Pattern Ablazing August

It looks like an explosion. I would think wildlife wouldn't move with the same pace in all directions. But who knows?

They do really big demo's to break new ground from time to time....

My guess is an explosion at the mine. Startled all the birds and they flew off in each direction.

This makes sense the bigger returns locally are birds etc.....but the ring itself is probably a shockwave, especially given the atmospheric conditions this morning.....

Yeah no doubt it originated at the mine. Here's an overview and it's clearly from the mine. There are big lakes there so the bug hatch idea that @SD said can't be ruled out. The pattern looks like shockwave to me. I've fished around that area my entire life and can't ever remember a demolition when inwas down there, not one that I heard anyways.

Looks like Brad p is going with the warmer side of guidance

It looks good based on what guidance is out there. The Euro and EPS are big on lowering dews and heating the I85 corridor while keeping the US1/95 corridors with higher dews and more average daytime highs. You can see the piedmont trough sharpening each afternoon on the Euro and as the week goes along it gets deeper and slightly farther east. Something to watch this week I've never paid enough attention to really see how the temp patterns play out when you really sharpen the piedmont trough and if it does heat the I85 corridor more than eastern areas

I’ll take those dews in a heart beat.
 
Got to 63 this morning....hi res models look rough tomorrow, ditches are still full from the other day, yard was still a little squishy etc.....hopefully we get through tomorrow with not much rain.
 
Decent training and a solid pivot point = some localized big time totals tomorrow .. HRRR has wanted it to be somewhere in central NC .. but we all know exact location won’t be known until we nowcast .. regardless someone is seeing a flash flood warning2843059E-0255-4D06-BCA5-ECDF2EC4995F.png

That precip max looks perfectly placed over Jordan lake and apex ... don’t tell @Avalanche
 
Dang Rah NWS going all in on tomorrow (this was from the morning update)

Rainfall totals for late tonight and Saturday will also likely need
a (possibly significant) upward adjustment with the afternoon
forecast package, with a narrow swath of 2-3" probable, locally
around 4", along and on the immediate cool side of the retreating
coastal front and frontal wave during that time.
 
2" radar estimates east of Chapel Hill near Jordan Lake already and its been pouring here too. Jordan Lake sink zone cancel.

And this is before all the rain coming tonight and tomorrow .. there will be flash flooding I believe for some areas in the next 24 hours
 
Heaviest totals missed the airport and official station again. This area of southern Pitt just southeast of my house has been getting crushed this summer. Pgv is a surplus of +15 and this area is several inches ahead of that. Just crazy how much rain we've been getting.

Someone is getting a flash flood that’s for sure … I can’t wait to see the radar blossom and hear the heavy rain falling outside my window and if we’re really lucky we can maybe stay in the 70s tomorrow.. i dont know about The whole severe threat I would assume a severe gusts will be very few and far between 3240116D-5A39-47E3-8E8E-F0AB4D8E028C.png
