Hvward Posted May 16, 2014 Share Posted May 16, 2014 Wow anyone else notice the 50 knot winds rushing from the south. Man those are moving. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
downeastnc Posted May 16, 2014 Share Posted May 16, 2014 Yeah with the population in that area I think its at least borderline. Rain starting to choke it off maybe hard to say......storm not looking as good but if the sun was still up it would have been looking nasty right over Wake Forest certainly was a low hanging wall cloud with that rotation as tight as it got.

I agree. The past few frames look to have rain interfering with the updraft. Might be able to overcome it, we will see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

metalicwx366 Posted May 16, 2014 Share Posted May 16, 2014 Interesting AFD from CHS. Talks of a Meso Low beginning to form in SE Georgia that could enhance the severe threat across SE GA and SE SC this evening: . Lol just saw this. The meso-low was well formed at 9:21am when I made my post about it, then CHS says it is beginning to form at 1pm. It actually caused wind damage in the southern part of our county(no warnings).

WxBlue Posted May 16, 2014 Share Posted May 16, 2014 Radar measurements are showing 4+ inches of rain (redish shade on my GRLevel3) all over Triangle at this moment with a scar of 5-6 inches (darker red) over Durham and Henderson areas. KRAX also measured 2-3 inches of rain IMBY as well in JoCo. Ridiculous amount of rain today and it still haven't slow down a bit at all in the past 12 hours. EDIT: All time daily rainfall record of 5.64" from June 14, 2006 at RDU just got broken. 5.90" and counting... EDIT2: Scratch that. The 5.9" report is actually 5 miles to NE of RDU.
