calculus1 Posted May 10, 2015 Share Posted May 10, 2015 Getting dry around here. No rain since April 25, and that was only 0.22 inch. It was another seven days of dry before that rain event too. So, we're going on three weeks with less than a quarter inch of rainfall IMBY. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So, we're going on three weeks with less than a quarter inch of rainfall IMBY. So crazy how different that is from here..........NAM still has me around 2-3" total from Ana, I got .50" already since midnight, if we got the high end of that it would put MBY close to 5" for May ( with 20 days to go in the month) after almost 8" in April. All this rain is getting a bit silly here and you guys cant buy a drop. Hopefully you guys cash in tonight into tomorrow all it takes is one good storm this time of year to get a quick inch of rain.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yotaman Posted May 10, 2015 Share Posted May 10, 2015 We finally got a band to rotate thru us. Dropped .32". The most we have seen in 3 weeks. Hopefully more to come. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
downeastnc Posted May 10, 2015 Share Posted May 10, 2015 We finally got a band to rotate thru us. Dropped .32". The most we have seen in 3 weeks. Hopefully more to come. Kinda stuck in between bands here light rain from time to time but nothing to ad so far, the next band is working its way this way and looks kinda nasty, and I fear eventually we will be on the N and E side of the COC as it moves just west of us according to NHC so that's gonna be wet unless it loses some steam by then. New Bern looks to get nailed here in a bit as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It does feel awesome outside today under the tropically cloudy skies with the light breeze. I'm trying hard not to go full Shetley with my complaining, but it's hard to resist...

mackerel_sky Posted May 10, 2015 Share Posted May 10, 2015 Nice storm rolled off the mountains just a few minutes ago! Heavy rain and some good lightning Dropped from low 90s to upper 70s! Picked up a much needed .30 inches of rain! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yotaman Posted May 10, 2015 Share Posted May 10, 2015 Light to moderate rain falling now. Have picked up .17" since it started up again. That makes .49" for the day. They are saying 1 to 2" for us tonight. I think we will be lucky to get 1". Temp currently at 70, dew point 69. Winds probably in the 15 to 25 range.

downeastnc Posted May 11, 2015 Share Posted May 11, 2015 .46" yesterday. 2.07" from Ana so far. Had 1.35" in the gauge just now when I checked that is from noon yesterday to now.....still a little light rain but it should end soon as Ana leaves us. Tomorrow they are calling for 89 if we can hit 90 it will be the first 90 of the year. If we don't then it might be another week or so till we do. Our mean date for hitting 90 in May 5th so we are already 6 days past the average first date.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Solak Posted May 11, 2015 Author Share Posted May 11, 2015 It's fairly miserable out right now (for mid-May) as I take a break from mowing the overgrown weeds/grass. Amazing what 2"+ in 2 days will do to a yard. Currently 86/68. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
