Gust front moved in off the Lake. Winds picked up some from 5-15 to 15-25, and temps went from 54-55 to 39-40 in 30 min. Currently light/misty rain falling. BRRR!
Decent call here as a CA LP moves cross the N with a trailing cold front. A piece of energy riding the S end of the front helping to kick up some stms. Back door cold front sags into the N, as HP comes S.
Well, they are just guidance on MAYBE.
Here across N MN yesterday, NWS DLH forecast, on a storyboard, highs around 39-45, and it ended up being 35-40. Happens regularly that forecasts, even on the day, are high/low balled.
Snow showers moving through today. Already seen a few flakes early this morning. More convective stuff slated for the afternoon. Could see a little white on the grass, if I get hit good.
0.70" so far from this system with light rn atm as LP leaves the area.. Wind gusts topped out in the low 50's yesterday. Pretty decent April storm. No thunder, tho.
Very windy today with NE winds off the Lake with approaching LP. Rain still S & W of me. Wind Advisory in effect for winds up to 40-50 mph for the rest of the day.
Beautiful day here with temps running in the mid-upper 60's. Low humidity has fire danger up a little with some gusty winds. Yesterday saw very warm temps as well in the mid-upper 60's. Take it while you can. April loves to swing hard.
Typical Spring wet wx on tap Tues-Wed. Winds expected to be up to 40-50 mph along the shore. Then cool wx for a few days before the next round. Backside snow showers across N MN also possible.
Grass is getting greener real quick here, too. Budding will take a little more time closer to the lake, as we tend to stay a little cooler. Longer days, and warmer temps. Time for summer season.
Overcast n rainy for me today. Peak eclipse time was 2:05 pm. It got a little darker here akin to near sunset lighting with heavy overcast. Not enough to get the street lights to come on, but noticeable. It was around 70% up my way.
Looking at posts on grading the Winter season, I'll say it was a D my way. Winter is generally Nov-Mar here, and we've had just enough to keep it from an epic fail. But A+ on the heating bill.
Windy off the Lake today as system approaches up to 30-35 mph. Looks like a good rain shield to my south. Messy wx starting later in the evening, but the precip will be welcome.
Basically running 24-36 hrs behind in my forecasts for this stretch. Mentioned a front 7th-8th which ended up being a weak trough, with a new system coming in on the 9th. Good luck in finding a good spot for eclipse viewing, as those limited areas will probably be quite packed due to cloud issues.
It'll being a rainy day for me, so when the eclipse hits it's peak for my area, a little added darkening to the gloomy day is all I get. Might be enough to get the street lights to come on.
Monday
Rain. High near 43. Breezy, with a northeast wind 15 to 20 mph, with gusts as high as 30 mph. Chance of precipitation is 80%. New precipitation amounts between a quarter and half of an inch possible.
