lol yep. <3 months till the date of the earliest measurable snowfall on record at MLI (Sep 25, 1942) so in theory it can snow in less than 3 months lol.
The past few days have been about as perfect as can be, with mid-upper 70s, full sun, fresh breeze, and dews in the 50s. Got down to 52 here this morning. Days are getting shorter!
Today's nearly 2" put us up to 4.12" for June. The dry period over the past 15+ days really didn't have much impact on the area corn crop. Most fields the corn is already waist high. Think with today's precip the area's crops are ensured to be about as good as they can be unless locusts or hail strike later this summer lol.
Flash drought cancel. At least for most of the DVN cwa. Picked up 1.49" so far, with quite a bit still on the way it appears as the LLJ will continue to fire stuff this morning, and then another round later this afternoon.
Severe warned cell died right before getting here but some nice thunder and light show. Got a few 40mph gusts and have cooled down considerably. Only gonna end up with a few hundreths of rain though.
Looks like tonight's Iowa sloppy seconds are even worse than I thought they'd be. They've really crapped the bed in the past half hour. Guess we'll try again maybe next week.
Not in our sub, but the parade of sups along I-80 in Nebraska is quite impressive. Also a gigantic sup in western IA blowing out some very high winds this evening. Looks like it's gonna rake a nice long stretch through central IA in the next few hours.
