#Chantal brought 7-12" or rain over part of NC, which corresponds to almost TWO MONTHS of rain in just 24 hours.
Also, about 400 square miles experienced a 1 in 100 year flooding event

We are at the 6-month anniversary of #Helene, and a lot of emotions are stirring up
I posted this 6 months ago ahead of the first signs of rain in Southern Appalachia
And despite what some may say now, folks who are more vulnerable to extremes are still important to highlight

Last week, some pictures came to me from Western North Carolina. Helene debris still contains a lot of lost memories.
Social media was able to bring a lot of them back to their owners. Special thanks to Jack Kendrick and @ethangclark02.bsky.social for making it happen.

WHAT'S THAT SMOKE?
A controlled burn to the south in the Uwharrie Forest is sending a smoke plume into the Triad right now.
You can see visibility is quite poor in High Point currently.
This could last an hour or two.

Today's 'Stand Up for Science' rally drew thousands to D.C. It was the first major protest in response to actions by the Trump administration that critics see as a threat to scientific progress, including the recent firing of hundreds of employees at NOAA.

Why is it so windy on this sunny day?
- Air flows from high pressure to low pressure
- We are caught in between a strong high and a strong low
- This creates a strong flow of air, which we call wind!
- Once high pressure shifts toward us tomorrow, winds will lessen #ncwx
