Cold Rain Posted July 15, 2014 Share Posted July 15, 2014 Don't fall for the bananna in the tailpipe. You know, Brick has to build up his platform on the way up so that he can have the massive cliff dive on the way down. That's a nasty complex of storms N / NW of Wilmington Haha, yeah...true story.

Gusty winds to 30-40 mph & brief heavy rain possible thru 4pm. Stay safe! Yep, the radar is lighting up. I would pinpoint areas along a line just east of Wake County and areas along a line just east of Guilford and down through Randolph County as the most likely areas for severe over the next hour or two (in the Piedmont).

Hvward Posted July 15, 2014 Share Posted July 15, 2014 Decent rotation on the storm to the W of Roxboro moving NE. Those storms look pretty interesting on radar. Getting into some decent shear also +35kts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cold Rain Posted July 15, 2014 Share Posted July 15, 2014 US National Weather Service Raleigh NCJust now · 308 pm: Storm over Cary heading toward Raleigh. Gusty winds and small hail possible. That piddly little line of storms over Wake will probably intensify as it moves through and go severe on the other side. It might hurt instability here for when the main line moves through later this evening. Hopefully, we'll all get some rain at least. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jburns Posted July 15, 2014 Share Posted July 15, 2014 The storm straddling the Guilford, Randolph county line just went over me.

Cold Rain Posted July 15, 2014 Share Posted July 15, 2014 It seems a little odd that the SPC hasn't at least issued a MD for central areas at all. Apparently, the severe threat is much less than advertised...surprise surpise. But at least there are numerous showers/storms as advertised. So, many areas should be picking up rain. Just got a special weather statement on my phone for the dry air moving through Waycross. Haha! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NC_hailstorm Posted July 15, 2014 Share Posted July 15, 2014 238 SVR T'Storm warnings from GSP so far this year with only 9 watches(6 SVR T'Storm,3 Tornado).That's a really lopsided number in my opinion. In comparison to Raleigh which has been more active this spring/summer anyway,has 149 SVR T'Storm warnings with 15 watches(8 SVR T'Storm,7 Tornado).Peachtree City is almost an exact number.
