Yep that a decent shot of rain, of course it came over the house while I was trying to dig up a fence post and work on a raised bed lol. Blueberries go in the ground tomorrow if the farm store has how many I want to buy. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Met1985 Posted May 15, 2023 Share Posted May 15, 2023 Looks like tomorrow and tomorrow night we could get a decent amount and maybe some severe storms rolling through. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hunter has a update he pushed about it earlier. The STP values are rather impressive. Sent from my SM-S908U using Tapatalk 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tyler Penland Posted May 16, 2023 Author Share Posted May 16, 2023 Definitely feels unstable out there today.

wncsnow Posted May 16, 2023 Share Posted May 16, 2023 Southern McDowell got hit pretty hard. Quite a few power outages. We got fringed but still picked up .43 in 30 minutes. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Met1985 Posted May 17, 2023 Share Posted May 17, 2023 Ended up getting over an inch of rainfall from all the storms last night. The storms briefly knocked the power out and have knocked the internet out all night and so far all morning. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Met1985 Posted May 18, 2023 Share Posted May 18, 2023 Not a lot of movement today in temps. Only reaches 58 today with the low clouds. This is a rarity for this time of the year. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is a rarity for this time of the year. So far this pattern has reminded me of the spring and summer of 2013. A lot of cloudy gray rainy wedged in days that summer that kept it cooler that year. We are well overdue for a below normal summer in the temperature department. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah and by the looks of it we are going to stay kind of cloudy and rainy with comfortable temps. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wncsnow Posted May 19, 2023 Share Posted May 19, 2023 Even though my location has done pretty well with rain, many other areas near the Blue Ridge have not and most models show no rain after tomorrow for a week at least. Water levels are still at or below average on the majority of streams. I'm still thinking summer will be mostly dry here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Met1985 Posted May 19, 2023 Share Posted May 19, 2023 I think we see micro areas see some dry conditions but that's pretty normal. I think the SE mountains are the winners the next few weeks with rainfall but we are seeing a lot of jumping around in the models which is just a mirror of this past winter.

Met1985 Posted May 22, 2023 Share Posted May 22, 2023 All of a sudden we see an increase in moisture over the next week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wncsnow Posted May 22, 2023 Share Posted May 22, 2023 Possibly. The models are all over the place. Most of them still have most of the moisture to the east, but pop up storms seem likely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
