NorthHillsWx Posted May 20 Share Posted May 20 Picked up 0.12” last evening 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
olafminesaw Posted May 20 Share Posted May 20 Most of the western Piedmont had now received 200-400% of the average rainfall month to date. GSO is now at 8.27", only needing 2.61" to surpass the all time May record set in 1905. The 6z GEFS has 2.3" through the end of the month, so very possible!

GaWx Posted May 20 Author Share Posted May 20 23 hours ago, GaWx said: Strong thunderstorms approaching my area. Edit: Now severe warned. Though severe warned for potential 60 mph wind gusts and 1” hail, I fortunately never saw anything close to that unlike the 4 hour power outage causing prior severe warned storm of 10 days prior (5/9). Also the CTG lightning wasn’t bad. But the rain was very heavy for ~30 minutes producing the typical localized street flooding. Rain fell for ~2 hours total due to followup convection. I received a total of ~1.25” of beneficial rain. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yotaman Posted May 20 Share Posted May 20 Another cool morning with a low of 58, wind chill down in the 40's. High was a beautiful 76. Looks like tomorrow will be our last morning into the 50's for a while. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't have data to back it up, but I feel like May is one of our more feast or famine months, not quite in daily storm potential season, but any synoptic systems that we get could drop a bunch over a fairly wide area. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yotaman Posted May 22 Share Posted May 22 Surprisingly we got into the 50's again this morning. Hit 59 for our low. High was a warm 87. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Definitely feel that way. Last week areas in Durham county (one county over) picked up 4-5” and we didn’t even get one quarter on an inch from the entire two day event 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
