Solak Posted August 11, 2015 Share Posted August 11, 2015 I'm taking the funnel out of the gauge today "just in case" "WITH THE ATMOSPHERE VERY MOIST (PRECIP WATER VALUES IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD OF 2.25 INCHES)THE HEAVY SHOWERS/STORMS WILL BE VERY EFFICIENT RAIN PRODUCERS WITH RAINFALL RATES UPWARDS OF 3 INCHES/HOUR POSSIBLE. IF THIS OCCURS OVER AN URBANIZED AREA...EXTENSIVE STREET FLOODING SHOULD OCCUR." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IF and at this point looking at the sat loops its a pretty big if we can get some periods of sun late morning into the afternoon I bet we do see some really efficient rainmakers. PWATS are as high as they have been in weeks I imagine..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Solak Posted August 11, 2015 Share Posted August 11, 2015 They've already lowered today's 1/2" - 3/4" down to 1/4" - 1/2" Really need an overperforming system today. Still sitting on just .10" over the last 19 days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brick Tamland Posted August 11, 2015 Share Posted August 11, 2015 Let's see if this actually happens today. A line of storms like this has been very hard to get this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yotaman Posted August 11, 2015 Share Posted August 11, 2015 Cloudy skies and pleasant temps for August. Currently at 79/75. 60% chance of rain today and tonight. Unless we get good rain today, there will not be much of a chance for the next 7 days afterward. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sparklecity Posted August 11, 2015 Share Posted August 11, 2015 0.16" total. Just like I thought, too far east. Everthing good was back in Georgia and the western usptate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Midnight Moon Posted August 11, 2015 Share Posted August 11, 2015 Wow. Beautiful rain. So far .96 today just North of Zebulon, NC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sparklecity Posted August 11, 2015 Share Posted August 11, 2015 I get watch more storms slide just a couple miles south of me again. Same story as usual. KSPA will get their inch plus of rain again today while I'll be lucky to get a few drops. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really thought you would get nailed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sparklecity Posted August 11, 2015 Share Posted August 11, 2015 Where do you live again? Greer off of I-85? you just can't catch a storm this year. I really thought you would get nailed. Eastside of Spartanburg, a few miles south of 85 and just south of 29. Supposed to get between a 0.50" and 1.00" total the last 2 days and we won't even come close to that. I knew as soon as I looked at the radar and saw the flow that mby was screwed. Never rains on mby with this type of flow. It's always a few miles away.

sparklecity Posted August 11, 2015 Share Posted August 11, 2015 Storms are just getting shredded east of 26 in Spartanburg. Looks like western upstate wins again. I can't wait until we have this god awful flow all winter. I'll be going to Boone. Edit: Now the storm resumes it's eastward movement as soon as it will clear mby by a mile lol. I guess I will get to smell the rain though so I guess that is something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SN_Lover Posted August 11, 2015 Share Posted August 11, 2015 Finally got 3 days straight of rain! it feels great to finally breath right again. I feel sorry for people who are about to get on the roads in Charlotte. Patience is the key Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Solak Posted August 11, 2015 Share Posted August 11, 2015 I literally laughed out loud!!! WRAL TV 3 mins · Today's rain is a relief for some thirsty lawns. How is yours doing?

sparklecity Posted August 11, 2015 Share Posted August 11, 2015 Just looked outside. Literally right on the edge of the cloud. I swear this has got to be the worst microclimate in the upstate. I don't know why I even get pissed off anymore. It feels like I should be used to it by now because it happens so often. My lawn already has brown spots in it again. The day after it rained 0.60" last week I was digging into the ground to replace some grass that had died, and it was bone dry just an inch down. These piddly amounts we get evaporate within a blink of an eye. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yotaman Posted August 11, 2015 Share Posted August 11, 2015 A brief but heavy rain shower just went thru and dropped .13" on us. Big storms have formed to my west and southwest. We will see if they hang together long enough to give us the 1" - 2" forecasted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
downeastnc Posted August 11, 2015 Share Posted August 11, 2015 Looking more organized with the actual front up in VA, there is a decent squall setting up and its hauling ass SE could be interesting in 2-4 hrs for central/eastern NC.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess that is what RAH was showing today with their simulated radar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
downeastnc Posted August 11, 2015 Share Posted August 11, 2015 I guess that is what RAH was showing today with their simulated radar. Maybe, it wont be widespread severe but a few places might hit 40-50 mph in gust if you get in the worst of the squall, but there was a good bit more sun out that way and once it gets I-95 and east it might fizzle since we have had clouds and rain all day....still from the Triangle north especially along the NC/VA border it could be pretty nasty.

I don't think they said anything about widespread severe storms. They were just showing a line of storms stretching across the whole state coming through today. That is what I was referring to. I wonder if we will even get that line of storms to form. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
