burrel2 Posted June 24, 2011 Share Posted June 24, 2011 Thanks, I think I'm just gonna ride this one out at the house. I'm getting some pretty heavy rain here now, hopefully the hail core will drift over this way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LithiaWx Posted June 24, 2011 Share Posted June 24, 2011 It's likely to get nasty for the Suburbs of North Atlanta in a couple hours. I added Purple arrows to show general motion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikepie Posted June 24, 2011 Share Posted June 24, 2011 looks like a nasty bow echo might be trying to develop near Rome, will hit north Atlanta suburbs in a while. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UNCCmetgrad Posted June 24, 2011 Share Posted June 24, 2011 Just got clipped by a nice storm to my south. Another good lightning producer as we have had plenty of those this summer. Had some brief very heavy rains and gusty winds but it only lasted for about a minute and a half. 0.08" in the bucket but it would have been a nice bonus if I could have got a direct hit with the drier pattern coming about.

jrips27 Posted June 24, 2011 Share Posted June 24, 2011 Looks like I will get a direct hit from a nasty line within the next 1-2 hours...Looks like its starting to bow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FoothillsNC Posted June 24, 2011 Share Posted June 24, 2011 Just got drenched working near hwy 74 in Kings Mtn. Too far from the truck to find shelter from the rain, but it was nice to get cooled off in the shower. Lots of lightning bolting all around and now I can see the tops of the cells in SC. Looks wicked down there. Also I'm feeling the gust front winds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jrips27 Posted June 24, 2011 Share Posted June 24, 2011 Wowzers! Just got nailed by 60+ mph winds! Two trees went over though One must've hit some power line because we lost it for about 5 minutes. Most impressive winds I've ever seen! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Snowless in Carrollton Posted June 24, 2011 Share Posted June 24, 2011 We had a lot of hail here about 30 minutes ago. Picked up a quick .55" of rain in about 15 minutes. 3.68" for the month so we're close to our normal monthly rainfall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

juspeachy Posted June 24, 2011 Share Posted June 24, 2011 Sunny and 90°. Congrats to the rain getters again. Water hose detail in the AM again. I thought that was going to be us.

dsaur Posted June 24, 2011 Share Posted June 24, 2011 Well, I am able to say that after better than a month of the rain missing me to the north....yesterday I got a pattern change....finally, I am able to say...it missed me to the south!! It is beginning to be a thing of intense interest, in a very negative sort of way Like that awful Braves loosing streak that just went on and on, and on and on after Royster bobbled in the 13th game. There is now a big line of storms headed this way, but notice a defined split between heavy rain shields...it looks like it is trying very hard to ride that rain hole right over my house. I can see the very black clouds and see lightening all over the north. The thunder has me bracketed. The house has even odds that I get rain out of this, but as I'm only 100 drops over .3 for the month, I'm setting the odds at 10 to one I don't see more than a tenth. lol. Stay tuned gambling fans.

Gastonwxman Posted June 24, 2011 Share Posted June 24, 2011 Well after getting hit by the storm a couple of nights ago that produced a great deal of lightning, I am without internet now (using a friend of mine's computer atm). Don't know when I will be back but for now I won't be able to post as much. Hope to be able to get back on for good sometime soon. When I do, I'm going to switch over from my ISP since AT&T has got on my last nerve with their bills. I'm going to make use of CLEAR (anyone ever used it). Getting a new job soon involving the roofing business. This one pays $100 on the spot every time you give them a call and help out for a while and with the way the storms have been, I suppose I'll be able to get several opportunities to hook up with the crew. Got to enjoy two good thundershowers today, one that had popped and went for Southern Gaston county and the other (a bit stronger) dumped a heavier shower and a few flashes of lightning. Very refreshing it was. It's great to see a change compared to last year where it was few and far in between but from what I can tell in the near future, it's about to get pretty dry for a while.

LithiaWx Posted June 24, 2011 Share Posted June 24, 2011 Big tree down on my way home from work. I think I underestimated the winds. It would had to of been 60+ to take down the tree that fell. I have a few pics but they do it no justice at all. I'll post later tonight! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NEGa Posted June 25, 2011 Share Posted June 25, 2011 Just got clipped by a little storm coming out of Habersham Co heading into Banks & Franklin Cos. Very little rain, but lots of thunder & lightning. i was just getting ready to reply to this post earlier when my internet went out...even 3g wasnt really working in the storms lol. i was going to ask which one - had several decent storms move through here today (and yesterday). there has been a lot of lightning and wind lately other than yesterday, the amounts here have been mostly .25" range (today was .50) but they have added up. almost 3" the last 10 - 14 days or so Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LithiaWx Posted June 25, 2011 Share Posted June 25, 2011 Actually two trees down in pretty close proximity to each other. It must have been a hell of a wind gust through that area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dsaur Posted June 25, 2011 Share Posted June 25, 2011 WooHoo!! I lost the bet but won some rain. It is coming down so hard I can actually hear it raining from inside the house. I bet I find .5 to an inch in the gauge when I look. Man, that was a long, long wait. T Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SP Posted June 25, 2011 Share Posted June 25, 2011 Hey guys I'm staying in Hilton head island for a week. Been watching the storms pass to the north with a cool light show at sunset.....along with cloud structures. The front should dip it's way down here in the early morning hours. The storm passing to the north east of me is really starting to fire up some nice lightning . Way cool being able to view them from this distance. It's like being on the ocean back home in NJ.
