buckeyefan1 Posted September 25 Share Posted September 25 1.40 last night and that’s the first rain I’ve had in weeks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GaWx Posted September 25 Author Share Posted September 25 I had a heavy batch of showers that came NW off the ocean here the last hour, the heaviest in at least a couple of weeks. The only other significant rain I’ve had this month was 1.5” during 9/5-8. So, since Aug 20th the only significant rains have been today’s and the rain of 9/5-8. I’ll get the measurement later. This was unexpected as there earlier had been no chance of rain and the models didn’t have it. This is important because I finally had a Storm Shield garage door rubber threshold placed yesterday afternoon by company #2 after waiting for several weeks for company #1 to install it to try to prevent future flooding during heavy rain events after what Debby did last month. It requires 48 hours of dry prior to install so the adhesive would be effective. The appointment had been for this afternoon, but fortunately on Mon I was able to move it up to yesterday. Had I not done that, they wouldn’t have been able to install it today in advance of Helene. Whew! It would have been better to not have any rain today to give more time for the adhesive to set in better. But the rain started 19 hours after install. So, hopefully that was enough time. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd think that would be enough time especially with the heat down there but just in case I wouldn't lift the door up at all until after all this is settled if you can help it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GaWx Posted September 25 Author Share Posted September 25 A 2nd batch of heavy showers moving NW off the ocean just came through. There may be a 3rd batch later. This area seems to be on a train track for showers today. None of this has been forecasted earlier by NWS/models. Edit: I ended up with ~2”, none of which had been forecasted by models and the NWS had no mentioned pop til a few hours before. And it turned out I had a little water coming in to my garage on the side that had the most during Debby as well as from the thunderstorm 8/20.

marsman Posted September 25 Share Posted September 25 1.58" overnight. Ground is saturated, seeing seepage onto roads and parking lots everywhere. Won't take much to bring trees down if we get any significant winds in the area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GaWx Posted September 26 Author Share Posted September 26 I had some rain last night though only ~0.25”. But late this morning I got nearly 2” within just an hour! It stopped for now. That brings me to ~4” since yesterday. My street flooded. Hoping not too much more will fall the next 24 hours, including from the more direct effects of Helene.

olafminesaw Posted October 1 Share Posted October 1 Thankful for the more reasonable rainfall totals here in the Triad in September. However, we still managed to smash the record for most number of 7"+ months in a year at 5 (Jan, may, Jul, Aug, Sep), with the previous record being 3 (5 instances). We are currently ahead of our 2018 record for rainfall and have a very good chance at a top 3 rainfall year yet again (all of the top three would be set in the last 7 years) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GaWx Posted October 1 Author Share Posted October 1 I ended up with ~6.75” of rainfall this month, with ~5.25” of that just before and during Helene (9/25-7). The other 1.5” fell Sep 5-8, which at the time was the first measurable rainfall since Aug 20th. Highest temperature inside this month has been ~83 with high RH and calm winds due to the still ongoing power outage caused by Helene. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cbmclean Posted October 1 Share Posted October 1 Made a valiant run at 11" but didn't quite make it. Ended with 10.77". Two out of the last three months over 10". It's been soupy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
