Interesting, I was watching his tournament today and must have been away at the time because I did not catch that. Did he say what month he thought it was?
-
Perked up right before the lake with a very solid garden variety storm. Tons of heavy rain and lightning, about 40mph gusts.
-
For the American posters you’re most likely right. I can’t speak for the Ontario folks.
-
We’ll see, definite signs the last half hour of disorganization but still tons of lightning with the MCS.
-
Extensive cloud debris and a sub severe complex in NE Iowa throwing doubt into today’s forecast. Even with that, still upper 70s already at 8am.
-
More southward building than even I thought.
-
Ours are closing due to poor water quality/possible bacteria.
-
Not really the best day for MKE’s sensor to go out (it appears). We looked to be headed just short of 90F, but not sure. Would only be our 4th of the summer.
-
Would hopefully also dampen the extreme heat expected this weekend.
-
20% chance of any rain overnight, yet the remains of this complex survived all the way to the lake. I'm thinking it's a positive feedback effect of all the rain we had last week; sure beats negative feedback we've had some years with drought developing in summer. Some house rattling thunder even.
-
Who knows at this point? We can all say we know the progression of COVID-19 over the next couple years but none of us do, only educated (and some uneducated) guesses.
-
Certainly not this week, in fact through Thursday it's looking really seasonable for mid July. That certainly wasn't looking like the case last week when we were looking ahead to this one.
-
Where are you located? I took Champaign for instance and they received over 7" in June. Gradient is pretty stark clearly.
-
What was your high today?
-
I'm kind of wondering where that will be a problem? These ridges aren't exactly 2012 with dry frontal passages.
-
I think I count four different boundaries intersecting a little west of Milwaukee. Hard to say what the convection to the west will look like as it gets toward the lake.
-
Your lawn must be getting a good drink today; I see a 2nd thunderstorm has just taken aim on Grand Rapids today.
-
In this pattern this week it’s uncanny how the biggest pop ups tend to be near major cities.
-
Haven't had many NW flow setups yet, but this could easily be a decent one.
-
Milwaukee was 89’d today (only got up to about 86F at my place) so no official heat wave with this first spurt of mid summer heat (only 2 days of 90s in a row and 3 on the year).
-
Yeah we got a quick downpour like that in the Milwaukee area today too, 5 miles away it looks like they had a quick quarter inch in about 15 mins and not a drop here. Luckily we don’t desperately need rain at this point.
-
The case numbers are worthy of a freak out, but most of the rest of the states' numbers aren't worthy of a freakout..at this time.
-
It looks like even our brief cooldown will still have peak temp/dew point figures above 80/60. That's about average, going to be pretty weird not to have any decent July breaks from the heat, at least in the first half of the month.
-
Do you ever get the inverse of lake breeze thunderstorms, at least for counties adjacent to the lake? In your case it would be light easterly winds (or similar component) giving way to west winds off the lake.
-
Western Lower Michigan seemed to do decently with storms in May and June, but this July pattern and lake shadow appearance looks to do them little favors. I guess this persistent ridge and common SE/E flow is the main culprit.
