I'm sad to learn of John Burns passing. God bless his family.

Terrible loss. Great poster. RIP

May he rest in peace just just a legend

So sorry for your loss. My condolences. This forum has been in invaluable outlet for many of us through some very difficult times, myself included. May he RIP.

Agree. After the early Aug dew down, we may get a sustained war with a cooler Canada which will drive a tropical feed, moisture at least, into Ditty’s sweaty fanny.

My brother said a lot of flooding down on Hilton Head Island today.

I don't disagree with that. When you have these mornings after a super hot/humid day and you bring in this airmass overnight it feels great in the morning. It's hard to explain but because it got cool quickly last evening, I hated it more this morning lol. Like say it was really humid during the evening and then cooled overnight...I would have enjoyed better.

79/74 with a dew of 70. Was out pulling weeds, only thing that is keeping green with our rain shut out here. Could feel the humidity but because it is partly cloudy the feels like temp is 82. Catio is still out with 2 out of 3 furballs enjoying it. Figured let them out as probably tomorrow it will be coming back inside.

0.69" of rain yesterday. Another round moving in soon. 6.34" for the month so far. Could land in the top 10 wettest July's this year. #15 right now.

.....eh...feels great at this time of the year

Denise, and Floyd rainfall totals it does look like more than half came from non tropical systems :

It was lower 50's...that's certainly cool. If people's houses were 50's they'd be turning on the heat.

Right? Super cool! I believe they used VAPOR to create most/all of their graphics. Agreed in that I doubt they'll be able to replicate their success for most other tornadoes

what chill????????

89’d yesterday. Nice grouping of thundershowers popping up all over eastern Minnesota this morning.

If we're going to get a big severe event this summer, next week is the window. Looks solid at this range.

Not full blown...just enough to eliminate the chill. Outside of our bedroom and living room where the ACs are cranking down to like 66 the rest of the house is like 75-80...so going from that to 50's is a bit of a shock lol. 50's and sun...fine...50's with no sun set...not fine

c'mon lol

2011: Chicago set an all-time daily record rainfall when 6.86 inches fell during the early morning hours of Saturday, July 23, 2011, at O'Hare airport. The previous daily record was 6.64 inches set on September 13, 2008. wild while Chicago was flooding, we were in the midst of a 2 day extreme bake off. Today was the second day of the bakeoff: Records: Highs: EWR: 102 (2011) NYC: 100 (2011) LGA: 100 (1955) JFK: 102 (2011) New Brnswck: 105 (2011) LGA: 59 (1992) JFK: 59 (1992) I also remember Pinatubo cooled 1992....the year without a summer (we had a quick rubber band effect between 1991-1992-1993).

Fuck man RIP for real. Burns was a real one

Heh....closest I have been to normal since 2017-2018 is about 10" shy in 2020-2021. I haven't been sniffing normal. Its always either north of south of me.

Both 2-4°C of warming and cooling at the current pace of anthropogenic warming would be catastrophic. Non-transient changes like that do not happen at that sort of rate. Leaving out a time factor in the polls is in poor practice, because it creates a hypothetical environment of set warming or cooling with no time horizon. I think it's better to ask, if we were instead on pace for 2-4°C of cooling by the end of the century, and we knew we were the cause, would we try to pause that trend by mitigating our actions?

Looks like we won't see dry and coolish weather like we have had the last few days until the first week of August?

1999 had one of our hottest summers and 2 of our longest heatwaves ever. I'm surprised July 2010 isn't up there at your station though.

GFS pretty insistent on patches of 80s dews late this coming weekend/early next week.
