Beautiful morning

Some exceptional temperatures are being reached in parts of France today. National highs of 38.0°C or above in May: Villefranche: 40.0°C (104.0°F), May 29, 1947 Fitou: 38.4°C (101.1°F), May 28, 2026 (through 1 pm) Argeliers: 38.1°C (100.6°F), May 28, 2026 (through 1 pm) Lacanau: 38.0°C (100.4°F), May 19, 1958 Pissos: 38.0°C (100.4°F), May 27, 2005 Salindres: 38.0°C (100.4°F), May 29, 1947

Yeah was thinking that as well. The GFS is close to 60 knots at the top of the mixed layer at the coast.

It wasn't supposed to be as warm as it was, which is the point. It was supposed to be mild, though. Yea, I def. fell into that trap to a degree.......it's tough to wipe the slate clean an not try to overcompensate for the previous effort's errors. Hey, least we know I don't have unilateral cold bias now. haha I def. thought the polar domain would prevent a 1972 redux that season, but it didn't work out. The other mistake I made was misinterpreting the competing cool ENSO influence as some sort of Modoki influence.

I've decided to give up on any gardening other than containers this year. This extreme drought is too much with almost a complete shutout for April and only 2.2 total for May. I expect Jun-Aug will be just as bad. Hopefully we get a wetter fall/winter and I will plan some garden beds for next spring. As for the lawn, I might try something in September if the super-drought is ending.

zzzzzz

Wax your skis.

I’ll tell you what though, there’s a three hour window where it could gust over 50 on the coast. Could be some minor wind damage with the leafed trees.

38 here, 32 at Baraga Plains, and the cool spot again Eagle Mine at 29. Should top out in the mid-upper 60's with wall to wall sun.

By the end of next week summer is here. Doesn’t look like big heat and dews, but more summer-like weather. We are almost to the promised land.

Yeah good luck

53 degrees for the low. 89 for the high yesterday. River has been running high up here. Going to be awhile before the docks are usable.

We tied both numbers...lol

Wish we could see some baseball or softball size hail ec3b14b3-d3cb-4a77-9edb-1fcc213ccb63.mp4

Hopefully lots of cold air aloft to fuel severe through Julorch. Still plenty of time for that "death ridge" look, like Augughst

Had about a quarter inch Wednesday morning, and just had a very light shower here. Currently 71°F.

That's not supposed to be there...

Sneaky high of 83 this evening. Was a great evening for a round of golf

Slightly below normal to normalish heat until mid-June and then maybe the ridge placement reshuffles to some bigger heat.

Oh boy as a surprise watering from a thunderstorm that popped up and is rolling through.
