Dews in the mid/upper 30s in June!!!! Feels like living on borrowed time but I’ll take it. Air quality finally improved as the AQI is down around 60.
-
Couldn’t see across the lake on my commute this morning. Conditions are improving already thank goodness.
-
Cold front passed through the twin cities last night. Subsidence behind the front is bringing the smoke to ground level. The upper flow pattern had been out of the NW to my understanding. It’s a pretty thin band of surface level smoke. Western and Central Minnesota are already seeing improvements.
-
Very smoky rain this morning. AQI over 200, visibility under 3 miles. The smell of burnt boreal forest in the air.
-
Find a dark sky and look north.
-
Popped off our 2nd 90 temp of 2025 today, at least dews are manageable in the mid 50s. Big dog ground smoke heading this way. The Fargo area has had an AQI over 250 today. Letting the kids enjoy the splash pad before we are locked indoors.
-
Thick hazy smoke all weekend. Might have some surface smoke tomorrow. NWS mentioned the potential for Smoky rain with the cold front tomorrow.
-
Smoke is here. Nasty stuff, hasn’t reached the surface quite yet but coming. Embrace the new normal I suppose.

Corn sweat season will be here soon. Taking advantage of these 30s dews while I still can.

Minneapolis v Paducah May average temperature update. MSP: 60.5 PAH: 66.4 Yesterday was our first high above 60 since the 16th. Temperatures look to stay average/slightly below average through the next week.

Worked outside in the rain yesterday and today. Chilly and wet but I love being outside in the elements for a living. Sorry if you don’t. Going to run numbers tonight but Minneapolis has probably seen 30%+ of its total precipitation for 2025 this last 72 hours.

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.
-
43 and moderate rain. Picked up about an inch overnight. At least another inch today. Loving the moisture.
-
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.
-
0.17” rain yesterday. After yesterday the average monthly temperature is now warmer in Paducah.
-
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.
-
We dropped from 66 to 46 in 25min, not quite as impressive as you.
-
Damn we are getting a dust storm here. Wasn’t expecting this. -
Managed to get a few rumbles of thunder and 0.05” of rain. Can’t even call it garden variety. Big let down.
-
Bout to get rocked here. Southern metro watch out. Tor warned storm entering the I-35 corridor
-
Only managed 1 day at or above 90 in the Twin Cities during this stretch.
-
Miss on round one. Guidance nailed the hard turn to the north as the decaying line approached the metro.
-
Ready to get missed twice today.
-
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.
