Chinook Posted July 20, 2020 Share Posted July 20, 2020 Elizabeth City, NC is at 98/78/116 right now, and Edenton NC is at 112 heat index. I don't ever think I've heard of an East Coast heat index over 116. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
magpiemaniac Posted July 20, 2020 Share Posted July 20, 2020 A month ago (mid-June), I had an afternoon high of 59. It’s currently 93. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Earlier today I was at 96/80 for a HI at 116. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cbmclean Posted July 20, 2020 Share Posted July 20, 2020 Nice line of storms starting to erupt from SW to NE along the I-95 corridor. Should be plenty of instability. Hope they reach me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fantom X Posted July 21, 2020 Share Posted July 21, 2020 In Myrtle .Beach today. Amazing how the sea breeze keeps the sun blaring here all day by pushing the clouds inland. Went into the Ocean. Water is like bath water. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
calculus1 Posted July 21, 2020 Share Posted July 21, 2020 Pretty rainy the past couple of days here in Hickory, and the rain chances remain fairly high for the remainder of the week. I received over half an inch of rainfall on Sunday and over 1.5 inches on Monday IMBY. Rain chances from NWS GSP for my area are 70% or greater for three out of the next four days. The humidity is high...Sent from my moto e5 supra using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There have been 16 high minimum records set in July at ORF just since 2000 and another 3 were set in 1999. There’s no global warming though.

It’s brutal outside Most of the barn work is done in the early morning, the horses and myself are sweating just standing in the shade. Not the first drop of rain or an outflow boundary to cool things off either Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

calculus1 Posted July 21, 2020 Share Posted July 21, 2020 Another potent tropical downpour this afternoon. Just shy of another half inch in just 20 minutes or so.

NorthHillsWx Posted July 22, 2020 Share Posted July 22, 2020 I forgot what rain was here. We have dipped, ducked, and dodged every meaningful storm or shower over the last week.

kvegas-wx Posted July 23, 2020 Share Posted July 23, 2020 Wow, 2 days in a row with thunderstorms like the good old days. Huge, crackling lightning, brutal winds and torrential rains. Good stuff.....except the part about the massive tree damage, blocked roads and I still have no idea where my two deck umbrellas are. May need to fly the drone to find them!

gman Posted July 24, 2020 Share Posted July 24, 2020 Three days ago Chris Justice on WYFF talked about the possiblity of strong storms coming in around 1:00 on Friday, saying he thought the chances were at about 80%. Well, he was spot on. It's been raining for about 1 1/2 hours at my house. So far, we've gotten 1.45" and it's still coming down. I understand it's flooding in parts of Taylors. Temp down to 71.
