Pattern Ablazing August

Hope this week brings wide coverage opportunities. We simply dont score with the afternoon/evening variety summertime storms.
 
Clouds here in concord are so flat and high based and ugly compared to the meaty and juicy cumulus clouds back to the SE
 
Been getting frequent cracks of thunder for about the past 10 minutes and the skies have darkened, but the storms have been literally forming and moving in every which direction but mine (just a few miles away).

We'll see how this plays out.

(and yes, I did see the hail core that dumped over DFW, blah!!!)
 
Once again nothing here when under a watch. Not even a clap of thunder or a drop of rain.

This. Higher terrain based storms get killed on downslope just west of here and don’t regenerate until hitting the coastal plain trough in SE Wake and Johnston County.

Tuesday has some potential for a widespread steady heavy rain event ?
GFS looks good for y’all! My Shetleyness continues!?

Not sure how it happened, but DFW made to 100*F today.

That makes it the 6th 100*F+ day for the year.
 
Got 2.37" from the storms last night. Peak gusts of 36.5mph. Lots of lightning.

So the official reporting station at PGV is showing a surplus of +13.34 year to date. That station missed a lot of the heavier totals in southern part of the county last week. Now they are calling for "several inches" this week and more next weekend. We are only about 2 inches off the pace to tie the wettest year to date.

I know @WeatherNC is showing a bit more than the airport and would be well ahead of the wettest year on record. This is with the meat of hurricane season still approaching.
 
MHX going with up to 10 inches along the coast with locally higher amounts. I'm in the general 3-6 shade.......if my aging eyes see those numbers correctly.
