Heat indices still in the upper 90s to near 100 from central MN into western WI as of 10pm which is pretty impressive.
Lawn has really browned up over the past few weeks. Looks like tomorrow's rains will skip over this area. The mower is going to get a good long break it appears. Luckily the area crops have had a great growing season up until recently, so the ongoing dry spell shouldn't matter at all at this late in the growing season.
Yeah the Euro is doing pretty bad with temp forecasts. GFS must be rubbing off on it lol.
After several heat waves of respectable intensity it's disappointing to not get a 100. All in all looking like a forgettable summer with no 100 degree heat and pretty lame stormwise as well.
The Euro has 8 days in a row AOA 90 for this area starting on Monday. With it really drying out over the past 2-3 weeks I'd say our chances at hitting 100 are a little better than the earlier heat waves when soils were wetter.
Gonna be in Florida all next week. Doesn't look like I'm gonna miss much around here, looking kind of quiet. Was hoping for maybe a little tropical activity down there, but looks pretty quiet there as well lol.
