We may finally get clipped SD
The thunder was loud, felt like it would build on top of us for a minute… but looks like it will pass to the south of New Hill.
0.00
Hang it in the ------- louvre

Can't wait to get to Sunday morning with 0.00 staring down another 2 weeks with low to 0 rain chances
Another day another Raleigh deluge 
I can't believe it made a beeline straight up here. I'll probably just get clipped as its still mostly S of MBY, but I still owe SD a beer or 12 for this week alone.Another day another Raleigh deluge
Jinxed it--swing and a miss. Beltline special.
1-3”+ in eastern Watauga co tonight.

It's actually advancing in this direction but appears to be losing some steam. Not sure it's gonna hold
LFG
Not even close lol
Its going to be close, line this up right an it's a huge number
Thicc
This was my thought about 7pm, I said no way I miss tomorrow but I guess its tonight insteadBout d*** time. Law of averages says you can’t miss every one of these.
1.02 a months worth of rain in a day!
Guess I'm the lone hold out now

It didnt feel like winning, lol
I'm still looking for one of those one inch or more rain totals for a day here near Lake Wheeler. I did get .29 inches yesterday which beats the trace I received the previous day. Saturday and Sunday look promising but I'm still playing the waiting game.
At least we are good on chances through saturday. Id favor up your way today and tomorrow
This typically ends with the heat being directed into the mid Atlantic/carolinas

Back to back 100 degree days in Wilmington
Heard a new term in the morning AFD "Corfidi." zero clue what it means. But I know what backbulding and training of cells means. fingers crossed.
With seasonably enhanced westerly flow in place over the southern
Mid-Atlantic, storm motions should be rather progressive to preclude
scattered flooding risk. However, if any trailing outflow is able to
lay out east-west across the forecast area, training and back
building storms will be possible as better deep layer moisture and
weak Corfidi vectors are in place to provide a locally enhanced
flooding risk. By Sun a mid-lvl low may stall around the TN Valley
and could bring diabatic precipitation atop a CAD boundary over the
western Piedmont and eastern slopes of the southern Appalachians,
bringing increased rainfall to our western counties. But confidence
in timing/location of this mid-lvl feature is low at this time.

Not sure what the record is for consecutive 100 degrees days at Wilmington but I wouldn't imagine it's many being so close to the coast. Going for number 3 today.
The ILM Airport will have
its potential 3rd consecutive day to observe 100+ degree max
temps.
EDIT: so if we hit 100 today it will be only the 4th time in history Wilmington has hit 100 on 3 consecutive days. The last time it happened was 2012

I see Raleigh is number one with six days reaching 100 degrees. Fayetteville is number two with five days of triple digit heat. Those numbers may get bigger next weekend with another impending heat wave on the way. With the rest of July, August and September to go, Raleigh might break the record of twelve 100 degree days for a year in 2026.
