Preliminary data suggested MSP was 89’d today so the elusive first 90 waits another day. Average first 90 here is fast approaching on May 30th.

Broiling in Minneapolis under the Omega. Send rain please

Hot Memorial Day in Minneapolis under the influence of the ridge, 86 with the dew point creeping into the low 60s. Point had a forecast high of 88 so I’ll take the W.

Trace of precipitation yesterday. Rivers are dropping fast around here. Heat is parked overhead

Miss south unless one of the cells can hold it together after sunset. Sky looks great though
-
Heat cranks up today. Probably will run my A/C for the first time this year in the next week or so. Hoping to score a thundershower for some of that precipitation stuff we always seem in need of.

Low of 39 at the airport. There was patchy frost at my suburban office.

38F at 6am when I woke up and left the tent to relieve myself at Split Rock Lighthouse State Park. 42F around 2pm in Duluth letting the kids run around the Lake Superior Maritime Museum in Canal Park. 70F around 5pm when we rolled into the driveway in Minneapolis.

Faint aurora over Gitche Gumee last night.

Just had a heck of a detour but made it to our campground. First time I’ve been personally impacted by wildfire like that

80 today. Blowing dust west of town. There have already been several blowing dust advisories this year. Seems like more than any year in the previous 15 but I might have recency bias.

Hey @Brian Dhows greenup coming along up your way? Taking the family camping in your neck of the woods near Split Rock Lighthouse this weekend.

Beautiful benign weather in the Twin Cities but it’s dust bowl dry here. 0.02” of precipitation so far in May and only 6.71” since January 1.

Surprised how widespread the frost was this morning. Drought concerns starting to creep into this area if we don’t get some rain soon.
-
33 at MSP. Widespread frost
-
Surprised by both these stats the NWS just put out.

MSP got down to 32 this morning. Very likely our coldest morning until October.
-
Chilly but dry, beginning to need some moisture here and the extended doesn’t offer much hope. High of 52 today, maybe the last frost of the season tomorrow morning.

Patchy Frost this AM. Beautiful spring day on tap

Patchy frost to end the month. 3.25” of precipitation in April at MSP
-
1.14” of precipitation here yesterday. Would have liked more but this was a welcome rainfall. Temps look average to slightly below average over the next week locally.
-
Steady stratiform rain all day. We needed a good deep soak, could use more but this is a great start. Got soaked at work and didn’t mind one bit. Now my grass might start to grow.
