BooneWX Posted August 19, 2020 Share Posted August 19, 2020 On the bright side... with the near daily rain, I can’t recall a time where my grass has ever looked so good in August. It’s growing like it’s late April. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wncsnow Posted August 19, 2020 Share Posted August 19, 2020 Had summer thunderstorm number 100 today with .72 in the gauge (6.8 for the month). Think we can get to 10 inches for the month, maybe a lot more with tropical trouble 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Met1985 Posted August 20, 2020 Author Share Posted August 20, 2020 Thanks for the vote of confidence fellas. I was actually thinking of delaying the Fall/Winter thread until the first of October. Last September was horrible. So I was thinking lets get the thread up and running when we can actually track some cooler/colder weather. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

calculus1 Posted August 22, 2020 Share Posted August 22, 2020 Another 0.91 inch of rain today. Maybe more tonight? Unsure. Up to 15.53 inches for the month of August. Just need 4.5 inches more over the next ten days to make it to 20. That's doable. Right? Tropical storms in the mix for next week...

wncsnow Posted August 22, 2020 Share Posted August 22, 2020 Y'all are both beating me up here closer to the Blue Ridge we have 8.5. That's one reason the water levels aren't higher on the Catawba, Broad, and others. The mountains have had less rainfall than the foothills and western piedmont. Water levels still high though 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
