Pattern August Rush

The big wet is turning into the big nothing here. Maybe .25 here since Sunday.
CLT can and has gotten big thunderstorms within a 40 mile radius every day for the last 2 weeks
 
No storms or rain for me today, and doesn't look like there will be any tonight. I know the mets have to cover their bases, but this talk of widespread storms and rain last week and this week have really busted. It has been very scattered and isolated, just like it always is here with summer storms.
 
Tornado radar indicated, getting a little to close to me now!
 
2.35" of rain here today.... I landed from Cali at 650AM this morning and its been raining ever since. Looks like I have got about 3.5-4" or so here at the house with this event thus far from quickly looking at my weather station records. Over the rain... can't wait to get back out to cali for good here soon! lol!
 
Big time lightning right now. Getting loud. Strong storm to my southwest moving this way. Trying to fall apart on radar so hopefully that’s an indicator that our atmosphere is stable enough to handle this one..hunker down

Edit: Severe T-Storm Warning. Heavy rain. Bigly lightning. People just east of Hwy14 are getting walloped right now

2.60” yesterday, light drizzle now.

Thanks for reporting up there, the radar was steadily full up that way yesterday. How have you temps been this summer so far?
 
Another Flash Flood Warning. 2cnd one in past 18hrs. Gone from D1 drought to an onslaught this week. From my area back to the west just keep getting trained. Got a perfect feed today setup off the GOM and Atlantic.
 
Benn raining since I woke up today. Hopefully the rain will leave us starting this weekend.
I hope so too. The sun is supposed to come out by Saturday but I'm hoping it does tomorrow as well. Mowing wet grass is no fun lol.
 
:mad:Yeah, big wet is a big joke! GA gets lit up everyday and then it dies out as it moves into , then line blows up around CLT and hammers them, rinse and repeat! The big wet is almost over, have had a flood watch since Monday, and picked up .56 total!:mad:

Not trying to argue with you Brick but, while there are certainly pockets of little to no rain this map is not typical of summers around here. There is fairly widespread 2" plus amounts across the state

But not 3 to 6 widespread amounts like the models showed. And I might not get a drop of rain today with a 90% chance in the forecast. Just seems there has been all this talk of rain and it has not been very widespread for the whole state like it has been forecasted.

If you go back 14 days the 3-6" is fairly wide spread across the state.... again I'm not arguing with you but then again maybe I am lol, but to say it has been "scattered and isolated, just like it always is here with summer storms" just isn't completely accurate.
 
Definitely not a normal summer pattern with only widely scattered afternoon/evening storms.

I sense sarcasm....
Last 14 days (basically last 2 weeks of July), if this is normal for the SE I apologize and will come out from under my rock

I was agreeing with you and not being sarcastic.

Yeah lighting up good but I think that cold pool
to the south is going to shut the storms down here.
