According to that. Where I'm at I would actually be in the one inch totals in the dark green. That seems completely reasonable being that I had a huge downpour about 4 in the morning last night
I picked up .03" overnight, so All Systems Normal.

Storms popping up now so maybe today will be your day!!!

Yeah, it was blockbuster. I got .08". Really cleaned up.
Looking at the Doppler estimate it's almost funny too see such a deficit over your area compared to the much higher amounts all around you. Just down the road from farmville to the east most of the county is approaching 2+ inches.
But I do have a small piece of happy news: After a four-month outage, I finally got the R.A. Fountain Weather Machine back up on the web today. (The computer needed a replacement power supply.) www.rafountain.com/raf_weather.html
Now let's see how quickly it can find yet another way to crap out. -lol-
And so passes another one of those "thunderstorms likely" days with no rain ever coming within miles of my house. It's what I expected. But when has being right ever done me any good?
AFDs this time of year make frequent mention of the seabreeze boundary as a potential focus for convective development. But the seabreeze ain't never shown me nuthin' to speak of. A few little transient, local pop-ups behind the boundary, then -poof- gone. I call b.s. on the seabreeze as a consequential weather maker, especially inland.

Yeah I've seen epic rainfall totals for places just inland from the beach but I've never seen any significant storms this far inland.
1.25" so far today, little pattern change to a more dryer pattern with no rain chances for the next 5 days really....been a long long time since that has happened, had rain 12 of the last 15 days of May and every day in June so far...

The Weather Service has me with a 60% chance of thunderstorms tomorrow afternoon. Raleigh's matrix forecast has Wilson getting about a tenth of an inch tomorrow night, and Morehead City has Greenville getting about a quarter inch. Meanwhile, this morning's QPF out of WPC shows the area receiving essentially zip. Unusual disparity in the products.
Through all of 10 forecast iterations, starting at mid-afternoon yesterday and right through the 7:18 PM issuance tonight, my local Thursday afternoon/evening POP was kept pegged at 50%. And yet, it's been the Gobi Desert, not only at my house, but within a gazillion miles of here. So dumb. So typical. So tiresome.
I wish the Weather Service would quit forecasting rain. Then maybe I'd get a drop or two.
