  1. MDT has officially reached 96, two more to go to tie the daily record.
  2. Tell me about it. Has thrown a real wrench into my monthly prediction I made yesterday haha. Should have known the mainstream forecasts hadn’t yet fully caught on to the backdoor cold front idea. Rats.
  3. For sure. Generally speaking, the more land-locked you are, the greater the seasonality. I remember one of the first days of a Meteo class I took at PSU the professor saying something to the effect of "Miami has never hit 100 and never gone below freezing, while Bismark, ND has hit [insert insanely high and low values]. That my friends, is seasonality. Large bodies of water work wonders for moderation."
  4. Looks like our relief should come the way of a potent little backdoor cold front that sweeps through Thursday evening.
  5. 76 when I left the house. MDT should smash its min max records of 75 for today and tomorrow.
  6. MDT with a quick plunge despite no clouds around and no real change in conditions ha.....
  7. In honor of this heat wave, decided to take an early look in the crystal ball and determined that June will end with an average temp of 74.0, good for ~1.4 AN and tied with 1923 for 12th warmest all-time. Book it.
  8. Low of 75 with .03" of rain. Today's record of 97 and tomorrow's 98 should be within reach for MDT. The max min records of 75 for tomorrow and Wednesday should also be on the table.
  9. We are certainly on a record-watch kind of week.
  10. I know a few people going to tonight’s game. Enjoy and stay cool!
  11. Just sat on the porch and watched rounds of T’showers roll through. Shocked it didn’t amount to more given the extreme moisture in the atmosphere and the solid radar returns. Perplexing. In any case, quite the forecast miss today, as I literally had 0% POPs for days on end for this time period. Air is THICK.
  12. Low of 71 here. Had our annual summer party yesterday and while hot, just glad it wasn’t like today or the next few. Got the yard cleanup done early this morning to beat the heat. Brutal out there. Did not expect this much on the radar and at that close of a distance. Interesting.
  13. Haha tell me about it. Normally we wouldn’t go out on a day like that but we had some friends in town from Alaska who really wanted to go on the boat. What’s nice about that long stretch of river is if you have RadarScope and a weather nerd on board you can pretty easily outrun any storms. But generally speaking, we wouldn’t typically be messing around in such conditions.
  14. Took some cool pics on the river yesterday while we were dodging storms. Fun stuff.
  15. Low of 60 with .78” of rain. Gorgeous day out there.
  16. That’s kind of what I’m thinking/hoping as well.
  17. Low of 69 with .03” of rain. We’ll be on the river this morning. Probably have to pull out early this afternoon. Keeping a close eye on things.
  18. I had a buddy send me some pics of decent flooding in Manheim. Looks like some spots up there got damn near two inches in a half hour, including a half inch in five minutes at one point. Intense.
  19. Not shabby. Move the decimal one place to the left at that’s about where I’m at.
  20. Everything skirted me all day here. It was wet everywhere when I got off the train in Mount Joy but not far into the drive home the roads quickly became bone dry. Just a couple hundredths at the house.
  21. MDT record highs for 6/23-6/25 are 97, 98, 98. I tend to think there will be a bit too much moisture in the ground for the surface level to break those marks but it could be close. We shall see.
  22. Low of 68 and .18” of precip. Summer has arrived.
  23. KMJS stats: 1.18" since Saturday, 2.19" for the month, and 20.46" YTD.
  24. Low of 63 with a hefty .73” of rainfall.
  25. Much more rain than I was expecting today. The ridge really looks to get pumping during the extended period. Summer on the way.
