jburns Posted June 11, 2012 Author Share Posted June 11, 2012 1.22" for the storm total so far. Much, much more to my SE about 100 miles or so. More than doubled my storm total to .05". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jrips27 Posted June 11, 2012 Share Posted June 11, 2012 Storm total up to 1.09" now. Nice thunderstorm moved through about an hour ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Solak Posted June 11, 2012 Share Posted June 11, 2012 .14" in one 40 minute shower earlier, now watching the first of 2 formerly heavy bands of rain showers erode as they approach this area. Sure was hoping for the heaver amounts once predicted... will have to be content with whatever we get. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Solak Posted June 11, 2012 Share Posted June 11, 2012 All them pretty deep oranges and yellows are suddenly turning light blue on radar They even skipped the green on the way! Heck, that 2nd line of showers might just be clouds by the time it gets here. *sigh* I certainly wasn't hoping for Pensacola totals, but this system sure has been a disappointment on this side of Raleigh.

buckeyefan1 Posted June 12, 2012 Share Posted June 12, 2012 More than doubled my storm total to .05". I hope that changes for you soon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dsaur Posted June 12, 2012 Share Posted June 12, 2012 Much ado about relatively little down here. .6 for the system, nothing today, but 20 drops, or so. The dunes are drying out nicely. The Desiccated Cadaver Endurance Challenge will resume momentarily. T Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blue Ridge Posted June 12, 2012 Share Posted June 12, 2012 While submitting my daily precip report to CoCoRaHS this morning, I realized that I've seen at least a trace of rainfall eight out of eleven days in June so far, but my monthly total is a mere .63". After a wet start to the year, it seems this micro-climate has settled into a "nickel-and-dimer" pattern once again. Today looks to be no different; radar downstream is rather abysmal. Fail on my part. Over an inch fell this evening. I'm seeing a light shower at the moment and more is possible overnight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DaculaWeather Posted June 12, 2012 Share Posted June 12, 2012 1.87" for this event. More to come today in advance of the cold front. Nice blob of rain to our west in AR/MS right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

calculus1 Posted June 12, 2012 Share Posted June 12, 2012 0.69 inches of rain yesterday. Another 0.69 inches overnight since midnight. What a refreshingly wet pattern we seem to be in! I already have 2.99 inches of rain recorded for the month of June after ~8 inches in May. We might dry out a little later this week, but I'm hoping for more today as the cold front passes through.

Brick Tamland Posted June 12, 2012 Share Posted June 12, 2012 Not sure how much I ended up with, but it rained hard at work and at home yesterday. More rain today. I'm ready to get it out of here and enjoy the awesome weather coming up. After looking at this forecast, though, I wonder if this is really June in NC.

shaggy Posted June 12, 2012 Share Posted June 12, 2012 Just had .80 in about 15 minutes. I am on nightshift and was trying to sleep but the noise on the roof woke me. Its weird because this is how I remember summers use to be. Warm temps with rain every few days and a wet ground under your feet. The last 2 summers were more like the 7th level of hell with a brick under your feet from the dried ground being so hard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brick Tamland Posted June 12, 2012 Share Posted June 12, 2012 Sun is out now in RTP. I wonder if the rain is done for my area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Solak Posted June 12, 2012 Share Posted June 12, 2012 Hit, miss or dissipate? If this line doesn't slide North, and if it holds together, we might get a nice soaking. If it misses, the once forecasted widespread 1-2" this week (greatly reduced since Sunday) will be a huge bust. Of course, with a rather robust 80% chance this afternoon and tonight, some of us have to be the other 20%, I guess *sigh* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Solak Posted June 12, 2012 Share Posted June 12, 2012 It stayed together and dropped a nice .53" - and came down heavy enough to water the woodland gardens!!! No water hoses tomorrow Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
metalicwx366 Posted June 12, 2012 Share Posted June 12, 2012 Got some good rainfall today. Raining and thundering again currently. We seen rain everyday starting on June 5th excluding June 8 and today we saw more rain than all those days combined. Radar estimates close to 1.5 here.
