I barely got wet. 0.12”, no thunder, no wind. I have to quit predicting weather. I am currently in that clear spot just behind the main storm. Unreal. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yotaman Posted August 1, 2021 Author Share Posted August 1, 2021 We got slammed. Best thunderstorm we have had all year. 2.11" so far. Rain has let up for now but still lots of thunder. Had about a half dozen very close lightning strikes. What a way to start the new month. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its crazy how things just seem so to have dried up as it gets close to the Triangle from the West Northwest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Been raining all afternoon today and it's been heavy at times. Currently up to 1.22" for the day. Let my husky out front so he could do his thing and the old fart decided to take off, had to chase after him in slip-ons splashing thru the water. Caught him but not after both of us getting soaked.

Currently 69.1, almost chilly out with the rain! What was the record cold high for RDU? Finished with 0.21” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Avdave Posted August 3, 2021 Share Posted August 3, 2021 This is going to be a much less event than when they first started forecasting it. Picked up .09" today. Kind of disappointed. WAs looking forward to a steady rainy type of day today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yotaman Posted August 4, 2021 Author Share Posted August 4, 2021 Had a high of 80 before the rains came. So far we have picked up 1.66" today. 5.14 is our three day total so far. Currently it is 70/69. Took the pups out for a walk between the rain showers and it actually felt very pleasant. Wind even felt a bit cool coming in from the northeast.

Wow Yes we have and also passed what we had for the entire month of July. By the way, our high was 74 today. Currently it is 72/71. Wish it could stay like this for the next 7 days at least. If it hadn't been so wet and drizzly, I would have been outside all day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
