  1. I guess this was a huge storm that I wasn't even paying attention to, because it was overnight
  2. another very large hailstorm is somewhat close to the airport
  3. I hope Phoenix got some monsoon rains at some point this summer, because 116/28 is very hot and dry.
  4. Here's a piece of the overall weather situation this summer. And yes, it has been not very stormy at my place, not a lot of lightning, or severe thunderstorm warnings, even. The higher precipitable water is a very good reason why various areas of the country got more flash floods, and a few very bad ones. The severe storms have been lacking here. 500-300mb heights were too high. The jet stream missed us. Plus, I think, bad luck.
  5. oh wow, radar says Jonesville next to Hillsdale got 3-5". That's insane from such a random shower type of a weather pattern!
  6. Some smoke finally came in to the Front Range. Over here in Ohio, I've had high-level haziness for several days, and decreased air quality on Monday/Tuesday
  7. This might be the record CAPE for Colorado. It might be a bit overdone, with the far western Kansas station with the highest temp/dew point is 90/68 SPC Mesoanalysis said 6500 J/kg, which really should be the same exact thing as this plot, but it's not
  8. The dew points have gotten down to the upper 40's for part of the time here, with an overnight low-temperature condition of temp: 55, dew point:50. It feels so nice, like the dew points I used to feel out West. It's a change from the seemingly endless 70-75 dew points. I probably should have walked down the street to try to take a better picture of the red sun tonight. I didn't get a good picture. It's the reddest sun since 2023.
  9. Sorry, guys, the models were horrible for this week.
  10. Third day in a row of MCS/severe for this four-state area around Sioux Falls, SD
  11. You guys some get some numerous showers and thunderstorms with the upslope flow. There is a flash flood watch for Colorado Springs. The GFS predicts up to 2" in Weld County in the next two days.
  12. a bit of the crescent moon with some terrific clouds
  13. Radar says 3.5-5.0" was at Romulus/DTW airport and maybe 3.5-4.0" at Fraser/Mt Clemens, northeast of Detroit.
  14. Direct hit with heavy rain and lightning, as well as some severe wind reports.
  15. CAPE is up to 8000 J/kg in the Plains. one tornado ongoing some heavy rain and floods in NW OHio
  16. The HRRR for tomorrow night has another squall line of huge storms from Aberdeen to Minneapolis, just like tonight
  17. possible large hail/ strong winds coming in to Minneapolis
  18. I have spent many days hoping for an insane CAPE measurement in the northern Midwest. Looks like we got a confirmed 6000 J/kg in Aberdeen South Dakota
  19. I saved this the other day, #1 hottest 30-day period for New York
  20. St. Louis area (Belleville IL) had 96/79/114.3
  21. high heat index, perhaps the hottest of the year for any area that's 107-109 right now
