FLweather Posted September 1, 2013 Share Posted September 1, 2013 Well still only at a T. Still sitting in a donut shape hole . Appears to be the storms are moving south and eventually connecting. I was noticing earlier how it want to split into 2 lines. Like a surfaced base and upper level boundary... which really may lead to more of a elevated rain instead of deeper storms type setup.

jburns Posted September 2, 2013 Share Posted September 2, 2013 You mean the best storm of the fall, right ? Since it is meteorological fall I'm not a real fan of that. It's based on temp alone and just allows weenies to get excited even earlier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
metalicwx366 Posted September 2, 2013 Share Posted September 2, 2013 It's not fall. It's summer still. I'm not of fan of that also jburns. Hot and humid today. High of 95. 0.00. No storms today, still have the next 7 days with storms in the forecast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FLweather Posted September 2, 2013 Share Posted September 2, 2013 It's not fall. It's summer still. True that. Not until the winds change. Just about a full a line of heavy rain stretching from Rocky Mount NC to Montgomery Al on radar. Tonight is going to be wet in SE Ga. Front boundary coming with storms forming along outflows from the east on the coast. Next couple hours should spark up some. Edit: Should note the wind flow. Surface low near Montgomery, AL extending to Columbus,Ga. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buckeyefan1 Posted September 2, 2013 Share Posted September 2, 2013 CAE reached 94 today and not a drop of rain has fallen imby. Congrats to Calhoun Co right now as the radar has a beautiful red blob overhead. The light show I'm watching from my front deck is awesome Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dsaur Posted September 2, 2013 Share Posted September 2, 2013 I'm not a real fan of that. It's based on temp alone and just allows weenies to get excited even earlier. I'm glad you said something. I was getting pretty excited. They are running the race up the road. Odd that instead of a roar doing a doppler, it's pretty constant tonight. Some thing about the atmosphere...the humoddity/clouds/sound inversions....and other gadgity stuff. . Lots of times in the afternoons it distinctly comes and goes...that great roar. But tonight it's like being next to the Atl airport. Got a few drops this afternoon late. A lot of clouds, and some pretty spectacular booming off to the west. And the roar is gone. It's either raining up there, or it's over. T Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Solak Posted September 2, 2013 Share Posted September 2, 2013 From a friend of a friend somewhere in the Raleigh area just went out and checked our rain gauge. We received 5.1" of rain since it started about 6 this evening. At the height of the storm, the little ditch behind our house was a raging torrent of rapids almost 10' wide with little white caps. I've seen the ditch turn into a stream before, but nothing like that. I sure wish we could have sent some of this rain to the folks battling fires out west.

calculus1 Posted September 2, 2013 Share Posted September 2, 2013 Just got back from a night at Roan Mountain State Park in NE TN. We got rained on yesterday afternoon. We hiked up to Round Bald from Carver's Gap (border of NC and TN) this afternoon with the family. Flew a kite in awesome winds! Low clouds the entire time, but no rain fell. Best storm of the summer just beginning to wind down. Top rain rate was 6.55 per hour, several power blinks, wind probably between 35 and 40. Checked the gauge at home and saw I picked up 0.74 inch yesterday afternoon IMBY. A wet start to September. Just barely beat you, jburns. My top rain rate for that storm was 7.05 in/hr. Of course, that was only time during any 10-minute period yesterday that it fell that hard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
metalicwx366 Posted September 3, 2013 Share Posted September 3, 2013 These wind gusts are anywhere between 65-70mph. Insane winds out here. No power. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
metalicwx366 Posted September 3, 2013 Share Posted September 3, 2013 Picked up 0.32. Missed the heaviest rains to the west. Best storm ever wind wise. How did that not have a severe thunderstorm warning or a special weather statement? No power still in our neighborhood. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You gotta be close man! :lmao: Power is back now. Across the street they are still in the dark. Still looks like a blackout in the area. GPC outage map shows 698 customers still without power across the area. The estimated time for power restoration is 2:15 for the rest of the area.

Met1985 Posted September 3, 2013 Share Posted September 3, 2013 Big storm rolling through. Probably one of the best this summer. Heavy rain and lots of lightning with a heavy burst of wind once the storm got here. Nice storm for the line to be such a concentrated line of storms. Woke up the kids though. They are not as enthused as I am. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
metalicwx366 Posted September 3, 2013 Share Posted September 3, 2013 Fixed.At one point, it really did say 666 customers without power. Then I refreshed the GPC outage map and it said a tree fell down and that outage took out an additional 32 customers power a couple of blocks over. Folks across the street power didn't cut back on till 4am. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
downeastnc Posted September 3, 2013 Share Posted September 3, 2013 really nasty little storn here in Pitt Co wind blown rain and even maybe a little rotation on radar......not bad for midday Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
downeastnc Posted September 3, 2013 Share Posted September 3, 2013 More storms here, widespread 3-4" totals countywide so far today with more on the way, could see a few 5-6" totals around the county before its all said and done today. This on top of the 2-3" we had over the weekend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Solak Posted September 3, 2013 Share Posted September 3, 2013 Had to run into town - was gone for an hour between 1 and 2:00, missed out on a nice dumping of .42" here at the house while we were out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FLweather Posted September 3, 2013 Share Posted September 3, 2013 Dry and humid has been the rule for the most part around here. Storms look nice in the eastern part of NC. Only interesting thing around here is old outflow boundaries on radar and puffy cumulonus clouds. According to the windflow the front came through about 2 hours ago. Still a slight N/NW breeze with a 2 degree drop in dps. I don't know about the rest of you but Im looking foward to Thursdays dry front. This weekend should be nice... low dps, temps in the mid 50s lows and mid 70s for the highs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NCHurricane Posted September 3, 2013 Share Posted September 3, 2013 I could the evidence in my yard of a pretty decent storm when I got home today. Probably the same line that went through downeast's neck of the woods. I got another half of an inch out of that one. Total since Sunday = 3.1".

dsaur Posted September 3, 2013 Share Posted September 3, 2013 It was cloudy, then I head thunder, and the sun came out and it began to spit rain. Saw maybe 74 drops. Nothing in the pot. Still .02 for the month. That's 6 out the the last 6 precipitation events where it fell with the sun out. With amounts going from nothing to .02, and up to .2 last week. Somehow I can't think this is a good sign for the cursed lands. Tony Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
