  1. Our hopes for anything here will come down to how the Iowa stuff evolves later today/this evening. If it craps the bed before reaching here it looks like it could be another nothingburger here, as tomorrow everything redevelops off to the east.
  2. Dews have mixed down below 45 in MLI with yet another 90+ day in the bag. Insanely low dews for late June.
  3. Just need to fill in those mini screw zones over western IL and we're golden.
  4. I loved the drought/heat of 1988 as a kid. Went swimming about every day.
  5. Yeah that's normally not so good of a map but compared to the past 40 it's lookin' swampy.
  6. It's been hot here with 15 90 degree days, but most of the time the dews have been extremely low so it doesn't seem like a hot summer at all.
  7. Decent chance we get a decent rain later Saturday night and/or Sunday. Def the best chance at more than a few tenths of an inch of rain in what will be over 40 days by then.
  8. If it's gonna happen Cedar Rapids will be in on it.
  9. 93 at MLI and here today. Dews were up near 60 today so felt warmer than yesterday. Lots of bare yards around here from the void left from removing dead ash trees the past few years. The tree farm industry and tree removal companies making bank courtesy of the little bugs.
  10. Lately all I do is just click on the precip map total at day 10. Not much else to look at it anymore.
  11. I'm amazed at how well the corn still looks around here. It may be a bit behind in height, but it is still green and growing. This modern era frankencorn must have roots that go down 10 times deeper than normal corn, that's the only way it's getting any moisture for growth/life.
  12. Hit 93 at MLI, 91 here. Dews mixed down to near 50 so it actually feels cooler than the temp reading.
  13. ^ Looks like a monsoon compared to the past 30 days of Euro runs.
  14. Both MLI and here sit low in the Rock River valley so we usually end up a few degrees higher on sunny days. Also get several degrees colder on calm/clear nights.
  15. Today will be the 13th 90+ day at MLI. Looking ahead there may only be one day with sub 90 through the end of the month, so we should be at 21-22 days total by the end of June.
  16. Non-stop 90s for the foreseeable future now. Hope to get some rain in about 10 days. Hopefully another 0.06" soaker.
  17. Shutout cancel here, did manage to scrape up 0.06" from a micro cell. Up to 0.18" for June!!!
  18. As expected, 0.00" overnight/early this morning. Iowa complex crapped out right around the Mississippi River as modeled.
  19. How's the corn holding up in back? That corn on the left is sweet corn from neighbors garden. It's doing so so with help from lots of watering. The farm field behind and on the right has beans this year. Def growing slower than normal but at least it still mostly looks green, for now.
  20. This is what 0.24" of rain in the past 34 days looks like lol. Getting pretty fried looking out there. Just trying to keep these relatively newly planted trees (2020 & 2021) alive through this bad dry spell with plenty of watering.
  21. Luckily have become conditioned to prolonged boring periods of weather after the past few boring winters.
  22. Rain punted till day 10 again lol. Someday that day 10 rain will get here. Some day.
