Made it up to a blistering high of 66 degrees today under full sun on top of Beech Mtn. Hard to believe, but some color will start popping out up top a month from today
Went up to Linville yesterday. Absolutely spectacular day. Low 70s with low humidity.
 
Yesterday just about finished my grass off. I guess if I were to cut it right now, RIP. Still waiting for a good rain before I cut it again and at this rate, I may only cut it one more time this year.
I'm probably going to end up around $1000 in water bill for JJA. I hate my choices

Are you bermuda, centipede, zoyasa?

The crab grass that no one wants, usually falls off a cliff 1st week of Sept every summer over here. Get a string of sub 60 DP days and its usually Katie bar the door. The athletic fields are all bermuda and even with heavy irrigation are whitening up tail end sept

Centipede, it's been a tough year on it
 
This line of storms setup shop about 30 miles south of me last night and me and my son watched it for a long time. He posted 6 videos to YouTube. It was such a light show it made the news today.

That was the most electrical storm I’ve seen. It didn’t stop for even a second. Anyone boating off Oak Island had to be in total fear!
 
There are some aspects that look better tomorrow than they did last Friday, but, tomorrow is likely to have less coverage/movement. Still think today dunks on a few people with limited cell motion and efficienct rainers.

Oh and to add wouldn't be surprised to see a few hail reports tomorrow

Kickoff is 7pm-730pm statewide Friday night. Somehow about that time cells will fire off all over the place with lightening delays. Wait for it. probably only dump a measily tenth of an inch qpf
 
Had probably the best storm of the summer for my location yesterday evening. Ended up with 1.87” between 9-11pm

This storm was bigger than last Friday - whiteout conditions here, schit everywhere - what a mess, another big mess. We lost power at 10:30 last night and it was restored at 6AM this morning. Union Power said a half dozen power poles were snapped in half in the Lake Twitty neighborhoods off of Olive Branch road.

2.70" fell in one hour - on the zoom earth mapping product, the cell over Monroe was identified as extreme rain 2.72"/hr
