Snowless in Carrollton Posted June 28, 2016 Share Posted June 28, 2016 0.02" yesterday and 0.66" for the month. Bring on cracked earth and 100's!! I'm seriously entertaining the thought of picking up and moving to the Pacific NW in about a year. It's miserable for me too much of the year here. Awful humidity, high temperatures, terrible allergies, and I don't see nearly enough snow. I've really started to resent living here. its awful. We have to endure terrible summers and then in winter we get just enough cold to tease us and end up getting no snow. I can't think of a worse place to live.

NWNC2015 Posted June 29, 2016 Author Share Posted June 29, 2016 Two renegade storms fired up over south-west VA past midnight when dry air and lower dewpoints were in the forecast. Expect localized floods with the 20% chance of storms in the higher terrain all this week. That's how you know its summer in the mountains.

downeastnc Posted June 29, 2016 Share Posted June 29, 2016 I got a dilemma, I am suppose to head to Rocket City at South of the Border tomorrow for my annual fireworks haul, its 300 miles there and back. The family cookout/redneck fireworks display is suppose to be Sunday night ( pig picking, keg, the works) but the weather forecast isn't filling me with joy. I hate to waste a day driving there and back not to mention drop $3-400 buck on fireworks I cant shoot off. Maybe I wait a day, I have Thur-Tues off anyways so I can always go Friday, maybe the forecast timing will change. RAH Friday through Sunday: The best word to describe the long termforecast is redundant, and perhaps not in a good way. The globalmodels are showing a very unsettled pattern through the end of theforecast period with several forcing mechanisms moving through thearea that could signify a fairly wet and stormy holiday weekend.That is the bad news. The good news is that most of the activity wesee should be convective in nature and not like the continuousstratiform rain we saw yesterday. What this means is that while theforecast may call for thunderstorms every day, they most likely willnot be occurring all day and not everyone will experience thunderevery day. That being said, your chances of experiencing athunderstorm or periods of rain at some point during the holidayweekend is quite high and contingency plans are encouraged in caseyour area receives more than its fair share of storms this weekend. To break down the science a little better as to what is causingthis, we start on Friday with a frontal system and eastern CONUStrough extending southward from a low pressure system over Ontarioand Quebec. Once this moves through on Friday evening, surface highpressure over the southwest Atlantic will cause the front toorientate in a more west to east direction and the high will alsokeep it from advancing further south. Therefore the front will stallout over our area while upper level flow becomes more zonal,allowing short waves to travel along the frontal boundary and kickof convection through the weekend. Therefore, training storms withheavy rain could translate into a flash flooding threat. Hightemperatures will be near 90 each day with a few degrees cooler onSunday. Lows in the upper 60s to low 70s.

Although Sunday does look bad right now, it could change. I have seen 100% chance of rain here and actually get nothing. You never know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
