    Obviously it's going to be modified for this subforum, but the warmer temps are definitely on track for next week as the Omega Block finally breaks down (which is typically how temps respond with the strong subsidence in its wake). In fact, a record high of 101*F (you read that right, not a typo) is forecasted here on Wednesday, with 90s expected all next week starting Tuesday. That said, in the mean time, looking at a mostly cloudy weekend on the western fringe of the ULL with highs in the 70s.

    That extremely late-in-the-season PV split during early April kind of helped to reset the pattern from what was looking to be a torchy Spring (after the unusually warm/dry March). That said, there are early indications of a transition to more heat/ridging by mid-month.

    ^^^Nasty work...

    Probably won't be as cool as the 500mb map suggests, FWIW. But yeah, will suck for severe weather prospects outside of possibly the Southern Plains.

    It's definitely a thread the needle kind of setup with decent bust potential. Part of the problem (which the CAMs are likely picking up on) is that the better ascent/forcing will start to peel away by late afternoon/early evening before convective temps are achieved. There is, however, a 6 hour window from 18z to 00z though where sky's the limit if everything aligns just right.

    DET wasn't nearly as bad as has been the last 2-3 years. If anything, it was often a hair cooler than DTW...

    DFW overachieved by a few degrees with a high of 88*F today.

    And the record was tied with an intra-hour high...

    You have my condolences...

    Near-record warmth is expected for DFW tomorrow. The forecast high is 92*F and the record high is 93*F.

    Yep.

    Could see 100s in parts of NW Texas tomorrow.

    Unfortunate...

    I confirmed with my mom (after making that post) that she didn't see any accumulation.

    Looks like DTW got 1.8" of snow from last night's event. And it appears to have been a general 1-2" snowfall across all of the Detroit area.

    And Deep South for that matter. The most El-Nino-esque La Nina winter we've had in a while...

    I mean, one can say the same about many places up north before Central Heating was mainstream / affordable...

    Let's just say I'll rather deal with Summers in Texas over the Winters downwind of the Great Lakes. EDIT: And days like the ones we're expecting through the weekend (temps stuck in the 50s with nothing but stratocumulus and light stratiform rain/drizzle) only reaffirms how much I would hate having to deal with several months of it.

    And it's all relative too. Even an oppressive Summer (ala 2011 or 2012) for the Detroit area would be considered cool for the Deep South and Desert SW...

    With an average temp of 64*F, 2025 was the 6th warmest March on record for DFW...

    Warnings for 80 MPH winds in Genessee and Oakland Counties..

    Warning for Detroit now, 70 MPH winds...

    Welp, aside from the freak FW storm that collapsed just as fast as it blew up, this afternoon's Watch is turning out to be a bust...
