Assuming that's it for the week, I have received 30% of my year-to-date rainfall this past week. It's been a dry year.
-
0.54" today, giving event total of 4.96". 6.67" for the week!
-
Ended up with 1.57" from today's rain. Looks like a good chance for more tonight.
-
A surprise 1.35" overnight/this morning. Closing in on 6" for the week. Can I get a two category improvement in one week?
-
Ended up with 2.85" today. Finally passed 20" for the year. Would love to get some more tomorrow. We're making significant inroads against the drought, hopefully we can keep it up.
-
"Only" 2.70 so far in Wilson. Looking at the radar, looks unlikely I make it to 3.00", which would be a bit of a disappointment. Still great though. At 4.39" for the week and 6.47" for the month
-
Solid hit today. 1.56". Could have had more except for some untimely swerves. 3.77" MTD.
-
Brutal gradient in Orange and Durham counties. Verbatim would be great for MBY. We shall see.
-
A disappointing haul this weekend: 0.07" last night and 0.13" today. RAH AFD is bullish on activity overnight, and radar is blossoming around Charlotte area, but mostly looks like a threat to the sandhills.
-
Visiting Stone Mountain State Park NW of Winston-Salem. Not to hot but quite humid. Late morning thunder booming as we hit the summit was neat.
-
As noted by @GaWx in the Tropical forum, a non-zero chance of tropical moisture being drawn up through the SE even if the disturbance doesn't develop. It would be most welcome (as long as it didn't go overboard).

Eric Webb is pre-emptively savoring the expected tears of east-coast snow weenies during the impending east-based super Nino
-
I have missed out on most of the real downpours so far this month. Only 2.03" MTD, which isn't horrible, by any means, but it's not making any progress into the deficit. Hopefully my time will come.
-
Odd pattern to the cell movement on the RAH radar at the moment. Some cells moving east, some moving west, some mostly stationary.
-
Just getting crumbs compared to Wake and Harnett, but back building of moderate rain has yielded 0.40". 1.93" for the month.
-
First time catching a Wilson Warbirds game, and of course, during the third at bat, torrential rain, with lightning and thunder. Only 0.03 at the house.
-
Wildfire sprouting in Brunswick county. It's been dry down there too.
-
0.25" from a robust but quick a moving cell. 1.50" for the week and month.
-
Looks like a legit cell just parked over the center of the county. Hopefully that is in the Falls lake watershed.
-
After being teased by cells all afternoon one finally caught us. 1.07" total with plenty of good thunder.
-
So technical question: I know that outflow from one cell can kill another. But how does any cell manage to last any length of time and sometimes move 100+ miles without always chocking on its own outflow since that spreads out in every direction?
-
One of the most infuriating weather phenomena to someone wanting rain is when nice juicy cell is gaining strength but not yet decaying and is targeted right at you but just before it hits you a random outflow from another storm comes along and cuts its "legs" out from underneath. This is how that makes me feel:
-
What did the farm get for this month?
-
Missed the good stuff today but 0.25" as a consolation prize, 1.16" for Fri - Sunday. Looks like we'll finish with 4.35" for June, almost all in the second half. Grass is actually pretty green here. We'll see how it survives the big heat.
