Have fam out there... every time I visit in the summer it seems like we're getting some kind of nice dryish canadian airmass coming over the lake with a couple diurnally driven high based thunderstorms. Pleasant. And on the high end they're capable of a decent tor here and there, including an F4 on the same day as the Wheatland tornado 5/31/85.
Then there's the always the chance of 6-8' in the winter in a week.
