Hopefully we score in this projected pattern, looks good now. We desperately need it in the upstate. Looks wet the next couple of days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then they said the next weekend, last weekend, was going to be even cooler than that? It was dead wrong, the models just suck year round Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WinstonSalemArlington Posted August 8, 2017 Share Posted August 8, 2017 It has been phenomenally awesome and cool in the Triad. Not only did we not reach 90 until AFTER Independence Day, but we have not hit 90 since July 25, when it was 91. We had our heat in mid July, but that's been about it. Meteorological Autumn begins in 24 days! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Been a long time since weve had a summer like this one and almost went totally unscaved from the excessive heat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was thinking the models have been spot on. A couple posters on here will complain NO MATTER WHAT! This has been one of the nicest summer's I can remember (up there with 2013 and 2003) and would take it every year. Most in our area have enjoyed it I think. We're not done yet, can still get hot in Sept, but odds go down. Looks like many could have an August without hitting 90 as well.! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WinstonSalemArlington Posted August 23, 2017 Share Posted August 23, 2017 The Triad has reached 90 twenty times this year, 15 times in July, 5 times in August. With only 70's to mid 80's forecasted for the next ten days, it is possible the Triad may have seen its last 90s of the year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wncsnow Posted August 23, 2017 Share Posted August 23, 2017 Models are trending more to pulling the remnants of Harvey east towards our area eventually thus giving areas a good rain, especially upslope areas in WNC, SC and N GA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And more dust comes up when you cut grass , than grass clippings . It really is bad here and looking like this strong front, is gonna screw us again with no rain Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
