July Surprise!

Regardless how active it is this coming week I'll get one day maybe with measurable rain and it wont be much. Thats how it is and that's how its always been. I've learned to accept it because after years and years its clearly not changing. But I'll complain relentlessly though. How I screwed today up though even baffles me. You could go three from me in any direction and they had good rains. I had a few drops to wet the concrete and that was it.


Dude, that sucks. I legit feel bad for you. You're definitely not alone. I have had more rain here in the last two days than I have for two months. I gave up on Friday and managed to have the best storms twice, in a row. Don't lose hope. You will get yours.
 
Wonder if we can get another multicellular cluster off the mountains tomorrow given the large cape/uncapped environment and once again high DCAPE that aids in outflow propagating SE and aids in a damaging wind threat
 

Anyone think I'm complaining just to complain and actually get more rain than I say? Check out this radar loop I found on someone's Twitter. My house is right in the center of Boiling Springs. Yesterday broke what spirit I had left. Its almost like mother nature is consciously screwing with me!

Dude, that's a ball buster for sure.

---- move Mother Nature ..
 
Itll be interesting to see if we can roll some clusters east out of the mountains today then fwd propagate on the outflows maybe this far east. Storms should have a little NW to SE movement today
 
One difference vs yesterday is that 500mb temps are a tad bit cooler and hrrr shows some better mid level LRs later, may aid in a hail threat and taller storms, hrrr shows crazy cape but I think most areas will stay around 4500 16EFB441-016F-4377-80D7-A8A4F750D138.png6D885BA0-526D-43D3-B9F5-F48A69EDB8CF.png3185C9EC-B801-46A2-97F6-7CC2B516660A.pngEE3E8F7E-7944-4CDB-91B0-D93A41675EDE.jpeg
 
Today doesn't look that dissimilar to yesterday. Once a few storms pop and outflows start wandering around the radar should light up some between 2-7.
Hrrrrrrrrrrr and Nammit not looking all that impressive. Hopefully we get that 10,000 CAPE showing up later.

Must be your location, just south of the mountains? Idk. Just speculating.

Yeah I mean what probably happens is storms form on the mountains then they collapse, outflows move East and they take time to develop, and when they do get going they get going to his East, so it makes sense he gets skipped a lot

Kind of like our snows! Seriously, they do good in the mountains, downslope over us, redevelopment just to our East

I've thought that a lot and had convinced myself the mtns caused it. But that doesn't explain why Inman west of I26 and Chesnee to my east seem to do well. Spartanburg south makes perfect sense though. But Greenville County is downwind of the highest peaks with a nw flow and doesn't seem to have any pronounced dry spots like this. It almost seems like horrible luck but it happens every year, regardless of how wet or dry the se is in general I get about the same amount of rain. So it has to be something!
