Nice little thunderstorm outbreak south of me.

I saw you got bullseyed by that first little pulse. It was so tiny, it was sunny here. Lots of lightning with this big mass. Tho, I didn't see hail here, and that's one thing I'm glad I missed out on...

Yeah, I’m living near East Forsyth HS for a month while our home is repaired after a leak in our home. It was wild over here for sure.

Well I guess Shetley was right. At least for the upstate. Nothing at all! And today was supposed to be active according to GSP. Smh

Maybe we'll have an outbreak of wedges all winter long too.

For some of us this tranlsates into "an outbreak of wedgies" because mother nature bullies us relentlessly with suckage.

These storms over Statesville are crazy. I think we’ve been in the thick of it for 2 hours and it hasn’t moved! It’s like a pivot

Epic storms here today, lightning struck real close to me multiple times! Rivers are overflowing out here .

Dang it! Why so Fayetteville can be 75 with a dew of 62 with partly cloudy skies while its 44 and dumping cold rain ( not kidding this is what happens ) here.

Yeah I was trying to capture a strike next to the rain shaft but it didn't happen.

I've been playing around with some radar data in Python, here are the storms as we have Flash flood watches out of the Triad using level III radar.

Darn! The CTG lightning frequency on that storm had to have been the highest I have seen this summer !

It was definitely impressive, including in the updraft region where it was rain-free. I had a couple of strikes hit real close.
