I think it's about to happen. That storm in Aiken County did begin to rain out some, but it's rejuvenated itself. "Should" end up being a nice hit.

Yeah, I saw that. CAE tends to more special weather statements than warnings. But we need those downbursts to create those outflows.
This is flat out disrespectful. I'm not living right.

Well dang it actually might not happen...looks like the energy is slowly transitioning to the northwest of me. That really sucks as we actually really need rain right now.
According to the GFS, it's going to be 102 in OKC when I am there, then 70 the next day when I'm in Flagstaff ?
Absolutely ridiculous
Looks like OFB collision may happen over CLT

Stationary storm of strong winds, quarter size hail, and at least an inch of rain here by Lake Bowen in Northern Spartanburg County.
Well I can tell you this storm over southern Union County means business. Easily had a 50 mph wind gust at the start and now it’s absolutely pounding rain now. Already a half in inch in about 10 minutes

Storms all around the past three days with some close lightning strikes but only a few sprinkles of rain, not complaining though, going on multiple years of above average rain and currently 77F imby
I can't tell if it's coming for me in Indian Trail, it's hardly moving.
98 degrees. No storms around here.
It’s about time @RainlessSnowless & Grumpy 
Yes it is! Its a nice steady rain! The storm is off to the north but I should rack up a nice soaking for the grass!
Honestly it really looks more like it expanded north towards me rather than moving at first. We could see lightning flashing well out ahead too. Whoever gets under where the OFB boundary from this collides with the one from the NW is gonna get absolutely nailed.

Ah there's nothing more than I love but to have a storm rain out that was knocking on my door and have the energy move to my northwest. Especially love it when you can hear the thunder as well.
I don't think it's going to be me. Lots of wind but no rain and very little thunder. I guess we shall see, but my hopes are diminishing. Those cold pools of reduced CAPE are very close to me.

Towering CU everywhere to my NW/W/SW, wonder what’s going to happen when this collision occurs 
The guys to my north in Lake Bowen and Fingerville have to be measuring rain in inches. The storm has been parked there for an hour.

Only storm in entirety of wake county and until you get towards Charlotte is just north of me building this way it seems ! Nice . @SD please ban @Myfrotho704_ and @ryan1234 . Thank you.
Whatcha think @Myfrotho704_ I'm near Lake Park in IT. Think these will stay south, or will I get lucky. As I said, those cold pools are close, but the skies are darkening up real quick.
Developing shelf cloud to my south
May get development on top of you, although the ofb has advanced wayyy to your north
It's pretty dark over me right now. Idk, this could go either way. Still thundering, but not really raining, yet. Winds have calmed a bit.
Sick looking shelf to my SW

Interesting fact I came across on this old paper talking about piedmont troughs in N.C., something in the ballpark of about 2/3rds of outflow boundary collisions result in the generation of new thunderstorms in the summertime, and they usually lag about 15-30 mins after the collision has taken place
