We're under a severe warning, and we're not even in the marginal lol. About to get dumped on yet again.

Now that it's June 3rd it is now the 160th anniversary of the great Camanche tornado of 1860. The most infamous tor in DVN's cwa to be sure, and one of the deadliest tornadoes in US history. Hard to believe something like this happened in this area as almost all tors in this area are birdfart EF1 one-scan spin-up wonders.

Euro seems to have the opposite problem compared to last year regarding temps. Last year it was too hot with temps, especially over areas that hadn't had much rain. This year it's under-doing temps by 5-8 degrees in many cases. Was off by almost 10 degrees over northwest Iowa today in areas that hit 100.

93 here, 94 at DVN. A few spots in northwest Iowa have tagged 100.

They were right. Three locations at 97 degrees, while a site in western MN is at 99.

HRRR brothers are forecasting temps in the mid to upper 90s over southwestern MN tomorrow afternoon. Looks like we have a shot at our first 90+ day of the year on Monday.

Yeah I was surprised about the new day 2. I thought Jewell was one of the better forecasters, but who knows.

Yeah if the HRRR/HRRRV4 are anywhere close to accurate there could be some nice tors tomorrow afternoon. Very low LCLs and very nice low-level shear, combined with more than adequate instability. Looking like a great local setup.

I guess at work they started some kind of decontamination spray you walk through as you come through security on the way into the facility. I'm on vacation for the next two weeks so I'll be curious to see how that works when I go back.

I think the Gulf of Mexico is trying to expand northward to meet the GLs.

It's in the 80s in northwest Minnesota lol. EDIT: 107 in Texas, 80s in southern Canada. 50s in the Midwest/Ohio Valley.

We'll probably totally flip the pattern, and have multiple 100 degree days in June. I'm sure at the least we'll easily tag a few 80 degree dews with all the moisture we're getting.

Won't have to run the A/C till June this year lol.

Good to hear.

Has that been doing better than the HRRR and NAM3? I haven't really used that one yet.

There's always the Flowbee.

Low to mid 90s for central/southern MN on the Euro around day 10. Most of the sub only makes it to the low to mid 80s though.

Those bad boys are mean as hell. If you're gonna shoot their nest with a bee-bee gun, make sure you have a clean escape route, and fast transportation away from the area.

Are we gonna have a homicidal wasp thread?

Yellowstone?

We have 99 confirmed at ours, with 2 deaths. That's with only 2 counties reporting, there's about 3 other counties with workers that haven't reported.

Today was quite lame.

All I wanna know is if MLB is ever going to give money back to their fans for tickets already purchased? So far there have been no refunds for games that should have already been played. I guess the games are still technically postponed, which is ridiculous cause the games will not be made up, especially with fans in attendance. I have 3 tickets for Yankee game May 24 at Skankee Stadium. Was really looking forward to seeing a game there, even if it isn't the original house that Baby Ruth built. Anyway, what the MLB is pulling right now with their loyal fans in the midst of this financial crisis is enough for me to vow that I will never purchase one of their tickets ever again. I hope more do the same. **** them.

SPC removed most of north IL from the day 2 threat. Euro and RGEM both continue to develop some precip over the area, so I guess we'll have to see how things evolve.

18z 3km NAM continues to show expansive cloud cover that severely limits surface heating for most of the risk area Tuesday. Will be interesting to see if the HRRR shows this as well when we get within 36hrs. If the NAM verifies this one is DOA.
