GaWx Posted July 17, 2022 Share Posted July 17, 2022 My last 3 days (7/14-16) of rainfall: 0.03", none, none but heavy nighttime thunderstorms along and offshore the immediate coast moving northerly very early AM produced lots of rumbling thunder and frequent lightning in the eastern sky for several hours 10.73" is my total 7/1-16, one of the heaviest ever for the first half of July and ~triple the normal! Normal for the ENTIRE month is ~7". I'm at 17.73" since June 1st. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NorthHillsWx Posted July 17, 2022 Share Posted July 17, 2022 6.13” MTD with 2 weeks remaining. What a turnaround Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GaWx Posted July 18, 2022 Share Posted July 18, 2022 After getting no measurable rainfall the last 4 days (7/14-17), I just received a decent rain from a thunderstorm over the last hour or so. Before today's rain, I was already at a way wetter than normal 10.73" MTD. Edit: I got 1/2" today, which gets me to 11.23" MTD. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yotaman Posted July 18, 2022 Author Share Posted July 18, 2022 Picked up a total of .58" from multiple rainstorms today. That puts me at 10.37" for the month. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GaWx Posted July 20, 2022 Share Posted July 20, 2022 I got another storm today, this one at mid afternoon along with some followup steady light rain. It was about three hours worth. Todays amount was a modest 0.18". But even that amount matches the amount from one irrigation and it all soaked in. So, it is all appreciated. I'm now up to 11.41" mtd.

yotaman Posted July 20, 2022 Author Share Posted July 20, 2022 Had a high of 93 today. Had a good sized storm just miss us this afternoon but we were close enough to get the outflow from it. Dropped the temp from 91 to 76 and it stayed there the rest of the afternoon. I was able to get out and cut the grass in somewhat comfortable conditions for mid July.

NorthHillsWx Posted July 20, 2022 Share Posted July 20, 2022 We’re in the middle of about my least favorite weather pattern imaginable. Hot, humid, almost no storm chances, no relief on horizon.

LakeNormanStormin Posted July 22, 2022 Share Posted July 22, 2022 Big busted forecast down here by Lake Norman.

marsman Posted July 22, 2022 Share Posted July 22, 2022 0.08" of rain so far in July 2022, in the so-called Cary rain hole. High today of 100.2 IMBY. Lawn is dead, but meh. Underground watering for the garden is working great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
