Oh sure now we get this pattern
I just hope when this pattern flips back ~4/25-5/15 ish we go cool wet not NW flow cool and dry
I just run them RPM’s above 5k and she’ll usually blow mild. I can live with mild
4/60!
Smoke em if you got em. Y’all wanted action. Here it is 
More this. Less that 
Not gonna lie if this death ridge rolls poleward in a few weeks we may get some crazy seesaw action to close out April. Whiplash weather
Just like living in the South! You either have cold air and limited moisture, or warm air and 3” of rain in a day! Sucks to be here! Now we have 5 hot months to get through !
I think the cold is still on the wrong side of the planet!?? Didn’t Antarctica hit like -110 degrees last week or something?? Waiting on the slosh!
Yeah, that shocked me! Think we blew the forecast low by like 4-6 degrees there! And we clock a later than average last freeze despite a general torchy start to spring!

That's gonna get a whole lot worse if the gfs is right with its precip forecast. Pretty pathetic for the entire SE and will accelerate this drought quickly.
There's already been several small woods fires in SE North Carolina.
36 and some scattered frost, maybe this was the last one for a long time

Oven. Looks like worsening drought
Drought will be over and in reverse at warp spedd in 6 months. Till then have a garden hose handy this growing season
wouldn't be surprised to see whiplash that's essentially what last spring/summer were like in richmond
40 this morning, 70 now. 90 on Wednesday

Oh ok
This is the very first day of even a rain chance... Much less what everyone has freaked out about

WRAL is giving the Triangle a 30% shot at a thunderstorm tomorrow. I've got fingers crossed that I might be one of the lucky ones who gets some rain. Outside of that, welcome to the Sahara for the next ten days at least.

Something along the lines of what happened in 2002-2003. Much of 2002 was very dry then turning very wet in September and well on into 2003. Hopefully the change comes earlier this time.

This -NAO showing up late month probably has legs tbh. I’d bet the transition having some boundary esque severe wx setup as cyclonic flow builds as the trof under the block develops 
Just drove over Lake Hartwell otw back from Atlanta and she’s way down
fingers and toes crossed

We would be in business if this was about 3-400 miles farther west. This would also probably work here too if it could close off. We need something like what we got in May 1992. If that could be repeated our drought would take a big hit.

Radar showing sea breeze type returns and it got kind windy and stormy looking here in the last hr. First time this season I noticed it. Really noticeable on ILM radar less so on MHX.
i spy something other than hot
Warm?
How long has it been since there wasn't a massive sub tropical ridge somewhere across the conus? Maybe some time in November? 
Can’t remember many 84/40 days in mid-April

So far the drought hasn't slowed down my grass. Goodness; if we're going to have a major drought at least give me a break on having to mow.
Lol gfs
We are probably going to take a shot at a decent severe event across the region 4/26-30.

Mid 80s all week with 90 on Saturday. See some beach days in my future
Due to the coastal geography of Long Bay (SC) and Onslow Bay (NC) we get some incredibly strong seabreeze boundaries pretty much every day from mid-late April through about the first week of August. Once the shelf waters warm up enough they reduce quite a bit. I'm talking 20 mph or more sustained as it roars inland past I-95. The seabreeze effect isn't anywhere near as strong further up in NC and further south into the lowcountry of SC and GA.
A neat thing is due to the shape of the coast there's a convergence zone right around Bolivia, NC where the boundaries collide. That area is almost guaranteed a seabreeze generated storm during the summer.
