  1. The slasher (Thompson) from SPC upped tor probs to 5% over the tri-state area of IA/MN/WI for today. Guess things are looking better for naders in that area. EDIT: I always used to joke that Thompson (who's prob my favorite SPC forecaster) is the "slasher" as he used to always come in and "trim the fat" away on outlooked areas that were usually overdone, and sometimes over categorized lol. Seeing him actually upgrade probs was usually a very good sign.
  2. The sensor at MLI may be crapping the bed. Their temp dropped from 88 to 80 in 7 minutes for no apparent reason. Back in the soup here with dews above 75. Heat index is hovering around 100 from time to time.
  3. Tough call for here, as we're on the border of icy and flaky, and numb. Hmmm.
  4. Was nice to see deep blue skies today, seems like it's been forever. More smoke rolling in from the north now though.
  5. A raging sleet storm from IKK up into far northwestern IN. Great sleeping weather last night/early this morning. Got down to 52 here.
  6. If this keeps up the NWS will have to add a dense smoke advisory to the list of headline choices lol.
  7. Will finish July with 5.51" of rain. Oops my bad, meant to post in July thread.
  8. Dewpoint reached 79 today at both MLI and here. We've since slipped back to a more comfortable 74 and 75 though lol. MLI hit 92 today.
  9. Yeah I'm quite pleased to say the least. Nearly continuous thunder the past few hours. Point only had a 20% chance of rain lol. Up to 1.76" and still raining. EDIT: 1.92" now
  10. Many locations in the DVN cwa have dews between 80-84 right now. MLI officially at 80, across the river in Clinton they have 83. Just went out and watered and just doing that caused me to sweat profusely. Very sultry out there with zero wind as well.
  11. Dew reached 80 as expected, and temp peaked at 91. Several sites around have had dews in the 81-82 degree range. Usually when you get a day like this there's a good chance at storms that night, but all this humidity is pretty much a waste for this area.
  12. Another round of AOA 80 degree dews look likely this afternoon. Heat indices should approach 110 again.
  13. Looking forward to seeing the anvils in the northeastern sky tomorrow afternoon.
  14. Yeah I'm ready for Fall/Winter. Definitely the quietest year for thunderstorms (IMBY) I've ever seen in my 44yrs on this planet. Just getting garden variety convection has been a huge struggle all year.
  15. Apparently Lake Oroville will drop low enough that the hydroelectric plant will likely have to be shut down for the first time due to low lake levels in the next few weeks.
  16. Temps are up near 90 this afternoon but it feels considerably more comfortable out there compared to yesterday when we had dews near 80. Dews have mixed down into the lower 60s this afternoon.
  17. As expected storms blew up just east and southeast this afternoon. At least it was nice to see cu billowing upward on it's way to give relief to areas downwind.
  18. Currently 91/79/107 here. Dew hit 80 briefly earlier. Some locations around have 80 degree dews atm. At least there's a breeze out there today, if not it would be pretty stifling.
  19. 90 here and at MLI today. Looks like a slight chance for a storm tomorrow, but best odds are east and southeast of this area.
  20. 89'd at both MLI and here today. Peak heat index reached 99 here.
  21. MSP currently with 4 miles in smoke, while nearby Eden Prairie is at 2 miles.
  22. Smoky skies today. Sure been a lot of smoke the past several years. Maybe that's why our Decembers have been sucking. JK
