  1. It’ll be close. HRRRx has handled the past several days well, and has a ~10F spread over ~10 miles, with ORD right there in it. .
  2. 91 ORD today. (11th) 89’d MDW and 92 here. Oddly enough, MDW has been running a bit cool on some of the warmer days recently. .
  3. June 2020 finished tied for 6th warmest June on record. One of the years it tied with might ring a bell... Warmest Junes On Record: 1. 76.2 - 1933 2. 75.8 - 1971 3. 75.7 - 1954 4. 74.3 - 1952 5. 74.2 - 2005 6. 74.0 - 2020 6. 74.0 - 2012 6. 74.0 - 1949 9. 73.9 - 1956 10. 73.8 - 1921
  4. HRRRx has 90-95 tomorrow across the metro, minus near the lake obviously. .
  5. Any time we are 89’d I’m annoyed, and yesterday was double, due to the streak potential. .
  6. 91 at ORD, 90 MDW and here today. 10th for ORD this year.
  7. Too bad the mid-lake buoy wasn’t deployed this year. .
  8. 89’d ORD, 88 MDW and here today. But of a lake influence prevented 90. .
  9. Some 90+ info for Chicago, given the pattern we are in and will be in for the foreseeable future... 90+ Days as of June 30th... ORD: 9 (94 highest) MDW: 6 (94 highest) MBY: 9 (95 highest) 1981-2010 average through June 30th for Chicago is 4.5 days and climate history average is 4.2 days...So while not record breaking or even close to it for now, this year is already running well above average for 90+ days.
  10. Had a peak DP of 79 and a max HI of 105 yesterday. .
  11. Summary of this new pattern, which could continue through the weekend of the 11/12th... .
  12. Wrong. Some of those issues can still come about in people who control it properly. .
  13. Up to 90 at ORD. 8th 90+ day on the year, and it's only late June.
  14. 87/77/98 here currently. Best climo. .
  15. DP’s at a season high across the area, running 74-79 across the LOT CWA this morning. Highest is KC09 (Morris) at 79. .
  16. Because Orangeman isn’t taking it seriously. That is the main problem. .
  17. Hit 90 here today. 89’d at MDW and 88 ORD. .
  18. Significant wind damage potential across N IN for the short term. Winds of 60-80mph likely in three distinct line segments. .
  19. Nice full blown MCS, with multiple line segments headed into S MI and N IN. There will likely be several corridors with significant damaging winds. Needed development a few more counties west of where it occurred for it to have been a mature MCS by the time it reached here.
  20. Initial storm came through here with 50-55MPH winds, and isolated tree damage. Have had a few other bursts of 40mph+ winds with a few embedded cells from time to time. Also have been in a mini train, with 1.59" of rain in last 40mins and still coming down.
  21. Even with a great environment, it looks like SFC inversion as noted on 20z DKB sounding could limited wind potential north of I-88. Thermal OFB has pushed north of MDW now, and runs to ARR or so now.
  22. That storm approaching DKB is right in the heart of the jet streak. If it can maintain, which it has so far, could be a sig wind threat with it into the western metro. .
