Hallelujah, we finally got a good soaker. Picked up 0.76” most of which fell from the lead cell, but then enjoyed a couple hours of light rain afterwards. It is beautiful out now. A pleasant 72 degrees with the sun breaking through the clouds. A paltry 1.70” on the month, and this looks likely to stand as our monthly total. 

We need rain

This one has legs. Looks like our first shot at a hurricane this season. 

Thankfully we willed ourselves to 0.25” of rain last night. Brings our monthly total to 0.94.” This was only the 3rd rainfall this month.

Really getting worried about falling into a drought this summer. We’re sitting at 0.69” for the month and this hot weather has made it seem even drier than that. Hope storms this afternoon move west enough to get us some relief 

Got shafted here, but Raleigh area got slammed. Got a friend with a tree on his house and another with one across the road near Garner. We had some decent gusts with the outflow boundary (40 mph I’m guessing) but only managed 0.14” in the rain department while places west east south and north all got at least 0.75”. I’ll take it though. 0.55” over last 2 days brings us to 0.69” for the month

We had quite the shelf cloud in Raleigh on 6/16:
 

Great pics! Was eerie when this moved overhead

We’ll we finally got rain. Only 0.41” but it was much needed. Storm still found a way to shaft me, being airport and areas south and east all got probably double what I got. Brings us to 0.55” on the month, within striking distance of not setting our record low rainfall for a month imby

Missed every drop of rain this morning. Still stuck at only 0.14” for the month. Not looking good until maybe the last week of June. Last May we finished with 0.76.” This June may break that record of driest month imby since I’ve been recording (7 years). 

We really need rain. Sitting at 0.14” for the month with nothing in sight 

Excessive heat warning canceled for triangle. Still miserable, 94.3 HI 99.4 currently 

Made it to 98.9 yesterday. Highest HI was 106.3. Pretty dang miserable. Praying one of these storm systems makes it further east. Seems to be more rain than modeled in western piedmont. Hopefully these systems are throwing out some good outflow boundaries for the afternoon heating to take advantage of and give us some storm coverage. We absolutely need the rain and anything to temper the heat today will be appreciated 

That cell west of Morrisville is really dumping a lot of rain where it’s training. Over 4” showing up on RadarScope. Pretty solid for those folks for an isolated storm 

Only 0.18” today but most of that came after sunset as steady soaking rain so there’s that… Farm up on Louisburg got over an inch of rain 

2022 has ended the streak of years with named storm formations before the official start of hurricane season. This breaks a 7-year streak 

86 degrees at 10:00. Going to be awful out today 

Finished with 0.88” over the weekend bringing our monthly total rainfall to 3.53”

Got completely split by the storms today despite being under a severe storm warning for over an hour. Managed just 0.02” from a light shower

Yesterday (5/23) in Raleigh:
 

Great pics! Was a good storm at my house. Nothing severe, but a lot of lightning and some 30-40 mph winds with some scattered branches down in the neighborhood 

Picked up 1.15” overnight for a total of 1.92” since yesterday 

This also brings the total for the month to 2.65” 

0.76” from the storms earlier. Radar looks juicy incoming. 

23/9/4

Pensacola gusted to 47 when the “center” went by. Based on radar I’d say there was a strong possibility this became a TD just before landfall 

Pretty strongly worded warning with the storm that hit holly springs Clayton and garner 

Picked up 0.20” yesterday which brings us up to 0.73” for the month. Looking quite dry on models, may be a close call on hitting 1” for may. Low humidity this morning is noticeable, it had been quite humid past few days
