Pattern May Flowers

Almost constant lightning here, heavy rain. This is the second round, nothing severe but a nice summer type storm.

Btw glad to be here and see a lot of familiar names :)
 
Nice surprise shower last night, wasn't much, but anything to lessen the pollen is welcome.
 
Up to a scorching 95 at KSAV at 3 PM, which is only 2 from the 97 record and about the hottest in the SE! This is with a NE wind, which tells me it should cool back down shortly.

Well, the clouds don't have dementia after all. They remembered how to rain here last night, even how to downpour, and thunder, and drip for hours. Most refreshing, and now Goofy has some kind of weird, funky dueling cut off scenario going on in the face of the death ridge, to give us days and days of rain. It feels like a dream, but I just pinched myself and it hurt :) T
 
First 90 of the year today at 91.5. Really like the pattern next week for rain some of the eps members showing big totals from days 4-10.

"at least my lows are still in the 60s" is not something I really like to say in mid May... I swear I might die if we have a weeks long string of 70s lows like we've had in several recent past Summers. Seems like those stretches are getting longer, more frequent. Maybe it's just UHI and Chattanooga's growing metro that's the issue.. ;)
 
Take the good with the bad , I guess! Temps may be in the low 80s after Monday, but so will the dewpoints! :eek::(
 
Yeah yuck

Record high at rdu today is 93 ..goodbye, think rdu makes a solid run at 95 today. Tomorrow's record is 94 a small increase in moisture might get us enough cu to hold just short

I’m glad things will cool off a bit after Monday. Hopefully any heat waves are short lived this summer and we have a cooler and unsettled pattern. With things in weak Niña to neutral status though it’s likely to be a very hot and dry summer...

You know for the first summer in a long while I think we have an opportunity to go slightly above normal temps and well above normal precip. I think the SE ends up in a weakness aloft with an Atlantic ridge pumping a southerly flow at the surface. Lots of daily storm chances.

Dobbins in Marietta reached 88F yesterday and 89F today. I need to get my thermometer on the north side of my house to get some accurate readings here at 1140'

That would be fine with me, I don’t mind the heat so long as there are storms to go with it. When things get into drought territory with endless heat for weeks and things dying, that’s the type of summer I dread. This week looks pretty storm and I wouldn’t be surprised if some places have 6-8” by this weekend.

Yeah areas of 6-8 look quite likely especially on the south to southeast facing slopes. There will be a secondary max along and just right of the low pressure track

Hey Webb, you was on top of things a year ago during hurricane season. What your thoughts of this year and your thoughts on rest of May and June possible homegrown systems before the season really begins? Or Larry can join in on this to.

It is still too early for me to have a strong feel but I'd like to know if that rather impressive warm subsurface in the equatorial Pacific is going to help get us El Niño by fall. If so, I'd be thinking less active than normal season. By the way, seasons when El Niño is oncoming actually often have an active start with homegrown fwiw. Then the mid and later parts of the season often become less active than normal. But do we actually have El Niño on the way or not? Any guesses or opinions? I think Webb is favoring it coming unlike what he thought last year.
