  1. Freeze warning verified as we hit 31 here. Only made it to 33 at MLI and DVN though. Quite a bit windier than I thought it would be today. Have been getting gusts to near 40mph at times. There was even some blowing dust out in some of the freshly harvested fields while driving home from work earlier.
  2. This time last night the dew was 63. Right now it's 26. Have seen a thousand of these types of rapid air mass changes in my lifetime but it never seems to get old. Always exciting to see such a dramatic change take place. Temps have languished a bit this eve with the cloud deck at around 5k ft remaining overhead, but the back edge of the cloud deck is almost here. Should see our current temp of 39 dip down below freezing before sunrise.
  3. Definitely a reality check today with the first blast of legit cool weather. September was so summerly it kinda felt like summer would never end lol. Today is a reminder that Ned Stark was right, winter is coming.
  4. Temp and dew have both dropped about 20 degrees since 4am. Freeze warning out for tonight.
  5. Billings Montana has been enjoying a comfortable afternoon with temps in the mid 70s and some sunshine. Should be snowing by midnight, with up to 10" by this time tomorrow.
  6. Very weird to see snowfall forecast maps like this when it still feels like Summer just finally left us.
  7. Picked up about 3/4" rain this afternoon.
  8. Nice soaking there. 0.00" here, but looks like a shot at a wave of decent rains this evening. 3km NAM shows some pretty decent convection rolling through mid-evening. The surface low is just to the north, which has kept us in a little wedge of warmth and humidity. Still pretty muggy out there with 74/71 at the moment. Should drop a good 10 degrees by noon.
  9. As expected storms crapped the bed upon entering the heart of the DVN cwa. Still 80 degrees with a dew of 72 at midnight. Looking forward to the refreshing Canadian air later tomorrow and beyond.
  10. Awaiting our usual Iowa sloppy seconds later tonight.
  11. MLI tagged 90 today. Made it to 87 here. Quite the change from yesterdays 60s and cool rain.
  12. Wow, those are some pretty serious totals there. Hope those areas can miss out on most of the rain the next few days.
  13. SPC had 5% tor probs on the day2 for today's setup. The new day1 has 0% probs for tor. Wonder which one will be correct? Still LOL-ing at Broyles 10% hatched nader for north-central Iowa a few days ago that was quickly downgraded and ended up being a big nada.
  14. Looking forward to some more withering Iowa convection after midnight.
  15. I think Cedar Rapids/Des Moines/Waterloo have been in about 10-15 more slight risks this year than the QC. At least that's the way it seems.
  16. 1.38" since yesterday morning. Another 1/2-1" probably on the way today/this evening.
  17. We had our September in August, so now we're getting our August I guess. Needless to say I'm looking forward to October. Picked up 0.02" early this morning. Looks like 1-2" of rain possible tomorrow through Sunday.
  18. Was a pretty noisy late night/early morning with lots of thunderstorms passing through the area. Picked up 0.81". The yard is lush green, and rapidly growing like it did back in May/June. A far cry from the state it was in most of July and early August.
  19. Latest Euro shows 65+ dews returning tomorrow and lasting through at least the next 10 days. I'm ready for that kind of humidity to be over, unless associated with meaningful severe possibilities.
  20. Picked up 1.30" last evening/early this morning. Lost power for a few hours after midnight.
  21. Geos must be back home with all the action taking place up in the far northeast corner of IL lately.
