Pattern Dry July 2024

Getting heavy rain from a thunderstorm now. Due to a combo of potential heavy rain today with very heavy rains earlier this week and last weekend (5” IMBY), a flood watch was already in effect for today/tonight. But it’s already getting lighter.

There's a Flash Flood Warning in effect for Wake County. Looking at the radar, I believe that is more related to urban flooding in Raleigh than anything else. The rain started about ten minutes ago at my house near Lake Wheeler and is moderate in intensity now.
Imagine if we get a nice soaking tropical system . 10-20 inches of rain on top of this! This rain needs to slow down a bit

It kinda reminds me of how the summer of 1999 was… it started out very dry and then got much wetter during July and August and then Dennis and Floyd within a couple weeks of each other.

Everything to my North so far and it's gonna take some time to get this mass of showers to drop down into my area I believe
 
I got another 1.05 inches of rain yesterday. That puts me over four inches of rain for the week. This pattern is going to give way to some beautiful weather for this time of year this weekend and conditions are going to be close to normal for this time of year for the next five days after that.
 
The horrible drought continues in Metro Atlanta. Cobb and North Fulton are in a Severe Drought according to the latest Drought Monitor.
Technically only June was very dry, July has now been very wet for most. KPDK has had 7.6" of rain this month. KATL 8.84"

That was due to the June dry spell. It will adjust at the next issuance of the monitor. It lags real time observations by a good bit of time.
 
The really nice dews are currently north of Richmond. It'll take until around this time tomorrow to really drop them off locally but they may be in the upper 50s by evening. Enjoy it Sunday as we are back near 70 Monday afternoon
 
First frame was 2:42 last frame at 3:08 and my total jumps over an inch in 30 minutes. Some areas southeast of me are over 4.5 inches already.

already feels great outside, getting out to play golf
 
Does anyone know where to find the historical radar that you can go back as far as 30-60 days and see rainfall totals?
