  1. Radar is lit up this evening. Come on RAIN!! Have had a good drenching so far, but need more. Heavy weather in S MN and to the SW of there. Maybe some tornadoes.
  2. Don't remember, but it was a long while back.
  3. Hurricane Opal many years ago was heading north in the gulf towards Pensacola as Cat 1, and strengthen to Cat 5 overnight. It didn't stay at that level long, but scared the hell out many down there. Tiny storm, too. Landed Cat 2 or 3, don't remember.
  4. What is the tide forecast? High/low/in between? Anyone?
  5. My thoughts here. Ridge tomorrow a.m. stands tough in SE and as it nears shore, a little land friction will move this thing a little west. With it becoming a large, very strong system, it will be influenced easier by these. And it's supposed to slow some coming in, I do believe, so that, too, will make it easier to be influenced by said factors. Either way, a very bad day for LA coming up tomorrow
  6. The next 24hrs shows the best opportunity in weeks for heavier rains. Come on n bring it!!
  7. Had a little yesterday. Most of the rain stayed just west of the Arrowhead, but today looks much better for something significant.
  8. Extensive damage reported around Marble Rock, IA from yesterday evenings tornado.
  9. Tornado watch for east central MN into NW WI until 4pm. West central MN seeing heavy weather with winds up to 70 and 1.25" hail. Radar rotation just WNW of St. Cloud invoked a tornado warning. Looks like a squirrely few hours coming up just south of me.
  10. A cool, overcast day today with low 60's and about 0.25" of rain. Need much more than that. Even still, should help greatly with the Greenwood fire.
  11. Veteran's Day looks to be cool but nice for most with weather in the south, and a front approaching from the west.
  12. Halloween looks to be wet for some, while cold and blustery for others.
  13. My forecast for Columbus Day calls for inclement weather affecting parts of the region.
  14. This day many may not be aware of, but it's National Clean-up Day. This year it's on the Saturday, Sept 18. I'm expecting wet weather to move into our region that day.
  15. My guesstimate for the Fall outlook is something like this, so we shall see if it ends close or a bust. Did ok with the summer outlook which I put in the summer thread.
  16. Good chance of rain moving in today and for the weekend. Should greatly help firefighting efforts concerning the Greenwood fire, now at 26,000 acres. My other son lives in Silver Bay, and he had heavy smoke and ash falling last night. Really bad stuff. Smoke rolled in here around 5 am for a little while, but east winds cleared things out.
  17. The Greenwood wildfire north of me expanded from 10,000 to 19,500 acres overnight. North Shore got smoked out really bad last night too. Woke up at 0 dark 30 to close window. Just nasty. We had some rain this morning (around 0.1") in town, but very little made its way up north. Chance for more this aftrn/eve, but any lightning strikes could start more fires. There is currently a 1500 acre fire going in the BWCA, with a couple other small ones.
  18. 00z GFS showing the pattern I'm expecting for the start of Labor Day weekend. Not at all uncommon to have strong cold fronts in early Sept. So we shall see how close I get on this one.
  19. A little on the warm side for July, due to the warmer weather in the northern parts of our region.
  20. A whole tenth of an inch of rain really early this morning. Nice today with west winds and 80. Low dews and smoke free skies. No rain in the forecast for a few days. Just really pleasant weather. Need much rain tho.
  21. Temps in the low-mid 60's with a breezy NE wind. Rain staying south of me tho. Maybe tomorrow.
  22. Pm weather missed me, so this weekend will hopefully do better. Avg temps today in the mid-upper 70's. Easterly winds will keep temps down this weekend, but a good soaking rain would be a nice trade off.
  23. 0.38" of rain this morning with storms for the afternoon. Temps around 70 now. Feels really good. Forecast has off and on chances of rain the next few days. Much needed.
  24. A full day with no smoke. Breathable air for a change. Refreshing.
