We picked up 0.21” from that rotting line last night so we were not blanked. Happy for areas south and east of here where the severe drought area got drenched. Hopefully the upcoming week extinguishes the drought for the region 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

olafminesaw Posted July 19 Share Posted July 19 Was woken last night by heavy rain. Nearest rain gauge is picked up .74 in 40 minutes. Not a single 90 degree day on the 7 day forecast! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yotaman Posted July 19 Author Share Posted July 19 Ended up with 1.26" from 8:30pm to just after midnight. That puts us right at 6.00" for the month with rain in the forecast for the next 7 days. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GaWx Posted July 19 Share Posted July 19 I’ve been receiving mainly moderate rain from several thunderstorms over the last ~90 minutes. The CTG lightning is currently rather frequent with it causing a power blink a few minutes ago. No wind to speak of. Typical summer storms.

yotaman Posted July 20 Author Share Posted July 20 Picked up another .81" this afternoon with more storms forming to my southwest and heading my way. Edit: Just picked up another .96" giving me 1.86" for the day and 7.77" for the month. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jburns Posted July 20 Share Posted July 20 My total June rain was 0.14”. By far the driest month in the my 25 years at this location. For July only 0.74”. To say it is dry here is quite an understatement. Interestingly, this week I have been under 3 areal flood watches, one flood warning and one severe thunderstorm warning. There has been heavy rain slightly to my west, east, north and south. By slightly I mean the red echos on Radar Scope touched the outside of the blue ring that shows your location several times during the course of the week.. One plus though. I last mowed my yard on June 10. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GaWx Posted July 21 Share Posted July 21 For 2nd evening in a row and over last hour, my area is getting good rainfall from a series of thunderstorms.

We need a lot more but it is enough to activate my weed lawn so a mowing I will soon be. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I last mowed my yard on June 10. I thought wife and I had it bad here just north of you north of Kville. We're at 1.24 for the day, 2.46 for the week (basically yesterday and today), and 3.46 for the month. We were blessed with 2.52 for June. Seems like a lot compared to you in Archdale, but our grass is still brown and crunchy and our four year old dogwoods we planted in the sun by the drive are highly stressed to the point we may lose one.

NorthHillsWx Posted July 21 Share Posted July 21 Sounds like most everyone has gotten into the good stuff at least once this month. At over 5” after picking up just 0.46” last month my yard has gone from not having needed mowing since mid May to mowed twice this week. Better yet, the farm in Franklin county has exceeded 8” this month and the corn, soybeans, and food plots look like we will have made it through the drought with minimal loss. Checked the corn today and it’s 7-8’ and growing fast 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yotaman Posted July 21 Author Share Posted July 21 Picked up another 1.04" early this morning. That puts me at 8.97" for the month and a 60 to 80% chance of rain every day this week, I have a very good chance at hitting 10" for the month. Amazing watching my grass go from brown and crunchy to green and thick in less than 2 weeks. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

marsman Posted July 21 Share Posted July 21 Mowed for the first time in 3+ weeks yesterday. .83" over the past three days. Nothing yet so far today. Surprising 5.95" for the month to date, nearly half of that coming from July 6th. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
