Pattern May 2026

Parts of Johnston county have been the RDU metro jackpot winners of the last 96 hours overall with 1.5”-2”. Here’s the last 24 hours: only they got significant amounts in RDU metro

A band from Carrollton to Gainesville, which includes much of the N ATL metro, as well as to the N and NE of AHN centered on Madison county did quite well the last 24 hours. As the map shows, some other areas of N GA, including near Rome, also did well:

Aside: I got just a T the last 24 hours and am at only ~1.5” MTD with most of that falling 23 days ago!

I have .11 inches in the rain gauge just southeast of Lake Wheeler in Raleigh courtesy of a shower earlier this morning. That gives me a total of 1.04 inches since Thursday. I'm hoping the heavier rainfall will show a little love to those of us who live in the Eastern Piedmont and areas west.

We see who the winner is here, but damn Durham got the shaft.

Thanks for posting that. It shows how well much of N ATL metro did as well as much of E GA (not my area), NW 1/2 of SC, part of NC mtns and E Carolinas, portions of E TN, and some of N AL.

To add, the immediate RDU area had their best recent 24 hour period the 24 hours just before your map covers (7AM 5/21 to 7AM 5/22) with hardly any since as you showed:

Sunday, 5/24/26... Doppler Radar estimated anywhere from 3.5" to over 5" in Goose Creek. It spread out in intense cells over a 3 hour span. Yesterday's rainfall was greater than the combined rainfall from February, March, April up thru 5/23/26 here (nearly 120 days). (Radar loop I produced was too large. Had 4 separate cells. Including the main line)CODNEXLAB-NEXRAD-CLX-DSP-20260524-1856-24-100.gif
