Pattern July

Severe Marginal Risk out for Thursday north of i40 including Wilkes and Boone. Slight Risk further north. Watch out and when thunder roars go INDOORS
 
Hope the storms stay away from the Raleigh area tonight. I'm going to a concert at Walnut Creek.
 
After td Alberto, the rest of the summer was cool and nice, as I recall, and somewhere in there we had a blizzard, a precursor, I believe, so cut offs can be nice, as long as they don't put down 18 inches in 3 days. Anytime, now that I've seen Alberto, that I see a cut off tropical low in the area, I figure some biblical rains are upon us, or them, depending on where it wanders. Whatever, it will be interesting to see if it changes the local climate like Alberto did.
 
Started weakening as it came through but good rain and lightning.

Can you send some of that rain my direction? All I’m getting is lightning flashes outside. I would love to get in on some of the action. I haven’t even hit half an inch on the month yet.:mad:

Therea actually some coming up from the south, so be patient and it'll start eventually. Just checked again and now I'm at 2.25".
 
It took half the summer but finally a jackpot

Rain has ended here now. Final total from tonight’s storms is 1.68”. Overall I’m thrilled with tonight’s haul. Went from less then half an inch on the month to over 2 inches. Had quite a bit of thunder and lightning as well.
 
Fingers and toes crossed! Never heard of a PRE, but I want one over my house!!640A579F-F225-40B7-BA28-C177E32C5B1C.png
 
I did not see lastnight coming. It literally thundered for 8 hours. Not right on top thunder but that post storm stratiform sky lightning then new storms would move in amd restart the process.

That is awesome. I love nighttime thunderstorms. It's been a long time since I've seen a cluster like that.
 
July 12-16 marks the anniversary of the infamous midwestern heat wave of 1995 that killed a lot of people. Appleton, WI had a dp of 90 and a heat index close to 150 !

The main stalled line was about 10 miles south. They got 4 inches of rain while I got maybe 1.5 or a little more. The thunder just went on for hours and hours. Deep shaking thunder too. It was an impressive night.

First heard thunder at 8:45pm last night heard my last thunder sometime between 530 and 6am.
 
Pretty big instability numbers this afternoon but I think the best focus for convection may end up to my south.
