That is one hell of a high pressure to the north of this storm. Odd situation where you’ve got the 540 line all the way into Michigan and a tropical system barreling towards it.
To tell you the truth the Euro shows a legit CAD setup with a cold high 50s rain with this puppy inland
Figured I’d start a regional thread as it looks like significant impacts across the region. Verbatim serious rains for the Carolina’s/GA/TN with tropical storm strength into GA.
It’d be on brand for 2022 lol! We’ll see our first lows in the 50s here tomorrow night since April in Charleston so the cool, dry air is beginning to make to the coast again. Definitely something any potential system may have to deal with
With that line continuing on from Illinois to New York does it technically obtain a derecho classification? It had two extreme wind reports and meets the 250 mile requirement
Well said! I moved here at the beginning of 2020 and have not seen this overcast of a stretch since winters in Ohio. With this much troughiness in the US it's going to shut down the tropics with system after system
Ahh that’s a good point. Hell I’d even see hard gradients when I lived in NW Ohio. There’d be April days where you’d see temps of 55° in Toledo with an east wind but 75° around Findlay/Lima. It’s truly amazing how different places like Toledo/Cleveland are compared to even Columbus in climate
If I’m not mistaken that was followed by an active Fall severe weather season as well. I remember 2018 being a pretty hot year as Toledo reached 90° 44 times which is impressive as hell considering it’s proximity to the lake. What I couldn’t imagine up there would be the heat waves during the Dust Bowl. I’d love to see what those surface maps looked like with the Great Plains essentially being Phoenix East. I do say all of this by the way while sitting at my pool in Charleston with current conditions of 91°/77° so I’m definitely jealous of your June-August climo
