FoothillsNC Posted June 27, 2011 Share Posted June 27, 2011 My thoughts (and map) on next weekend's Heat Wave for the Southern states/Miss. Valley. The GFS has some parts of Ark and Mo, western KY /TN having heat indices over over 116 to 120, with dewpoints in the 80's in the middle of the day . Unreal. Widespread actual temps over 100 for Carolinas, Ga,Ala, Ms, TN, Ark, Ky http://shelbyweather.blogspot.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LithiaWx Posted June 27, 2011 Share Posted June 27, 2011 I'm nowcasting but I think something might be getting ready to fire off in Northern Alabama. It appears as it could be trying to form a line of storms. It's really early but the satellite and radar indicate this could be happening. I wonder if some of this might be getting triggered by outflow from the MCS in the Midwest. This is all speculation and we all know how dangerous that is. But we shall see!!!

Cyric297 Posted June 27, 2011 Share Posted June 27, 2011 Welp, they've lowered the previous 50% chance for today down to 30%. *sigh*. Two clusters missed us just to the South overnight... did manage to catch a few errant raindrops on the car this morning. So, another 'trace' gets recorded, and we still set at 0.80" for the month. Looking at the storms moving just east of Cary, my guesses are that your percentages just went WAY up for today... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Solak Posted June 27, 2011 Share Posted June 27, 2011 Talk about a storm raining itself out! That warned cluster dropped 3+" in Holly Springs... we got .04" from the same dieing cell 20 miles to the East. At least the temperature dropped down from the oppressive 91/70 it was just before that to a now clammy 77/68. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

downeastnc Posted June 27, 2011 Share Posted June 27, 2011 Getting some heavy rain with this line of "storms", almost no lightning and thunder and winds never gusted over 30-35 but they warned the entire line so maybe someplace got hit better than my area. Overall though the entire area prolly got 1-2" of much much much needed rain. To late to save the corn most of the crop in eastern NC isnt going to yield, but this will help the cotten and soybeans.

Snowless in Carrollton Posted June 27, 2011 Share Posted June 27, 2011 I think my weather station must be a little off or something. It says my temp is 85 with a dp of 79 !! I've never seen a dp that high here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dsaur Posted June 27, 2011 Share Posted June 27, 2011 The line yesterday had some good winds, but nothing too impressive. Ended with about .2" for yesterday. That brings my total for June close to 6"!!! Thats +2" from average! Wow, you've been doing real well!! After only getting .3 in over a month, I've gotten 3 inches in just 4 days. Another storm hit while I was up working Atl. today. Saw the storm clouds from up in Jonesboro, but never saw any heavy rain, just some spitting on the drive home. In my neighborhood there was some street flooding when we pulled off of 19/41. Had to rub my eyes and palm slap my head to be sure I wasn't asleep Too bad the rain clouds waited until all my grass died before they found my house.

GaWx Posted June 27, 2011 Share Posted June 27, 2011 As I walk on the treadmill here in Sav., I have enjoyed looking out the window at a slow moving tstorm producing some real nice much needed rain along with a few lightning strikes. No wind of sig, or hail. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Solak Posted June 27, 2011 Share Posted June 27, 2011 OK - that was a little better. Trailing shower long after the main cluster passed by just dropped .21" in 10 minutes. Over an inch for the month now Still doesn't depict how dry it's been for the last 7 weeks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ORWX Posted June 27, 2011 Share Posted June 27, 2011 Congrats to those who are getting the much needed rain east. Hoping one of these pop up storms North and west of the triad meanders on my way. Still bone dry here in my little bubble. .42 since June 1st. 5.50 since April 10th, imby. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
