  1. Highs in the 60s, lows in the 40s the past several nights. Seasonal change is upon us.
  2. 0.89” of precipitation yesterday. For all the hype of a big rain event it ended up being a run of the mill damp fall day in Minneapolis with a high of 63. 5-7” rainfall totals across the I-90 corridor of southern Minnesota.
  3. Picked up 0.99” overnight. Most rain we’ve had since the end of July and nearly doubling our August-September total so far. Glad to have it.
  4. 72/46 Peak early fall vibes, view from the hammock.
  5. High of 61 yesterday. Unbelievably the airport only recorded 0.20” of precipitation after models teased 0.50”-1.00” totals for several days. Drought continues to worsen.
  6. Rain just started here. Temps will be stuck in the upper 50s most of the day. Looks like a quality fall soaker, we need it.
  7. My kids will be in their late 70s, I’ll be 109
  8. Turtles galore on our walk by Wood Lake in Richfield today.
  9. Widespread frost advisories in northern Minnesota. The heart of the heat island should dip into the upper 40s tonight.
  10. Precip hole over the Twin Cities. Ride with it, sorry Iowa.
  11. Extreme drought now covers my corner of Minneapolis. Pattern looks wet ahead hopefully.
  12. It’ll either be October 20 or November 20. No in between.
  13. The Des Moines area received massive rain totals overnight. 5.89” and counting at the airport.
  14. 0.35” at MSP, largest precipitation event since July 30th and nearly our entire August total.
  15. 81/66 with all day overcast. No precipitation
  16. 87/72 yesterday. Backdoor “cool” front off Lake Superior made its way down here in the afternoon and knocked down the dew point. Pretty uncommon to get lake influence here.
  17. 90/68 today with 0.02” precip. Spent most of the day in the low 80s but after the clouds cleared temps were off to the races.
  18. 90/56 yesterday, oppressive dews return today and look to stick around for awhile. 0.04” rain overnight. Drought begets drought
  19. DP crashed from 72 to 57 and our temp shot up to 91. Hottest day of the month.
  20. Dew points have surged to the low 70s, hopefully the last time this year. Barring any surprises this will end up as the 4th DRIEST August on record in the Twin Cities.
  21. 0.26” of rain this morning which has more then doubled my August total to 0.46”
  22. Awesome viewing conditions for the 96% total lunar eclipse last evening.
  23. 83/48, enjoying the dry heat. Should have prime viewing for the lunar eclipse tonight.
  24. Early fall airmass moved in last night. Gusty NW winds, steep lapse rates and lower dew point. Trees are starting to show some drought stress. 0.20” since August 1 7.10” since June 1
  25. Sister in law lives in SF. Truly an incredible region. We try and visit at least once a year, always something new and wonderful to do.
