According to Hp30 (this is an index like Kp, but it averages over 30 minutes instead of 3 hours), we are in a G5 storm. Anything over '9.0' is G5-- we are at '11'. Time will tell if this #solarstorm has the punch to cause Kp to reach G5 as well. #SpinalTap references duly noted.

The overall rain chance is lower today than it has been all week, but there's still likely to be a few thunderstorms around this afternoon/evening. The best chance appears to be in the mountains & around #CLT & neighborhoods along & S/E of I-85. #NCwx #SCwx #CLT wx
