6z GFS keeps the northern half of NC under 1/2” QPF through end of June. Euro would’ve been the same if it didn’t develop and slide an inland hurricane through, lmao
We didn’t fall below 100 until just before 7:00 at my house. Absolutely incredible, hottest day I can ever remember. Peaking at 100 is one thing but sitting between 100-104 for over 6 hours is unheard of here
In the last 10 min we broke 100 at my house and peaked at 100.1 currently fluctuating between 99.4 and 99.9. First 100 reading of the year and I fear it won’t be the last
I think RDU has a shot to break the all-time record again. RAH calling for 102 and RDU has a habit of exceeding that during dry periods as you outlined
This weeks drought monitor showed significant worsening of conditions across NC with the triangle area finally slipping into D4 for first time since the 2007-2008 drought.
So so so dry. This is a top 1-2 drought in my lifetime for the Raleigh area. Yard is concrete and just dead besides where I have had time to spray it in mornings. The once a week irrigation rule was fine until it got this hot
