Pattern Dry July 2024

Finally. Unfortunately looks like the house lost power so I won’t have an accurate total. Last report was 3.53”/hr.

RDU hit 100 at 3 PM but this time it doesn’t appear to have been far out of line with nearby areas. It may have peaked at or just above 100. What are other RDU area posters’ highs to this point?

96.3 but I was on the non mixed more clouds side of the piedmont trough
 
For the 2nd straight afternoon I was just close enough to a storm for my temp to drop but the dewpoint to spike. I went from 97 down to 88 but the dewpoint jumped from 73 to 79, now I’m back up to 94 but the dewpoint is still 78… just disgusting

Same down here. The area SE of Fayettville that 13 inches 2 weeks ago is getting it again. Tons of lightning showing up. Only benefit to me was the anvil blocking the sun.

I feel your pain too..
 
LOL. This one will definitely dislodge any PV directly towards us, not other side of the globe. Why,because its the dead of summer and not winter.

Thick clouds here as we get ready to approach high noon. Not sure if its debri clouds from out west last night or sign some may luck up in a few hours. Lee side trough development
 
It looks like RDU’s highest today may end up “only” at 97 (high through 4:30PM) though it could sneak up to 98. Comparing to FAY and Winston, that’s not out of line as they have been similar today.

Maybe it's only hotter at RDU when the soil is bone dry.

This wet pattern we were supposed to go into is slowly slipping away. We have gone from 4+ inches to under 2 now on the GFS over much of upstate SC. We probably will not cool off as much as expected either.

You should have expected that. Cut the wet periods in half, when you see forecast highs in the low 80s, add 7 degrees, extend heat waves by 3 days, rinse and repeat.

Why would you put any faith in the GFS, whether one run or a a few. I have heard it called the gonna f,n suck model for so long now. I too get drawn in to the runs where it lays down a good amount of rain but then get put back to reality the next run.
