Back edge of watch being cancelled! The nighttime frontal passage looks promising! Missing the pre game! ?

Here in Maiden we watched that storm pass by just to the NE. It looked fairly healthy.

Under a severe storm warning here until 5:15. Sky is really dark now at the house, but nothing else happening yet. Might end up missing me to the north.

 

[Brick Tamland]

Not sure how the storm was located in RDU moving east ends up missing me to the north, though.

Getting some house shaking thunder now. And more storms to the west.

Actually looks like the sever warned storm went to the south of me, and what I am getting now is on the southern fringe of another storm. Just hearing some pretty loud thunder.

 

[Brick Tamland]

Pretty nice line of storms from Conway back to Denton, NC.

Here in Maiden we watched that storm pass by just to the NE. It looked fairly healthy.

Edit:
The storm that built behind the first one hit us head on. Multiple CTG close strikes. Lost power for a few minutes. Man that was intense.

 

[Brick Tamland]

Finally getting rain here.

So my drive home from work is a 2 lane country highway for about 30 miles with very little traffic and usually takes me about 45 minutes. Not gonna lie today was one of the most horrifying drives ever, took me an hour and a 1/2 due to trees all across how way 561. I saw some massive oaks up rooted, some big trees snapped into, power lines down and I swear it looked at times like the trees were twisting as at it appeared like there might have been some rotation. Debris hitting the side of my vehicle.....it was definitely interesting. That storm meant business when it came through Franklin Co.

Here are a few meh pics, I wasn’t able to take pics when the storm looked it’s best due to the fact I was driving home from a haircut ?

Here’s more when the storm looked suspicious, that was inflow and right next that phone tower a wall cloud

Completely missed the good stuff and got a tenth of an inch. Too bad I have to wait another several days for a good chance again at least.

 

[Brick Tamland]

RAH saying another chance of storms today, but the chance of severe weather looks less than yesterday.

 

[Stump]

Late post, but had some of the toughest lightning I've seen around here yesterday. Had multiple close strikes. Some of the worst CTG lighting I've experienced living here.
