  1. Dews have crept up into the 70s. That and the hazy/smoky conditions make it seem like the air is stagnant. Looks like a good chance at tagging 100 either tomorrow/Thu/Fri. Best chance looks like Friday, but can't completely rule out tomorrow or Thu.
  2. DVN has 100 in the point for Thu at MLI, 99 on Friday. We still haven't made a run at an 80 degree dewpoint yet, which is kind of unusual. Looking like there's a good chance we won't make it this year.
  3. Another 90 in the bag at MLI today, hit 88 here. Guess the cicadas are out but I have yet to hear one.
  4. Nice brief downpour just gave us almost two tenths with some thunder as well. Up to 3.65" for July now.
  5. Looks like mid-upper 90s Wed/Thu for this area. We've already had that earlier this summer so nothing too exciting there. Doesn't look like the heat will stick around very long.
  6. After being above 100 since early Sunday morning Death Valley finally dipped below 100 for two hours early this morning. Cooled off to 98 degrees, and then back to 122 this afternoon.
  7. The majority of the DVN cwa has been bumped out of the severe drought in the latest monitor update. Even some areas down to just abnormally dry now.
  8. According to the hourly obs from Furnace Creek in Death Valley CA they haven't been below 100 degrees since early Sunday morning when temps dipped to a frosty 94 degrees. Yesterday's low was 105, and today's low was 101 degrees- at least as far as the hourly readings. Spending a stretch of summer there would be as fascinating as spending some time up on Mt. Washington NH during the winter. The ob from 3am yesterday morning is just insane. 108 degrees at 3am!
  9. Got down to 52 here early this morning. Pretty nippy for mid July.
  10. Red sky in the morning asthmatics take warning.
  11. Looking pretty quiet again for the next 10 days or so.
  12. Got about a quarter inch. About 3.5" for July now.
  13. Had a nice little period of 40 mph gusts with the gust front a short while ago. That knocked the temp back a good 20 degrees. Now the heavy rain is moving in, and thunder is getting louder.
  14. Ma' nature always seems to remember. Probably why Minneapolis is drying out so much lately.
  15. I admit I'm surprised at how things worked out. The way it was going in June I figured we'd be a lock for a few 100+ readings this month or August.
  16. Yeah there's definitely a steep gradient from northeast IL to the QC. We're only about 25 miles northeast of MLI and have 16 90+ days. Nice soaker today between the two main rounds. Ended up with 1.77", up to 3.21" for July.
  17. Hopefully your area does well with the WAA wing downpours and nice comma head action. Sometimes heavy comma head rains are a bit under-modelled.
  18. Nice thunderheads to the southeast
  19. Yeah sure looks like we are go for a massive MCS moving through Iowa tomorrow morning.
  20. Picked up 0.01" from a cell that crapped the bed on the back doorstep.
  21. Pretty steamy out there this afternoon, as the dews have shot up into the 70s. Nice towers building all around.
