Really looking like we’re going into another extended dry period. Low of 45 this morning. I was surprised that I received (0.8”) close to what was modeled for rain over the weekend. I’ll take what I can get during this dry April. Looks like a little something is possible for this Friday. Morning low of 38.3. Today should be nice before this week’s heat sets in.

We have only had two rain events this month, the 10th and yesterday. Friday’s looks quite light. Finishing April under an inch of rain, we’re still below an inch here for the month, is a terrible way to go into the hot season! I think WRAL said Raleigh is 3.3” below average for the spring at this point. Pattern looks like any rain will be quick fropa variety and not soaking rain. Saw some yellow shades show up in drought monitor thus week into central nc. Definitely not the time you want to see that! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yotaman Posted April 26, 2021 Author Share Posted April 26, 2021 Low of 48 and high is our current temp of 75. 1.04" for the month so far. Hoping for a much wetter May but right now doesn't look like it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NorthHillsWx Posted April 29, 2021 Share Posted April 29, 2021 Had a brief shower early this morning but just a T of precip. Friday looks dry so we likely will end the month at 0.93” barring something changing. Strangely, looking at climate records, April is climatologically our driest month, averaging just 2.80” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
