NorthHillsWx Posted August 14, 2021 Share Posted August 14, 2021 Wow, this storm makes a lackluster storm season a little better for sure. Power went out a few times, likely lightning strikes. Felt like we were under attack from the heavens. Still going strong. Going to make a run at 2” here shortly 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Going to make a run at 2” here shortly It took forever to get here at 40/540. It was moving so slow in a WNW direction. We had the wind from the outflow boundary for a while and 2 trees snapped in the woods behind my house. Heard them go down while sitting on my porch enjoying the cooler temps. Rain finally got here and it wasnt like it was in Raleigh. It was a mediocre storm here but Ill take it Looks like 1.11" in the gauge and another batch near Apex is moving North up Toll 540 towards here. Man we needed this rain so bad. Grass is turning brown. Got to 99 today and now my current temp is the low for the day at 70* here now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
