WidreMann Posted May 27, 2011 Share Posted May 27, 2011 It's been pouring here for the last 30-50 minutes. Radar estimates around 1.5". I can believe it. It's amazing these narrow bands. But there's a bunch of crap to the SW so I think everyone will get soaked eventually. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UNCCmetgrad Posted May 27, 2011 Share Posted May 27, 2011 I just got my cable, phone, and internet back. Just got hammered last night. Clocked a 54mph wind gust on the anemometer but I would not be surprised if it was more like 65 or higher. Lost four large limbs out of a tree in the front yard. However no more than about 200 yards away a large oak tree fell into an apartment complex with another falling into the parking lot. Fortunately no one was injured. Alot of large trees down throughout the area. Never lost power though. I guess thats one of the few perks of living across the road from an electrical substation.

calculus1 Posted May 27, 2011 Share Posted May 27, 2011 Anyone care to comment on this green streak down the middle of GSP's map? I've never seen that before. Could it be a flood advisory for some river that goes along that path? I can't think of any river that would follow that path. The Catawba is more north and not straight. The French Broad flows north/south in Buncombe county. Thoughts? Edit: Green streak is now gone. Must have been a computer glitch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WidreMann Posted May 27, 2011 Share Posted May 27, 2011 This shall pass soon. i think I am in a subsidence area from the convection to my east. It's filling in nicely.

blueheronNC Posted May 27, 2011 Share Posted May 27, 2011 Flooding on W Franklin St at Columbia in Chapel Hill I didn't know downtown Chapel Hill could flood like that, given that they are, you know, on top of a hill. Crzay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are building a major construction project just to the west of this pics, aka. large hole in the ground across the street from Granville Towers. Wonder if this has anything to do with this flooding. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ORWX Posted May 27, 2011 Share Posted May 27, 2011 Had a really strong thunderstorm here in oak ridge. Strongest one for me I have had in years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FoothillsNC Posted May 27, 2011 Share Posted May 27, 2011 glad to see central NC getting pounded. the PW is high at 1.5 and steering slow, plus once the slow moving front line moves through it will probably rain itself out near Chapel Hill and RDU areas . I wouldn't be surprised to see many counties get over 3" of rain from this conglomerate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Really..... the Weatherbug station on the roof of the school (East CHHS) reports 2.46". Is that likely wrong? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WidreMann Posted May 27, 2011 Share Posted May 27, 2011 Really..... the Weatherbug station on the roof of the school (East CHHS) reports 2.46". Is that likely wrong? I think it's a bit too far north based on the radar estimate location, which is more towards southern chapel hill down into chatham county. There was a spotter report of 2.4" around 1:30 about a mile north of Chapel Hill, and it was still pouring then. So I'm sure 3-4" is reasonable.
