May be?

GFS increased low level shear this run with 30-40kts of 500mb flow, starting to get in the range to support supercells but overall unidirectional flow tells me complex 5D8E9AEB-3B2D-4F5B-8BCB-6630F132C184.pngDEB50D0A-4C76-4B9F-8D62-84AB57ED494C.png2F24C436-7A13-4480-9478-BD5CAD53E9BB.png

Oh well, at least when the heat comes, we're all in this together. ?

And us southerners know how rare that is. I'm loving this weather. I don't mind heat plus humidity as long as we get some reprieves every now and then. Storms/MCS's and maybe a derecho or two followed by low humidity, with highs in the 80s every other week, would be perfect. Drought and dry boring weather is not acceptable here. If you are wishing for that, then go to California. ?
 
It’s worth noting that Tuesday and perhaps Wednesday if the gfs is correct, would feature a large hail threat given the fact were basically below a ULL with steep mid level lapse rates, strong 500mb flow/long straight hodos and cold air aloft along with moderate SBcape
 
Euro gets this thing stuck now, ICON led the way, wow

I like that look. Amazing that we're apparently going to work through the majority of May without any big heat so far this year. What a magnificent spring we have had!
 
As of the 13th this May is almost 10 degrees below average at Greensboro and the coldest ever (tied with 1989) for first half. Havent seen RDU but id wager 2nd or 3rd. Most below average spot in the nation... reminds me of March 2019 .

CAE has yet to officially hit 90° yet I believe. My weather station here in Lexington hit 90° on May 5th. But other than that, the state has yet to have a day of widespread 90s yet.
 
I can't believe I'm still wearing a light hoodie to work here in Columbia SC loving this weather

Yeah, pretty nice for CAE folk. Been close, reached 89 once and 88 four times. Last year CAE hit 90 the first time on May 4th, but ended up the month with 16, 90 degree days, with five days in the last week reaching 100+!
 
Eh not getting my hopes up. My best guess is lots of clouds and isolated thundershowers for those not on this weather board. I would rather have ☀️ over surprise morning fog that turns into cad during most of the day.
 
Was it August of '18 NC was sandwiched to the east of a trough and west of the ridge for like 2 weeks? It was just this beautiful stretch of afternoon storms, and with crazy high pwat values it was like turning buckets over instead of simple rain.

Those storms knocked down a giant sweet gum tree in my backyard if I’m not mistaken, I remember the shelf cloud with that, I think this was that time period
