This storm is brewed.

Dennis, where in Morrisville do you work? We didn't get a single drop of rain at my office and I'm in Morrisville.

These storms are tiny.
For instance, I've seen them hit cameron village, while campus and downtown didn't get a drop...

7/31/2009 1:23:31 PM

I'm at Weston Pkwy and Chapel Hill Rd and my office got hit with lots of rain and some pretty ominous sounding thunder - for about 15mins. Then it was sunny with not a cloud in the sky!

7/31/2009 1:24:35 PM

yeah, didn't last long for us either.

7/31/2009 1:26:28 PM

^^then he should say "stormin' at my office" and not name an entire town
