CAD_Wedge_NC Posted July 16, 2014 Share Posted July 16, 2014 Had a severe warned cell move through while at work today CLT. It was the best lightning display I have seen all summer. Also had a nice soaking rain. Looks like the cells lived up to the forecast today. Now bring on the cooler weather. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

superjames1992 Posted July 16, 2014 Share Posted July 16, 2014 Who opened the floodgates? After getting screwed out of meaningful rain all day, it's the mother of all downpours out there now. It's quite an isolated shower, too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Between Sharon Harris and the wood treatment plants I would be concerned out in mo cure. It's actually really good. We are on a spit of land between The Haw and the Deep rivers 3 miles west of where they cross US1. The water table moves pretty well under us. Having been on well water most of my life I was very interested in quality. We had it tested as part of due diligence. It is very clean and the flavor is the best I've ever had right out of the tap.
