  1. Next week is looking hot and humid over here. While the northeast US gets stuck under another cool trough, a strong ridge builds into the central US.
  2. Today was Cedar Rapids' first 80º day as well.
  3. I picked up another few tenths (0.40") today. That has been the story this spring... a few tenths at a time.
  4. All the surrounding personal stations show upper 70s to low 80s.
  5. Not surprisingly, DVN lowered our high by 5 degrees, to 68º. The endless conveyor of dense clouds from the east is depressing. It's normal to get a day or two of this, but not six. There are at least a few breaks in the clouds trying to pop across the region. Maybe we can get lucky and see a bit of sun later.
  6. What a dreadful week. The dense cloud shield puts a low-60s cap on our temp. DVN says 73º here tomorrow, but I'll believe it when I see it.
  7. It appears a wet pattern may be setting up from Texas up through the western subforum region. At least it will finally be warm. I'm really craving some thunderstorms.
  8. This weather pattern SUCKS!!! I've had enough of this cold crap. I should not have to be wearing my winter coat within two weeks of June. Models badly underforecasted this big cutoff low. The NWS is talking about the cloud shield holding over the region through at least Thursday, if not Friday. Ugh.
  9. Last week, models were showing 80º here by today. Instead, we are hoping to exceed the low 60s.
  10. Models last week had today in the low 70s. Instead, we have mid 50s and drizzle. The GFS keeps us in the 60s all week because of the cool pool aloft. The avg high is in the low to mid 70s now.
  11. Earlier today, Amphan was tracking more northward, well east of the Euro, but the track has been nnw for the last several hours.
  12. Much of the heavy rain this month has developed east of me. My May total is only 2.04" after 0.58" overnight. I have not had a single 1"-in-24-hr rain event this year.
  13. The Euro and UK now take the Bay of Bengal system a bit farther west, at least scraping the Indian coast with the center. The GFS still has a n/nne track into Bangladesh.
  14. Saturday appeared to be a bit of a washout here. Now, the HRRR and NAM don't bring rain in here until around midnight.
  15. I don't think northern Maine is tornado territory.
  16. The Euro now has the cool pool from the eastern cutoff low dominating the subforum region through next week. The 80s and humidity are gone, even for Iowa. Now it's low 70s with 50s dews.
  17. Models are showing a powerful cyclone hitting the northern Bay of Bengal coast next week. There has not been one in that area in quite a long time. That area used to be ground zero for huge death totals back in the 20th century.
  18. Same here. I picked up 0.43" of rain, but the totals fell short of expectation as much of the action developed east and south. There was no lightning/thunder here. Much of today's action should also be south and east.
  19. The euro is cutting off the eastern upper low farther west every run.
  20. While there will be significant warming into the weekend for our eastern members, models have shown a trend toward merging the subtropical system and the upper midwest system as they reach the mid-Atlantic region, where it parks for a while next week and cools the temp somewhat for our far eastern members.
  21. We were able to clear out later in the day and warm into the low to mid 50s with light wind. Tonight is the final night of 30s and Tuesday night is the final night of 40s. Late spring officially begins Thursday. I can finally start planting all the annual plants that have been parked inside the garage for days.
