calculus1 Posted June 9, 2014 Share Posted June 9, 2014 Your storm was massive...infact it was massive enough that I got a great photo of it, all the way back here along the Blue Ridge... Yeah, it felt good to finally get hit with one of these "scattered" storms. Usually, this spring/summer, they've been scattered everywhere but here.

Solak Posted June 9, 2014 Share Posted June 9, 2014 Had to run into town this morning, and apparently Clayton grabbed a few hundredths, but nothing IMBY. There were a few damp spots on the road about 3 miles away, and a few tiny puddles on the parking lot seams in town. The air even smelled of freshly fallen sprinkles.

WxJordan Posted June 9, 2014 Share Posted June 9, 2014 Your storm was massive...infact it was massive enough that I got a great photo of it, all the way back here along the Blue Ridge... Severe Thunderstorm 6-8-14 (Hickory) 001.JPG I am so thankful for finally cashing in on some much needed rainfall. A very nice thunderstorm with heavy rain (0.77 inch) just rolled over MBY. That's the first meaningful rainfall in over two weeks here. That storm has now gotten a STW from GSP as it rolls toward Lincolnton. This storm produced very heavy rain in a very short amount of time. I registered nearly 2.5 inches of rain in just 30 minutes. I did not have any hail or damaging winds as it pushed through. Also, there was not much thunder or lightning from the storm, which kind of shocked me. But, it was nice to receive some rain for a change. The grass grew nearly an inch last night!

yotaman Posted June 9, 2014 Share Posted June 9, 2014 80 here and muggy. Dew point is 75. Had a brief downpour that only dropped .11 inches of rain about 1 hour ago. Looks like it may be a rainy week for us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
downeastnc Posted June 9, 2014 Share Posted June 9, 2014 Getting numerous showers here but they last 5-10 mins tops but are pretty darn heavy when they happen......they keep refiring just west of here and drifting NE so some spots in the county should do well today others not so much Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jburns Posted June 10, 2014 Share Posted June 10, 2014 Full inch of rain this evening after getting a half inch last night. I guess I'll be mowing the next two weeks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sparklecity Posted June 10, 2014 Share Posted June 10, 2014 HRRR says that line of storms in Alabama is gonna go poof as soon as it enters the upstate. I don't doubt it one bit. There as been an organized line a handful of times the last couple weeks to enter the area around 3 or 4 in the morning just to fall apart. What does it take to get one to swing through in the afternoon during peak heating! This pattern is just awful and there is really no end in site. We have had 20-40% pops just about everyday the past month and its only really rained twice....and don't get me started on the GFS. At least the GFS is persistent with the tropical system so eventually it will probably be right lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Solak Posted June 10, 2014 Share Posted June 10, 2014 Storm went warned just after it passed us last night. Picked up .64". Closer to Clayton, one station has twice that much. Crunch is temporarily gone from the lawn. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
calculus1 Posted June 10, 2014 Share Posted June 10, 2014 Picked up another 0.35 inch in yesterday's storm. Hoping this is signs of the the upper level flow changing a little so that we don't continue to get downsloped all the time here in Hickory.

yotaman Posted June 10, 2014 Share Posted June 10, 2014 Had a thunderstorm complex come thru early this morning that put down .32 inches of rain. That rain has caused out dew point to sky rocket as soon as the sun came out. Currently it is 90 with a dew point of 81. Heat index is 111. Ughhh. I love the rain but hate days like this.

Crapper Jim Posted June 10, 2014 Share Posted June 10, 2014 89... <Mowed the lawn in the heat of the day. The surprise of the day is... I'm not dead! Felt like death, though. Bermuda grass (most of my lawn) is just coming out of dormancy! I ain't mowin' nothing but weeds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Highest temp I ever inhabited, at least briefly, was in Florence, SC. 105... and it was humid! Sky is deep blue, now... cumulus is making that striking "ice cream cone-top" image to the west.

sparklecity Posted June 11, 2014 Share Posted June 11, 2014 Those storms that impacted waycross look to be heading almost due north. Any chance these can make its way into SC? Or did the gust front work over the atmosphere too much? I want to take a look at the HRRR but it hasn't updated since 10z. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or did the gust front work over the atmosphere too much? I want to take a look at the HRRR but it hasn't updated since 10z.I have been watching those as well. They are already moving through areas that got hit by the gust front and seem to be holding together well and even strengthening. I think they will hold together, but time will tell.
