mackerel_sky Posted September 4, 2014 Author Share Posted September 4, 2014 It is amazing to me how the exact same spot on the Wake/Johnston Co line can get a storm 3 days in a row...5 miles from me, and I get nothing. 3 days in a row.You've just been Waycrossed! I'm sorry ! 81 and dry Edit: we were suppose to get some kind of sea breeze front or disturbance heading this way to provide the trigger for storms this afternoon, let me tell you how that went..... Went well if you wanted dry! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Solak Posted September 4, 2014 Share Posted September 4, 2014 Well, the storms are popping as the boundaries collide --- we're going to miss them, but someone in the general triangle area going to get something. Fun stuff to watch develop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brick Tamland Posted September 5, 2014 Share Posted September 5, 2014 Well, the storms are popping as the boundaries collide --- we're going to miss them, but someone in the general triangle area going to get something. Fun stuff to watch develop. I got some storms again last night and decent rain. Had three rounds of rain yesterday. One in the afternoon, another in the evening around 6:30, and some hard rain last night around midnight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Solak Posted September 5, 2014 Share Posted September 5, 2014 We got grazed with .08" yesterday evening, but really enjoyed watching the not too distant lightning. Thunder last night reminded me of a very busy bowling alley. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't expect to get storms the past two days, but I did. I don't even remember the last time I got storms two days in a row. I wonder if today will be the trifecta.

I need rain as bad as anybody else, but the cooler weather , low - mid 80s and even just a little rain and these temps will help the overly dry conditions ease a little!
