magpiemaniac Posted October 7, 2019 Share Posted October 7, 2019 I drove down to Little River, SC yesterday to pick up our new dog and actually rain through a brief rain shower on my way back. It was officially 0.01”, but that’s 0.01” more than I’ve seen in a month. I had forgotten what rain was like. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Really wish that dew point would drop so I could open the windows up especially if it is not going to rain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mackerel_sky Posted October 8, 2019 Share Posted October 8, 2019 Hot and muggy today! Feels like August, not a drop of rain yet, and this is our best chance out of next 10-15 days! Drought begets drought! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fantom X Posted October 8, 2019 Share Posted October 8, 2019 high of 66 after low of 62. socked in clouds all day- it is a bit chilly. but still no rain - day 42 without measurable rain here.

NorthHillsWx Posted October 9, 2019 Share Posted October 9, 2019 Picked up the first measurable rain since Dorian overnight and yesterday afternoon from the heavy mist that occurred all afternoon. A drought-busting 0.01" lol. In all seriousness it was nice to have some of the dust knocked off the truck, but wow it has been dry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

magpiemaniac Posted October 11, 2019 Share Posted October 11, 2019 Good chance of rain in the forecast for Sunday. Probably the best chance we have until almost the end of the month. Let the rain dance begin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gman Posted October 11, 2019 Share Posted October 11, 2019 Praying for rain. Was walking the Furman Lake yesterday. The lake is way down, but even worse was the view toward Paris Mtn. Acres of trees on the west side have died. It’s not from leaves dropping. These are large patches of many dead trees. It is sad to see that happening so quickly. I hate to say it, but it’s a disaster in the making if someone drops a cigarette. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Solak Posted October 12, 2019 Share Posted October 12, 2019 I'm not going to hold my breath, but one can hope... Sunday Night A chance of showers and thunderstorms, then showers likely after 8pm. Mostly cloudy, with a low around 62. South wind 6 to 9 mph, with gusts as high as 18 mph. Chance of precipitation is 70%. New precipitation amounts between a half and three quarters of an inch possible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

magpiemaniac Posted October 13, 2019 Share Posted October 13, 2019 Today’s shower totaled a quarter of an inch IMBY. I’ll take what I can get. Hoping for at least a much needed half an inch of rain Tuesday night/Wednesday morning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shack Posted October 13, 2019 Share Posted October 13, 2019 Just arrived home from shopping and can verify that clouds sometimes produce precipitation that looks like fairy spit here at MCN. (but I still never turned on my wipers) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kvegas-wx Posted October 14, 2019 Share Posted October 14, 2019 It wont go away! Simply amazing that we continue to creep towards the 80° mark in the triad again this week. Hoping the midweek cool down is the final nail in the coffin for the summer. Finally seeing a an overnight 30s coming up at the farm in Stuart later this week. Right at .40" this weekend with a lot of drizzle on top of that. One more round would be a huge help with the lawn seeding. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
