  1. Found out today my coworkers family cabin burned down due the fires up north. They can’t even clean up until the insurance adjuster comes out which isn’t for another week. Ironically he showed me a picture of unscathed plastic chairs surrounded the fire pit. Nearing 2” storm total precipitation in Minneapolis. Perfect long duration event. Wish it would spread further north.
  2. 43 and moderate rain. Picked up about an inch overnight. At least another inch today. Loving the moisture.
  3. Chilly morning but warmed up nicely to 59 this afternoon. Glorious rain has moved in this evening. Wet day working ahead of me tomorrow. I’ll take it, we need the moisture.
  4. 0.17” rain yesterday. After yesterday the average monthly temperature is now warmer in Paducah.
  5. 65.3 v 64.6 remarkable. We currently have roughly the same monthly average temperatures as middle Tennessee. Paducah will be in the 80s and Minneapolis the 60s next week though. High of 53 today with scattered wind driven light rain. Drove to Des Moines this afternoon. Wicked 40mph crosswind the whole drive.
  6. We dropped from 66 to 46 in 25min, not quite as impressive as you.
  7. Damn we are getting a dust storm here. Wasn’t expecting this.
  8. Managed to get a few rumbles of thunder and 0.05” of rain. Can’t even call it garden variety. Big let down.
  9. Bout to get rocked here. Southern metro watch out. Tor warned storm entering the I-35 corridor
  10. Only managed 1 day at or above 90 in the Twin Cities during this stretch.
  11. Miss on round one. Guidance nailed the hard turn to the north as the decaying line approached the metro.
  12. High of 87 today. There are now 3 large fires burning out of control in northern Minnesota. Super weird seeing photos of large wildfires before leaf out has taken place.
  13. Nope. I’m a lifer here, wife is from Plymouth MN. If I had my way we’d move to Duluth or north, but that is not a battle i’m winning until the kids are grown.
  14. Our yard is so small and with two kids I want to maximize space for them to play and have a garden, so no trees back there. I’ve got a couple sugar maples in front and the Norway Spruces are right against the fence. Hopefully in a couple years we’ll move out to the suburbs and have a lot of space for tree planting.
  15. Ditto. Northern boreal transition forests are my favorite. My neighbors Norway spruce puts off a handful of saplings in my yard every spring. Want me to ship you some?
  16. Impressive considering we got down to 58 at MSP. The heat island capital of the Midwest.
  17. We’ve reached 90 at MSP. Setting a new record high for today. There is a 200 acre wildfire burning north of @Brian Din Brimson MN. With the conditions the next few days it could get out of hand quickly if not contained.
  18. Today is the last windows open day for awhile. The AC will likely be turned on for the first time this year during this upcoming hot stretch. Tomorrows record high is 88 which is also the forecast high. My gut says we hit 90 everyday Sun-Wed
  19. 70/23 couldn’t script it any better.
  20. 72 full sun and a slight breeze today. Some precipitation showing up in fantasy range.
  21. Basically a July temperature forecast here. Can’t even muster up any precipitation, drought starting earlier this year.
  22. 80 and sunny at msp. First official 80 of 2025
  23. 3 blocks from my house, the water is glass, can’t beat this.
