NorthHillsWx Posted April 14, 2023 Share Posted April 14, 2023 Heaviest rain rates this year with the showers that pushed through earlier. 1.18” in just over an hour, most of which fell in about 25 minutes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SouthWake33 Posted April 14, 2023 Share Posted April 14, 2023 Roughly quarter inch hail in Cary near Trader Joe’s Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NorthHillsWx Posted April 14, 2023 Share Posted April 14, 2023 That non-warned storm that just pushed through was worse than any severe-warned storm I can remember at my current house. Dropped an additional 0.56” of rain, dime-sized hail and a lot of it, and it’d say a few gusts 50+. Tons of lightning. Great storm daily total rain now up to 1.74” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eyewall Posted April 15, 2023 Share Posted April 15, 2023 This is one more from yesterday with the first wall cloud I saw near Apex at 3:47pm or so. You can make out the Shearon Harris cooling tower below it (it is actually probably quite a distance from the actual base of the cloud in this shot): 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

marsman Posted April 18, 2023 Share Posted April 18, 2023 Low of 46 this morning. Good chance I see 90 on my PWS Thursday, I'm usually 1-2 degrees above RDU. Then chance of 30's next week! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GaWx Posted April 18, 2023 Author Share Posted April 18, 2023 An extremely dry airmass over N FL: Per KJAX: FAIR SKIES AND A NEAR RECORD DRY AIR MASS FOR MID-APRIL REMAIN ENTRENCHED OVER OUR AREA, WITH OUR MORNING SOUNDING AT JACKSONVILLE ONLY REGISTERING 0.24 INCHES OF PWAT (RECORD FOR 12Z ON APRIL 18 IS 0.20 INCHES). This along with other great radiational cooling parameters allowed lows for a number of major stations to get all of the way down into the low 40s, including Hogtown and Jacksonville at 42. All of the way down in north-central FL at Brooksville it was down to 43. That's only 50 miles NNE of Tampa. Currently the dewpoint is a mere 28 at Ocala with only 17% RH!

GaWx Posted April 23, 2023 Author Share Posted April 23, 2023 This afternoon is near ideal here! The temperatures are near normal (highs near 80) but with 30s dewpoints, beautiful blue skies, and a gentle breeze. I could take this all year round. This month has had quite a few similar days. Tomorrow looks similar but with more clouds. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gman Posted April 26, 2023 Share Posted April 26, 2023 We got 0.55 inches of rain today. Some areas of Greenville County along and just south of I-85 got over an inch. No one had any measurable rain in the forecast as of late yesterday. None of the computer models showed measurable rain until a slight chance after 3:00. It starring raining here about 4:00 this morning. How could the short term forecast be that bad? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gtg947h Posted April 26, 2023 Share Posted April 26, 2023 We had a pretty good storm today with 1/4in hail (and apparently bigger at my son's school--he came home saying "it was raining ice cubes!" ) But just to the south/southwest they got some nasty hail, and I haven't seen that much purple and white on a radar in a long time, if ever. It got worse after this picture... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It got worse after this picture... Very little rain in this part of the area. The seabreeze held much of it back. I did hear some loud thunder. The hail just outside Savannah in Richmond Hill, GA, is some of the worst hail in the area in many years, if not decades: https://www.wsav.com/weather-news/hail-rains-down-in-portions-of-chatham-county/amp/ Holy hail! The Melbourne area got hit hard with large hail: https://www.clickorlando.com/weather/2023/04/26/snow-way-hail-covers-i-95-in-florida Hail to this extent and size is very rare in both of these areas. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
