  1. 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.
  2. My kids will be in their late 70s, I’ll be 109
  3. Turtles galore on our walk by Wood Lake in Richfield today.
  4. Widespread frost advisories in northern Minnesota. The heart of the heat island should dip into the upper 40s tonight.
  5. Precip hole over the Twin Cities. Ride with it, sorry Iowa.
  6. Extreme drought now covers my corner of Minneapolis. Pattern looks wet ahead hopefully.
  7. It’ll either be October 20 or November 20. No in between.
  8. The Des Moines area received massive rain totals overnight. 5.89” and counting at the airport.
  9. 0.35” at MSP, largest precipitation event since July 30th and nearly our entire August total.
  10. 81/66 with all day overcast. No precipitation
  11. 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.
  12. 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.
  13. 90/56 yesterday, oppressive dews return today and look to stick around for awhile. 0.04” rain overnight. Drought begets drought
  14. DP crashed from 72 to 57 and our temp shot up to 91. Hottest day of the month.
  15. 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.
  16. 0.26” of rain this morning which has more then doubled my August total to 0.46”
  17. Awesome viewing conditions for the 96% total lunar eclipse last evening.
  18. 83/48, enjoying the dry heat. Should have prime viewing for the lunar eclipse tonight.
  19. 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
  20. 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.
  21. I’d like to live in western Montana, somewhere within 90min of a quality ski resort. Spent two summers in college living in Dillon Montana and loved exploring that area and especially points north. Would also be very content in/nearby Grand Marais MN with Lutsen for my winter skiing habit, a reliable water source and imo high quality and vastly underrated hiking and camping opportunities everywhere.
  22. 78/48 another excellent day watching the grass turn brown.
  23. Can’t beat a late summer day with a dewpoint of 46 I tell ya.
  24. Strong virga storm yesterday, tippy bucket measured a T.
