If everyone thinks its dry now just wait until we move into Fall and Winter. With a super, super, super strong EL Nino coming the Walker Circulation is going to get so expansive and swallow the entire U.S. There will be no storm track...just a massive high pressure from coast to coast. We'll be seeing highs in the 80's into November and highs in the 50's and 60's through the winter. No precip

I was just going to comment on this

I'm pretty sure that supercell is producing a waterspout that is sucking Great White Sharks out of the Gulf

Nice classic supercell just off the western Florida coast

I wonder how rare Blowing Dust Advisories are in Illinois

Maybe we can try sneaking in an EML ~next Tuesday

There definitely is some support for the typical torch spots to hit 90

Looking at some significantly warmer periods coming up but should be active with the fropas too. However, the theme should be much different than we've seen with cool dominating. Should be warmer days winning out with a day or two of cooler temps post fropas

Some people must think we live in the Amazon or something. You'd think we're supposed to average like 70+" of rain a year

Today absolutely blows. Saying today is depressing is an understatement

HRRR did pretty well yesterday having these showers moving through

Well so much for lasting until Fall I’ve been wanting to hold off longer, but my girlfriend had been looking at shelters and came across Izzy and fell in love with her. She was found around a gas company by some employees and had a leg injury. They had paid for the surgery and brought her to the shelter. we went to go meet her last night. Unfortunately, she came down with a cold and because she is being treated we can’t legally take her across state lines. So hopefully we will be able to bring her home Tuesday or the following Tuesday.

what about adding NBM and NBM probabilities?

This is pretty cool!

I wonder if the below average precipitation departures (not just in our region but within the country), particularly the last several years are a product of what seems to be the peak of the +AMO regime. Or I shouldn't say directly related because there are always other factors but perhaps a large driver.

Let's do it

Good call Scott. Gusts are ripping here

At some point you'd think we may generate a nor'easter...we've come close but have fallen short.

When I used to work as a camp counselor over the summer there were a few kids sitting under a tree during lunch. I didn't see this happen because I was inside with a few of the kids, but a large limb fell out of nowhere and just missed the kid. Extremely scary stuff. I believe it was a giant oak but it was rotting...the town quickly came in and they either completely took it down or significantly trimmed it

Finally back to full sun and temps soaring

Winds may end up underperforming today too

At least tomorrow should provide some widespread rains...nothing eye opening in terms of totals but a nice little drink. PWATS are rather high though so could be some room to get towards the higher end guidance tomorrow

Was doing nicely warming up but clouds have put a lid on things

It is sooooo depressing when you see big CAPE building into the upper-Midwest and Great Lakes region then watch it just get destroyed and shunted to our southwest when you loop it. Very depressing

Yeah not a fan of it at all. Who knows, maybe this will be bought up during the next CBA meetings which will be shortly (they've already been addressing some topics).
