With lightning being so close we had to stop working for about an hour. Greetings, it is "awesome" to see a fellow SAV area poster as there aren't many of us on the various boards! In my area further south than you, there was a good soaking from the warned storm giving us nearly 1". That gets my total MTD to nearly 8", which is way higher than normal thanks largely to Elsa. KSAV, itself, has had much less at just over 4" MTD including today. But even that is slightly wetter than normal. There was nothing severe nor any closeby CTG lightning from today's storm at my location. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WinstonSalemArlington Posted July 19, 2021 Share Posted July 19, 2021 Water weary Greensboro hit yet again! Christian Morgan: cYet again, flooding is an issue. Greensboro has been pummeled over the last week with heavy rain from training storms. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NorthHillsWx Posted July 19, 2021 Share Posted July 19, 2021 Much more tame here in Raleigh. 0.23” overnight and this morning for a total of 0.30” since yesterday. This does bring our monthly total to 6.03” so this is the second straight month of at least 6” here 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
olafminesaw Posted July 19, 2021 Share Posted July 19, 2021 At GSO airport the total for the month has risen to 5.19", with 2.96" coming over the past three days. This puts us ahead of average by about 4" on the year, well on our way to yet another wetter than normal year. At this time in 2018 (the year of the all time rainfall record), Greensboro was actually slightly below normal rainfall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WinstonSalemArlington Posted July 19, 2021 Share Posted July 19, 2021 This is what Latham Park in @greensborocity looks like this morning. North Buffalo Creek had flooded the park after the heavy rain that Greensboro seen this morning. @WFMY @CMorganWX @TimBuckleyWX @EdMatthews2 https://t.co/0aeqf1sy5V 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Avdave Posted July 19, 2021 Share Posted July 19, 2021 After my last post last night, we got some decent rainfall. Picked up .43" yesterday evening/night 24 hr total has been .76" MTD: 6.35" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GaWx Posted July 19, 2021 Share Posted July 19, 2021 Another beneficial thunderstorm here early this afternoon with nice rains of at least 1/4". Near 8" for the MTD. We've got a decent shot at a 10"+ month here! We don't see those all that often unless there's a TC involved, which there was (Elsa). Further west in western Chatham county including the airport, there has been much less though still somewhat above normal of over 4" MTD. Edit: My total from that storm ended up near 0.45". There is thunder again and a 2nd storm appears on the doorstep. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
