Lookout Posted July 31, 2014 Share Posted July 31, 2014 54 this morning. Yesterday was 82 for the high and 59 for the low. If summer was more like this all the time I wouldn't hate it so much. Isn't that the truth. 56.5 here this morning. Quite a few daily records fell of course but Montgomery set their all time july record low at 59. Setting a monthly record is no small thing. But that was by far not the coldest. I noticed a couple of isolated upper 40 degree readings (as low as 47) this morning across the northern parts of ga and even more so across alabama on meso/wunderground. That is truly stunning for the last week of july. Although those lows in the upper 40s are technically only 20 to 25 degrees below normal, it is probably more like hitting the 90s in january since it's so hard to get a pattern that would lead to such temperatures this time of year. A person could literally live the rest of their lives and not see temps as cold as this morning in july. In particular the last week of july which is one of the hottest on average.

drfranklin Posted July 31, 2014 Share Posted July 31, 2014 I live just south of downtown Greenville, SC - we've been inundated with heavy rain this morning - I've picked well over 3 inches in under 3 hours. Falls Park should be roaring today! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NC_hailstorm Posted July 31, 2014 Share Posted July 31, 2014 2.06'' will be the monthly total if it doesn't rain more in the next 8 hours or so. Still fairly dry here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jburns Posted July 31, 2014 Share Posted July 31, 2014 2.06'' will be the monthly total if it doesn't rain more in the next 8 hours or so. Still fairly dry here. Almost exactly the same here. 2.16" for the month. If my yard was expensive grass, it would be much browner than my still green weeds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
metalicwx366 Posted July 31, 2014 Share Posted July 31, 2014 97 and sunny. Our highs are 5+ degrees higher than forecast each day. Haven't had to mow grass in a month. The yard is brown. Ended the month at 0.23. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cold Rain Posted July 31, 2014 Share Posted July 31, 2014 Had between 5-6" at the house for July. Had a nice break from mowing in June, but that has long since ended. Brick shouldn't complain either as he's had about the same. And by the way, it's 81F on July 31 as of 4:00 pm in the afternoon, under mostly cloudy skies. That's pretty amazing right there.

Solak Posted July 31, 2014 Share Posted July 31, 2014 Ended up with an amazing 8.41" for the month of July, although you really can't tell it from the soil. Much of that fell in spurts of 1-2" in an hour or 2, (2.19, 2.97, 1.45, .91, all in thunderstorms) and a lot of it became runoff. All our gardening is is raised beds over red clay soil, so, despite the amounts, the beds remain relatively dry. The weeds/grass, on the other hand, have had to be mowed every 5 -6 days this month just to keep the mosquito population at a reasonable level.

NRVwxfan. Posted July 31, 2014 Share Posted July 31, 2014 Very heavy rain moving in here, oddly from the southeast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
superjames1992 Posted July 31, 2014 Share Posted July 31, 2014 Just a typical mid-summer day here. Highs topping out in the upper 70s. Oh, wait...... That's not typical at all. The rain shields have mostly held up so far IMBY. Just a few sprinkles is all thus far, but the shields should begin to break down after sunset. I hope....

jshetley Posted July 31, 2014 Share Posted July 31, 2014 Rain that is headed my way is breaking up. I dont think the heavier rain makes it to anywhere in the flood watch area tonight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mackerel_sky Posted July 31, 2014 Author Share Posted July 31, 2014 66 degrees currently! Did not break 70 today and picked up 3.58 inches of rain today!!! It was amazing, it was raining before 7 am and never stopped completely until around 3 pm! This will very badly skew the July totals and avg! Before today, we had received < .50 for the month, now are July total precip will be avg! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WxJordan Posted August 1, 2014 Share Posted August 1, 2014 Light rain falling right now, looking for heavier rain after midnight as the energy rounds the base of the trough coupled with good low level southeasterly flow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EmersonGA Posted August 1, 2014 Share Posted August 1, 2014 We picked up a surprising inch of rain tonight. That should put me barely above 2" for the month since we've been screwed since mid June compared to those just a couple of miles up the road.
