Dunkman Posted June 13, 2013 Share Posted June 13, 2013 Things are going down outside here north of High Point. I just managed to beat the storm home. I'll try to grab some shots if anything exciting happens. Strangely there has been very little lightning so far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dunkman Posted June 13, 2013 Share Posted June 13, 2013 Meh, looks like we ended up between stronger parts of the line here. The worst I have seen so far is 2-3 gusts that were borderline severe in strength. I would estimate 50-55 eyeballing them but I suppose out in the open they may have been a little stronger.

jburns Posted June 13, 2013 Share Posted June 13, 2013 Nothing severe here. Radar shows a narrow path between two stronger cells and it looks like I will slide right down that path. Wind is maybe thirty here so far, tops. No lightning, just spitting rain but expect more of that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wind is maybe thirty here so far, tops. No lightning, just spitting rain but expect more of that. Peak gust at GSO was 52mph. That is very much in line with what I saw. I'm sure the storms will strengthen as they most east, but it was a fairly garden variety storm here that we see quite a few times a year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NEGa Posted June 13, 2013 Share Posted June 13, 2013 Severe parameters in north Ga are pretty stout not as much as eastern NC but cape around 4000 with plenty of Dcape and a decent LI as well. it should certainly be interesting this afternoon. until the last hour or so, there was not a cloud in the sky. most here seeme dubious about any storms in their back yard today. its certainly been hot, was 89 on the way home. looks like we might be on the tail end of the storms coming out of NC. hopefully all of the energy isnt going to be stolen by those developing in south tennessee near nw ga lol. i was about to post about the dew point and not being all that great but was wrong on that. dewpoint currently 73 but it doesnt really feel taht way. could be the wind (been gusting a lot this afternoon) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Met1985 Posted June 13, 2013 Share Posted June 13, 2013 Well storm pasts and it was a good one. Lots of lightning and very heavy winds and lots of rain. Some small to mid size braches were blown down. Side walk and yard is flooded. Had some very close lightning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

downeastnc Posted June 13, 2013 Share Posted June 13, 2013 Down here it will take 80+ to knock a lot of trees down, Irene was just a few years ago so it weeded out many weaker trees, I am at work so I need this to hold off till at least 7:00ish so I can get out and see it. We could get hammered and I wont know it inside the plant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jburns Posted June 13, 2013 Share Posted June 13, 2013 I did indeed slip between severe storms. A grand total of .13 of rain. Not complaining, just reporting. Feeling pretty lucky actually. EDIT: I forgot the biggest effect. A temp of 68º. mmm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SharonA Posted June 13, 2013 Share Posted June 13, 2013 I bet we see some warnings start to pop on those storms in AL The one that just passed over Florence & Muscle Shoals, headed SE, was a mega-boomer with lots of lightning, but the gusts stayed below SVR, with no hail, for us. It darkened from grey to nearly black-grey as it approached but has eased up a bit (visually) now - except that the lighter color has that "Hail Inside!" greenish tint.

Dunkman Posted June 13, 2013 Share Posted June 13, 2013 The line looks like crap right now. I am very surprised it has steadily weakened over the last hour. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cold Rain Posted June 13, 2013 Share Posted June 13, 2013 The line looks like crap right now. I am very surprised it has steadily weakened over the last hour. Yep, radar definitely looks weaker. There has been a tongue of lower instability (relatively) coming up from the SW to the NE, right through the Triangle all day. Maybe that's the reason? If it explodes once it gets past Johnston Co., we'll know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it explodes once it gets past Johnston Co., we'll know. Still have 3000 scae and mcape here with high dcape and LI's so I still am thinking I 95 east could get hammered, but the line losing some punch will know how much as soon as RDU updates and we see what kinda wind they reporting.

Bevo Posted June 13, 2013 Share Posted June 13, 2013 I'm a bit surprised on how upstate SC has stayed relatively out of harms way. Me too. A dew point of 70 with really nothing is friggin' insulting.
