  1. Wow those are some low dews for July. Looking like a break from the 70 degree dews here for tomorrow. Looks like dews should mix down to near 60 in the afternoon, which is great for the corn belt in mid July. Looking further ahead 80 degree dews are coming the week after next from the looks of things.
  2. Up to 1.83" for the day. Best soaker of the year so far. Combined with yesterday's 0.27" brings us up over 2 inches for the 2-day.
  3. Pretty sweet comma head action up that way. Up to 1.10" here. Some big positive stroke crashes of thunder behind the main line shaking the house.
  4. Flash flood emergency declared for Davenport/Bettendorf. Sounds pretty bad there. They got smoked there last night too. Picked up a quick 0.55" in a 5 min torrential downpour here.
  5. Nice blast of 55mph winds from the outflow. Storm already undercut here, so nader threat already nil.
  6. Can hear sirens in the distance. Getting the popcorn ready.
  7. Dews above 75 this afternoon. Feels pretty swampy out there.
  8. The late night Iowa action crapped out. Final total 0.27". One more shot at it later today, hope better luck this time.
  9. 0.00" from the evening round. Hopefully the late night activity holds together. EDIT: Picked up 0.12" 1-3" fell 10 miles north, and now just to the south is getting hammered. QC under FF warning.
  10. The back edge of the Dixon sup looked very nice in the eastern skies for the drive home from work. Looks like it's been dropping golfballs along it's path.
  11. Morning storms died to the west over Iowa, and this afternoon they're blowing up just east. Gotta love it. Hope we can cash in on the leftover Iowa activity later tonight.
  12. Picked up 0.05" from some dying anvil showers.
  13. First we got rid of the clippers, now it looks like MCS are going extinct as well lol
  14. Looks like our next shot at any widespread rain will come Friday night. Hopefully the setup shifts a bit further east this time. Hope that comes through because after that looks pretty zzzzz.
  15. ^ That would be nice. Feeling fortunate to have scraped up 0.63" out of the Iowa scraps.
  16. As expected the Iowa stuff is breaking up as it moves into IL. The outflow has cooled it off nicely though.
  17. Just had a 2 min period of large drop sprinkles. Top 5 event of the summer so far.
  18. Today will be the 13th 90 degree day here, and the 11th for MLI.
  19. The numerous days above 90 with full sun definitely have sped things along.
  20. Well in about 2hrs we'll officially close out the 24-25 snow season, and lock in the new all-time futility record at MLI with just 8.2". That beats what I always thought was untouchable old record of 9.9". Would be awesome if we could go to the other extreme next season and achieve the most snowfall ever. That would be insanely cool to pull off.
  21. The past few runs of the Euro show <1" or rainfall for the QCA through mid-July. Looks the drought monitor will be upping from abnormally dry to moderate drought by mid-month if trends continue.
