Weather

WRAL WeatherCenter Blog : How many days this August over 95 degrees vs. How many August days last three years over 95 degrees? I just thought that would make an interesting comparison stat, and I could not find it. Global warming? (for whatever reason)
WRAL WeatherCenter Blog : Last night we were in Henderson at a truck pull. At about 11:30pm we were sitting on some bleachers and the bleachers and ground started shaking and vibrating for about 15-20 seconds. No trucks were starting up or running at the time. Nobody seemed to know what was going on. I know that there are some fault lines within North Carlonina. Has there been any mention of a tremor or anything like that sited? I was in Arkansas years ago in a Mall and a tremor happened, and it felt the same.
WRAL WeatherCenter Blog : Is there a website that shows when and where lighting strikes occur?
WRAL WeatherCenter Blog : What was the source of Kim Deaner's showing of 3 - 4 inches of rain in her broadcast Sunday evening, Aug. 26. As a meteorologist, I checked around and couldn't find amounts that approached half that amount. My sources were the Raleigh NWS radar and the summaries from the Southeast River Forecast Center.
