100 degrees in British Columbia

This is a bit of a reminder that while the very cool air was in the Great Lakes and other regions, Canada heated up, getting way up to 90F (briefly?) in the Northwest Territories. As you can see, this plot showed +17C (+30.6F) temperature anomalies on Friday. Tonight, the warmest anomalies are by Churchill, Manitoba.

Back to floods, on the Alexander Mountain burn scar. I assume this is from 2020, that's 5 years ago

Not so nice

RMNP web cams are all rainy tonight

Considerable severe thunderstorm warning for Iowa

I made a new loop of the complete US surface analysis maps of Hurricane Sandy. (That is, after it got onto the US map.) https://great-lakes-salsite.web.app/Sandy_loop.html

My place has had a couple of traces of rain since the beginning of the month.

Heavy squall line in Ontario

rainfall reports from W Michigan and Chicago

I guess this was a huge storm that I wasn't even paying attention to, because it was overnight

another very large hailstorm is somewhat close to the airport

This was almost over the airport

I hope Phoenix got some monsoon rains at some point this summer, because 116/28 is very hot and dry.

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.

oh wow, radar says Jonesville next to Hillsdale got 3-5". That's insane from such a random shower type of a weather pattern!

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

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

Orange skies and sun

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.
