Is there a source for this All time?

If you mean how does it stack up against other cyclones...Katrina was 127 TJ and Wilma was 17 TJ according to this calculator. Helene is basically top tier.

I assume that is at the Airport which is south of town. Asheville general has lower totals then surrounding areas do to mountains shadowing from multiple directions. We bought property to build on in the future about an hour south of there very close the the SC line and Blue Ridge Escarpment. Totals there can usually be double to triple that of Asheville. Saw a CoCoRaHS report posted earlier today of ~12” near Connesstee Falls which is about 10 minutes from our property.

Yes, that's at the Airport. I saw the 12.29" figure for Conesstee Falls as of late this morning.

This is a NOAA plane, so unless there's mechanical issues, I would guess they're collecting important RI data.

Yeah with teal enroute and being the low pressure sample earlier, I'd guess the same thing. 

 

But I really hope it's not mechanical
