shaggy Posted July 18, 2015 Share Posted July 18, 2015 plenty of heat and humidity here east of these storms for them to grow off of. Hoping to get slammed in an hour or two. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sparklecity Posted July 18, 2015 Share Posted July 18, 2015 Crime center of SC, I mean Spartanburg, looking to benefit from these storms today Don't be jealous of our "big city" crime lol. Ok, now it looks like the storm may hit mby. Of course, every storm (besides last week) I thought would hit us either fell apart or took a last second jog to miss us. Guess I'll find out soon enough if the curse of shetley is broken. Edit: Uh oh, outflow boundary racing out ahead of it. That's never a good sign.

mackerel_sky Posted July 18, 2015 Author Share Posted July 18, 2015 Praying for that cluster just S of Asheville , to organize and drop down here! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sparklecity Posted July 18, 2015 Share Posted July 18, 2015 Ughhh this thing is literally prob half mile from me with the heaviest echos. Nothing so far. Edit: Heavy Rain! Just prob half a mile south of me looks like they are getting it pretty good, but I should at least get a quarter inch out of this maybe more depending how long it lasts. Very breezy too. I couldn't have been much further east than I am to get rain out of this. I'm right on the edge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sparklecity Posted July 18, 2015 Share Posted July 18, 2015 The curse is broken! 0.92" and more than the 2 storms combined last week! 1.75" in 6 days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Solak Posted July 18, 2015 Share Posted July 18, 2015 The curse is broken! 0.92" and more than the 2 storms combined last week! 1.75" in 6 days. Good deal! We had a subtle breeze fro a few seconds, and 40 minutes of someone else's thunder. Another "Probably would have been pretty if it was dark" distant cluster of storms.

cbmclean Posted July 18, 2015 Share Posted July 18, 2015 Wilson NC got some nice rain. My rain gauge is out of commission so no measurements. Was a nice little storm though. All the better for being unexpected. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

downeastnc Posted July 18, 2015 Share Posted July 18, 2015 .73 with the storm today, brings July to 3.77".....I haven't had less than 4" in any month so far this year IMBY. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
calculus1 Posted July 18, 2015 Share Posted July 18, 2015 Storm passed very close by me this afternoon, but no rainfall IMBY. Just down the road, less than five miles away, lightning struck Bethlehem Baptist Church and totally gutted the sanctuary. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mackerel_sky Posted July 19, 2015 Author Share Posted July 19, 2015 Just increased my monthly total 6x's! Picked up .63, with a nice storm! Cooled the temp down from 96 to 71 in about 20 min! Very much needed rainfall ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Solak Posted July 19, 2015 Share Posted July 19, 2015 0.19" for the day. Man -- looked like you were gonna get slammed.. we got the dreaded "T" from that impressive line of storms. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Isopycnic Posted July 19, 2015 Share Posted July 19, 2015 Man -- looked like you were gonna get slammed.. we got the dreaded "T" from that impressive line of storms. The whole line up this way were individual cells that really didn't move much. They just form up along the front line. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
No snow for you Posted July 19, 2015 Share Posted July 19, 2015 Picked up 1.3 inches from that storm. First rainfall in a long long time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kvegas-wx Posted July 19, 2015 Share Posted July 19, 2015 Too hot and humid to even set foot outside today. This summer is quickly going to waste. We repeatedly get the sideswipe of rain with little benefit and then all the humidity that comes with it. Headed for 100 index already this morning. Ugh!

Solak Posted July 19, 2015 Share Posted July 19, 2015 Not sure, but I have a hard time imagining the temperature still rising another 14 degrees. 84 at 11:30 --- forecast says 98. Far as I'm concerned, it can stop right there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sparklecity Posted July 19, 2015 Share Posted July 19, 2015 90°/73° with a heat index of 98° at KSPA. This was at 11:35 Sbcape is almost 2500, mucape is around 2500, and dcape is about 800. Lift index of -5. Storms firing early again across the mountains. Wouldn't be surprised if this was another active day, although probably not as widespread as yesterday due to the shortwave not being as potent.

downeastnc Posted July 19, 2015 Share Posted July 19, 2015 Should see plenty of storms but they wont be as organized as they where yesterday, it will be much more hit or miss.....HRRR seems to have more coverage over the western half of the Carolinas.

We repeatedly get the sideswipe of rain with little benefit and then all the humidity that comes with it. Headed for 100 index already this morning. Ugh! I'm about to go outside and mow. But I grew up with crib slats wide enough apart to stick my head through, standing on the front passenger seat of the family car on the highway, no bike helmets, regularly rode on the back of pickup trucks, on the 4th was encouraged to play with fireworks, played with heavy metal lawn darts, played outside unsupervised from dawn to dusk and never heard of SPF, second hand smoke everywhere, lead based paint, no child proof caps on meds, drank from garden hoses not plastic bottles, little league had tryouts and not everyone made the team, ate sugar in and on everything and didn't get fat because I got out and moved. Lets mow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Far as I'm concerned, it can stop right there. Picked up over an inch of rain yesterday and it has translated into air you can wear outside this morning. The humidity is just atrocious out there today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
