Pattern June Gloom

Looks like I'll finish the month at 1.56 unless something magically happens that won't. I think that'll be 9 of the last 10 months with less than 2 inches. 13.6 YTD. Oof
It'll be 1.88 here, 15.27 YTD and a little over 34 going back to July 1 last yr. That's around 14" below normal for that 12 month stretch, but in reality worse than that since July last year was over 6.5". Haven't had a month like that since
 
Thunderstorms popped up along the Savannah River ~1-1.5 hours ago. They’re moving in a somewhat unusual SE direction and one is about to get going here. Some rain drops just started falling and I hear plenty of thunder.

Edit: It looks like I got ~0.2”.

I keep getting missed by these pop up storms and to be honest, it's beginning to be really irritating for me. This one looks pretty nasty on regular radar (maybe hail?), but I'm not too happy here as I drove through a bit of a mess.
 
We are somehow currently getting the benefit of rain cooled air even though any rain was probably held to less than 0.10". It's nice and I definitely doubt another mulligan is pulled out this week (low rain chances for a little bit).
 
GSO sitting at 3.71 for June

RDU sitting at 3.26 for June

Fay sitting at 2.20

Albemarle at 1.73

Sporadic hit and miss. Lot more on the miss side unfortunately. Know Falls Lake and Badin Lake are in terrible shape currently.

The Little Pee Dee and Lumber Rivers both can be crossed easily on foot at every bridge I've passed over recently. Water is maybe ankle deep where there's actually water. Both of those rivers originate in the Sandhills/Upper coastal plain.

Yea thing is even if you get a T storm complex to roll through your region and not just 1 or 2 localized backyards. Ground soaks it up, no runoff. We are months away without any Tropical influence of seeing Runoff Rain Complexes. So the above Ground watersheds rivers/Lakes will continue to drop drastically. Be September before it can be neutralized and perhaps start the long process of replenishing. As much as its gonna screw up winter wx. We are blessed a big el-nino is inbound / STJ firehose
