CoolHandMike Posted July 28, 2022 Share Posted July 28, 2022 Looks like we're finally in the firing line for one of these storms. There's still time for it to fizzle out but it actually looks like the convection is picking up again after a brief lull. Made it to 91.9 today.

CoolHandMike Posted July 28, 2022 Share Posted July 28, 2022 And as I typed that, I could see the wall of rain approaching from my front door camera. Now it's all gone, yet there are yellow returns supposedly currently above us with reds approaching. Surely this can be virga, it's like 76% humidity! Like what is even going on with this weather anymore My house is being micro-dry-slotted. Edit: Spoke too soon. Down-poured as soon as the reds got to us, finally. Looks like .4" all said and done. Sun's out again, we're at 1.1" for the day. Not bad. Just really weird how it played out. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
