griteater Posted September 5, 2012 Share Posted September 5, 2012 As others have mentioned, a significant cold front will sweep out this nasty post-Isaac environment late Sat / Sunday. In it's wake comes an early fall special. GFS has highs at CLT of 80, 78, 79 for Mon-Wed with abundant sunshine, and dewpoints getting down into the 40's. May be a tick overdone, but it will be nice.

Ya I am looking forward to getting some more rain to. Has rained everyday this week. Seems like you have been getting the shaft recently. Hopefully that will change tonight. GFS advertising 50° for a low here Tuesday!! Maybe no dog days at all in September, could be a first in a long long time. Looking forward to some 40s here in the mountains. Going to feel great for at least a week it seems. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marion_NC_WX Posted September 6, 2012 Share Posted September 6, 2012 Flash Flood Warning for the Linville Falls area (Avery, Burke, McDowell). Nearly 4 inches of rain has fallen in the past couple hours, some of that will flow down the mountain and into the North Fork of the Catawba River in northern McDowell County. Swift water rescues also being performed in Southern Avery County (per twitter posts) That area could receive more rain over the next few hours as the line from Tennessee crosses over into the North Carolina High Country.

NavarreDon Posted September 6, 2012 Share Posted September 6, 2012 Well, we ended up with a whopping .02" from what was left of the storms last night. I wasn't awake but it seems the Mnts. did it again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CandymanColumbusGA Posted September 6, 2012 Share Posted September 6, 2012 YAY for cooler weather this weekend! It's been a brutal summer down here. The past few weeks have been closer to average but the humidity has been killer! I certainly hope everyone got their share of rain because next week is looking dry as a bone for many. Oh well! I'll take the cooler, fall-like weather over the heat and humidity with storms missing me to the North, East, West and South... Oh, interesting side-note... Last year on September 7th (tomorrow), Columbus only hit 69°! The coolest high for that date in recorded history... I can't wait for that to happen on a daily basis.

Seems like the past few lines of storms that try to come through here get broken up by the mountains. Looks like a good chance of rain as the front comes through this weekend. Fingers crossed for your area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jburns Posted September 6, 2012 Share Posted September 6, 2012 I just picked up a quick half inch in a small pop-up storm. Already 3.58" for Sept. and it's only the 6th. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jburns Posted September 6, 2012 Share Posted September 6, 2012 Congrats. Hot and sticky here in the mountains. I am ready for this weekend! A second storm popped up about 5 miles NW of me and moved over me and gave me a second half inch. 1.04" for the day now. Juicy air. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jburns Posted September 6, 2012 Share Posted September 6, 2012 Strange things going on. I got my first storm from the southwest. An hour later a second from the northwest. Now I'm watching a storm that dropped almost due south from VA. It split in almost exactly in half over Rockingham county. One half moved off to the southeast while the other went southwest. Both are now falling apart. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
valkhorn Posted September 6, 2012 Share Posted September 6, 2012 This is all the way in la la land but it's that time of the year for the GFS to start showing significant cold fronts plowing through the US in the long range. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mackerel_sky Posted September 7, 2012 Share Posted September 7, 2012 My favorite time of year! Always look forward to 1st 50 degree lows.looks like there coming.

cbmclean Posted September 7, 2012 Share Posted September 7, 2012 An anemic 0.12", here in Wilson, but I won;t turn it down. In the past, there have been too many days like today, but where the storms miss us completely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Solak Posted September 7, 2012 Share Posted September 7, 2012 Picked up over ½" late this afternoon in a couple storms. Took the funnel out of the gauge for now, afraid that I was losing some capture in these heavy downpours the area has had lately Hope to pick up more with the cold front over the weekend, because there isn't much to be had after that in the foreseeable future.

shaggy Posted September 7, 2012 Share Posted September 7, 2012 More storms today and added another .75 to my guage. Add that to the 5.2 inches I got on Sunday and Monday and September is starting out with a bang here in eastern NC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MountainMarvel Posted September 7, 2012 Share Posted September 7, 2012 Still humid here. Received 3 1/2" over the weekend. Great start for the month. Fog every morning on the mountains. Looking forward to cooler weekend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Man, you guys are in the middle of a nice moisture pattern It took a hurricane to get me 2 inches, lol. If this rain pattern keeps up you'll have a banner winter!

Lookout Posted September 7, 2012 Share Posted September 7, 2012 Sunday through tuesday is going to feel awesome. Highs only near 80 (per gsp while ffc has mid 80s tuesday) and 60s and 70s mountains and lows down in the 50s (40s mountains) and dry fall like air. It will most certainly get me (and I'm sure everyone else) in the mood for fall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dsaur Posted September 7, 2012 Share Posted September 7, 2012 Hoping today might be my last 90..if I even get there! Last years last was the 14th...and this year ain't last year, heatwise. The trade off will be painful, if familiar. .25 in rain estimated for two weeks via Meteostar. T Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NavarreDon Posted September 8, 2012 Share Posted September 8, 2012 Stunning red sky this am in Weaverville. Not liking the looks of the radar this morning. Looks like almost all of the precip. is to our north. Ah yes & this snippet from GSP's overnight. THE QUESTION WILL BE HOW THE CONVECTION DEVELOPS AND MOVES ACROSS THE AREA WITH THE SYSTEM. THE SRN END OF THE LINE OF CONVECTION HAS WEAKENED AND BECOME SCT THIS MORNING AS IT MOVES ACROSS MIDDLE TN. THE NRN END OF THE LINE REMAINS STRONG AND BKN.

WidreMann Posted September 8, 2012 Share Posted September 8, 2012 RAH drops rain chances. Trends aren't good. Still hoping for a rumble of thunder or two before the night is done. Looking forward to cooler temps after the FROPA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
