Pattern Dry July 2024

1 inch of rain and still going thanks to that outflow boundary. I did not think it would be that strong and come this far south. This batch of storm will end up hitting almost all of upstate SC before they move out.
 
Going on 6 hours of rainfall and it’s still going. Haven’t checked the actual gauge yet but the digital says I am closing in on 2” of much needed rain. We’ve been luckier than most back this way with getting some thunderstorms coming off the mountains every now and again the last couple of weeks but getting a legit multi hour soaking like this is great.

This hobby is brutal. I finally got rain last night, but I stand by my earlier statement of "I hate summertime storms". For us weather folks, they'll break your heart in most cases.

Yeah. I've been watching these storms dance around for me 2 weeks. It's awesome when you get a good storm but it's painful when you desperately need the rain and they keep missing. We are on a watering ban so my yard needs every drop it can get.

So far it was 2 miles either side of me today. KLTX - Digital Storm Total Accum., 9_43 AM.png
 
Here’s something NOT different as of 3PM: RDU’s 94 is the warmest in the entire state. What a shocker:

KATL has been somewhat respectable, though the day isn't over yet.

I didn't realize such a large chunk of the southeast were under heat advisories again. You will notice one of the warmest regions not shaded, and I believe that the Central South Carolina office has a heat advisory standard that is 110F, higher then anywhere else.

Interesting that North Alabama is under a heat advisory but most of North Georgia isn’t.
 
I had an account here years ago but lost access to the old email. I wanted to show just how crazy the localized drought is where I live in Horry County amongst the wider dry summer. From my calibrated gauge in the city of Loris I have 4.61" for May, but .34" on 5/14 was the last measurable rain that month. June had 1.42" total with 1.07" coming on 6/28 which greened the grass up pretty good. Nothing measurable so far in July with only a few passing showers that didn't fully wet the road. It's honestly shocking to see this level of dryness when I can go 5 miles in any direction and there's been double the rainfall. The oaks and river birch trees are dropping leaves like crazy and quite a few maples in residential yards are yellow.
 
My own personal desert finally got squared up. 2.59” and still raining. Jonesville no more. We have a tradition where my wife complains about storms everywhere around us. As soon as she does that we get pounded. Constant lightning tonight and managed to loose power.

PGV hit 97 yesterday....
 
The weekend looks interesting and ILM is at least talking about it widespread soaking rain. I won’t believe it until it’s falling the way the last few months have been.
