    Too dry.. 

    that stuff out there was triggered by the complex of Lake boundaries ...then some secondary enhancing by terrain.  I bet that has trouble come E into the lowering SBCAPE - it may evolve SE of the flow where there's more instability.  

    I am kind of hoping the activity will cluster enough and develop a cold pool to survive on and lead to some downstream development :lol: 

  2. This month is going to be a scorcher. We'll get some breaks in the higher heat/humidity...I mean we're at the mid-latitudes so fronts will be coming through but those breaks will be brief. Looks like we could get at least one day of 90's towards the end of next week (maybe two), then a front goes through and we drop off again (still seasonably warm) and then could be looking at another push of high heat/humidity

    Euro loves to do this in summer , people get all excited for sister and then it vanishes faster than a plate full of stuffing on Scooter’s Tgiving plate. 

    QPF can't be taken at face value during the warm season (unless you're dealing with a clear-cut and well-defined synoptic lift event). When you're dealing with convection, guidance (especially less coarse models) are going to whip up erroneous QPF amounts over a widespread area when the reality is you're looking at convective precip which is going to be more hit and miss.

    CAMs are all over the place. RRFS is gung ho (the MPAS version not the FV3) but others are nil. I have to think something pops before the heat is gone. Rarely does it go out with a whimper.

    I would have to think something pops too. At least in the case of tomorrow, we have pretty decent height falls into the evening and overnight and lapse rates are pretty respectable for these parts. Shear is pretty solid too, although llvl flow being more westerly may limit convergence? Instability will be there. This is hitting a nice area for wind potential tomorrow and this corridor lines up well with where the best ingredients overlap

    There's some mid 80s dappled around but most sites are 80 now...  still not good enough for 90 by 90.

    Logan's 88 though.   

    The interior ... the more I look at this, they were hobbled by a wet outflow overnight and will need to work extra hard over the next hour

    A lot of evaporation going on too with the rain that moved through. When I went outside with the dog earlier it was like a sauna with the steam rising.
