GEFS has this but there’s no sort of legit cool air feed 
Honestly not looking for cold air feed rn in early October but if we can squeak average instead of above that would put us upper 70s highs and upper 50s for lows which would be perfect

Not super far off from that 6 to 8 bullseye but seeing the widespread 4 to 6 is already going to spell an extremely wet week. Prob going to exceed the monthly average across most of the northern part of the state in just one week which is pretty crazy. I'm curious to see the final total map on if this overperforms or underperforms. I'll be measuring mby at least.
It's very unusual to see these kind of totals in October without a tropical system. When I look at these maps I always think in the back of my mind it would be great if it were winter and cold enough for snow lol.
Thankfully the Ensembles are normally straight up garbage.

Dang. Entire 10 day is nothing but low 80s and low 60s with cloud . Not unpleasant but ideally we would be getting sun and high 70s instead . Well, means more beach weather I guess .

So much for all that upcoming rain in Central NC. Went from 3+ over the weeks to 1.
Glad I didn't hold my breath.

I keeps going the wrong way.
With the amount you complain about it you deserve 0 inches
That’s mean ?
You’re more in western anyway I suspect you’ll see more than 1 .. all u need is to get lucky with a couple of cells tomorrow and that’ll help .. we will have rain opportunity for the next week so id relax on the my backyard is dry apocalypse talk for now
Are you secretly smast?? Burner account??
Nope. Young vs old we win
When was the last time the SE was in a major widespread legit drought? I feel like it’s been a while anyone know?
Oct 2019 was probably the last time a good % of the region was D0 or worse but there have been intermittent periods where lower % parts of the region were D0/1/2 since then. Not sure why region coverage of drought matters though since local drought in convective session seem more likely
I’m just trying to think back to a time the SE as a whole was in significant drought/ constant ridges stuck in that type of pattern for months like I feel like the WEST deals with every other year now … I certainly remember a time in the summer one year when I was a kid where it would just never rain .. don’t see much of that anymore
