Missed a bunch of overnight rainfall on the obs. We’ve had 0.57” today
-
0.17” of precipitation is all we could muster from the overnight cluster. Storms fired east of town today. Can’t reel one in this year. At least we got our first 90 of the year as a consolation prize, endless 70s in the extended.
-
Is the anemeter tuned correctly at Salina KS? If so, they are having some incredible wind gusts in that line of storms right now. 82mph gusting to 113!
-
Meager 0.04” is all we could muster in Minneapolis. Almost comical how all this precipitation keeps missing us. At least there is active wx in the region to look at.
-
Going to get hot and steamy these next several days. Grad party for my sister-in-laws kid today at a lake in the western suburbs. Already been watching my kids chase each other around with a garden hose this morning
-
Miss north and south with storms today. Officially picked up 0.09” last night at the airport but less imby. Dews crept up into the mid 60s today. First truly muggy day of the year here.
-
Promising squall line collapsed and dissipated over the western metro. Barely wet the sidewalk here.

82/45 is tops when you are sitting outside with a book.

June begins with a high temperature of 80. Dews have crashed into the upper 40s this evening.

May 2026 finished exactly 1.0F above the long term average in Minneapolis. 2.24” of precipitation which is -1.67” below average. There was a late freeze on May 6th. The somewhat surprising 0.37” we received yesterday couldn’t have been timed better.

It worked
-
Couldn’t script it better here. 81 with a 45 degree dew point. Beach weather.
-
87 today. Going to have my Anishinaabe coworkers teach me a rain dance soon.
-
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.
-
Couple pictures from our spring sojourn up north this past weekend.

MSP picked up 1.15” of very much needed precipitation yesterday. 2026 total stands at 7.88” Thats 14.6% of our year to date precipitation.

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.
