Interesting in that I thought a larger number would've been killed when struck.Wolfer79 said:
Each year in the United States, more than 400 people are struck by lightning. On average, between 55 and 60 people are killed; hundreds of others suffer permanent neurological disabilities. Most of this can be avoided. Keep these in mind! #ncwx #scwx #WeatherReadyNation
Each year, more deaths occur due to flooding than from any other thunderstorm related hazard. Over half of all flood-related drownings occur when a vehicle is driven into hazardous flood water. Remember these words: #TurnAroundDontDrown #ncwx #scwx #WeatherReadyNation https://t.co/ISMxhbsYTI
Today's Severe Weather Preparedness Week topic is flooding. FEMA will be holding a flood webinar next Wednesday, March 17, from 11AM 12PM EDT to cover important flood-related topics. You can register at the following link: https://t.co/f1Yodbllbj https://t.co/y1Xlzjf3c3

As we forecast last Sunday, we've now gone 11 days without rain at RDU, and the eventual tally appears like it will be 14 days before rain arrives early Tuesday. The last stretch of 11 days without rain ended on 6/9/20, while the last 14 day stretch goes back to 10/7/19.

Getting pretty worried about this weather we are expected to have tomorrow. Looks like it's going to be rough
I've been watching this pretty closely. I did notice I wasn't in anything on the coast. According to NOAA, I won't see anything. Lol. In all seriousness, I'm expecting it to be rough down this way. It always seems to intensify when it gets right to the coast.
Tomorrow looks like it's definitely going to be a day to watch which seems weird given how cool it's been the last couple of days.
Saw something from Greg Fichel that discussed this. He basically said in easy to understand terms. If the cold air is stubborn and doesn't move out quick enough, it will cause the warm air to collide with it therefore generating severe outbreaks across the state. Much more so then if the cold air goes ahead and slides out of the state.
Really miss that dude. Was basically the last reason why I still watched WRAL. Enjoy seeing his posts on Facebook.RunsWithWolves26 said:

Facebook is where I saw it steve. Reading what he wrote will make much more sense then me trying to say it.
Sounds like some serious **** developing tomorrow. 3 to 6 pm is prime time for the triangle area. Might be a good day to work remote or leave work at lunch if that's an option for people. Rush hour and weather never mix.
Done my prep work after work yesterday. Hoping it doesn't get to rough down here on the coast this evening.
Down here on the coast, it has that bad weather feel. Muggy as hell, windy and just feels like trouble. I guess we will start finding out in about 6 hours. I swear it has the "right before a hurricane hits" feeling outside today.

that 'you can smell the rain' feeling?
More like smell the storms. Down here near the coast, I can usually tell if it's rain or going to be worse. Hopefully I'm wrong this time.
Nothing so far here in Charlotte, but don't want to jinx anything.
