Just a perfect evening for a stroll (I won't complain about this year's particularly persistent crop of mosquitos)
-
We obviously still have a good deal of surplus rain from July into the first week in August in Greensboro. However, with about a third of an inch of rain since the 9th, and entering what appears to be a stable period of dry weather and low dewpoints, we may get some minor drought conditions. No big deal, but it's just crazy how we get stuck in these persistent patterns this year.

Here's what the CPC put out in May. We should end up slightly above average I think for the whole summer so not bad
-
Ensembles project it at second coolest of this century. Behind 2004. Greensboro is project at coolest since 1996
-
Yes! Trying to confirm that you are correct in observation that such sustained high humidity is unusual, not to be pedantic (although I know if anywhere, this is the place to be pedantic)
-
Looks like a fishy reading but technically Savannah-Hilton head airport dropped to a dewpoint of 62 on Monday, breaking the streak of dewpoint at or above 68 degrees, which ranks third highest all time

As we move out of this wet stretch, much of the state experienced fairly impressive totals. Greensboro is the one exception and is only a bit above Average MTD: Greensboro 2.5 Raleigh 7.81 Fayetteville 3.58 Wilmington 3.94 Charlotte 6.09 Asheboro 4.84 Greenville 6.27

We have a legit shot at the coolest August on record
-
The next week looks wet, quite a big of variability on just how wet
-
Current radar looks like...dry air is eating into our snowfall
-
Pronounced Guilford county split going on. Odd how things can change in just a few weeks
-
Greensboro's all time record max min is likely to be set for a single month, the lowest it has dropped was 68 degrees which would beat the old record of 67 set in 2016 and 2015 (July as well). We are only +2 on the month, I think that the lack of a break from the heat/humidity is what has made this July feel worse than the last few.
-
The GFS and Euro doesn't have us above 90 again after Thursday until August 10th. I'd count that as a win.
-
Central Florida getting record heat tells me the ridge was just a bit further south than expected
-
Now that is the definition of an isolated severe storm
-
Denise, and Floyd rainfall totals it does look like more than half came from non tropical systems :
-
The Graham station is getting close to it's all time monthly precip record of 16.85" set in September 1999 (a tropical system i assume). Up to 14.12 and counting.
-
Another 24 hours or so before dewpoints finally drop below 70. Should put the streaks near second place all time
-
It has been worse than normal, although July is typically fairly consistent in that regard. I think the rain makes it feel worse because RH% has somewhat of an impact on how humid it feels as well, not just the dewpoint.
-
Looks like some convergence over I40, surprise surprise that's where I would expect higher chances of flash flooding this evening
-
Looks like the graham station is currently missing the data from yesterday, but it was prior to yesterday at 12" and the record was 12.01" going back to 1902.
-
RAH has the highest flash flood warning count on record YTD
-
I thought I'd pop in here because of the curiosity of the FFW over just Charlottesville. Don't think I've ever seen a warning for just one city like that before
-
Soggy weather will continue until morale improves
-
Yeah, GSO has 6 consecutive hours of thunderstorm obs. That is pretty rare I would have to imagine. It wasn't just occasional thunder either, it was mostly at least every minute or two during that timeframe
