM said enjoy your sleet fest. About 2 hrs in, it went to pingers and never looked back.

Thursdays drought monitor will be interesting. I’d expect some marginal improvement along and south of I-85 but I’d say the foothills to the piedmont and southern VA are all about to be in an exceptional drought.
