A-L-E-K Posted September 6, 2012 Share Posted September 6, 2012 Day 1-2 total QPF. Bullish. looks much better and is in line with the guidance i'm looking at. Should be a good day for many. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chicago WX Posted September 6, 2012 Share Posted September 6, 2012 looks much better and is in line with the guidance i'm looking at. Should be a good day for many. Agreed. Drought taking a nice beating here in Indiana, though too late for agricultural concerns of course. That being said, grass is green, lush, and growing out of control here.

Jonger Posted September 6, 2012 Share Posted September 6, 2012 I just noticed that Lansing, MI finished August 2012 at the EXACT same departure as August 2011 (+0.3). I got my power bill and noticed my power usage was down 20% from the previous August. I'm wondering how the heck this happened, I use a programmable thermostat and the settings are identical. EDIT: Bah, forgot I was gone from August 3rd through the 8th and had the AC off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

trapperman Posted September 7, 2012 Share Posted September 7, 2012 Especially when every truncated run seems to wanna jack a unrealistic PNA ridge. Cmon guys, I know as well as the next guy how valuable a 8-10 day prog is... that being said, 18z GFS holds serve. Look at that huge ball of cool goodness...

dmc76 Posted September 7, 2012 Share Posted September 7, 2012 According to that its very close to little to a lot of rain. Would not get to excited yet. Could be a east side thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tropical Posted September 7, 2012 Share Posted September 7, 2012 June 13th was our last day with a high below 70; it looks likely that streak will be broken in the next couple days. Almost 3 months. Gotta be a record for MKE. They always seem to log a day each month in the 60s during the summer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LizardMafia Posted September 7, 2012 Share Posted September 7, 2012 Agreed. Drought taking a nice beating here in Indiana, though too late for agricultural concerns of course. That being said, grass is green, lush, and growing out of control here. Really didn't miss having to mow the lawn. Since it's been growing again, it seems to be growing with a vengeance also, even a few dandelions showed up in the yard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geos Posted September 7, 2012 Share Posted September 7, 2012 Hmmm... I was hoping for a better rain shield then this! Doesn't look like a real soaker. Hopefully more rain will develop later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Geos Posted September 7, 2012 Share Posted September 7, 2012 Looking like more rain about to hit the area. Almost looks like storms are moving in - sky is real dark.

cyclone77 Posted September 8, 2012 Share Posted September 8, 2012 NAM showing mid to upper 30s west of St. Cloud MN tomorrow night. I'll be there tomorrow through next Sat.

Looks like some cool days coming up for the QC area as well. Maybe a few upper 40s the next several nights. Booyah. Little snippet from the hometown AFD. AFT WED...MORE SEASONABLE TEMPS WILL RETURN WITH A STRONGER SIGNAL OF A STRONG COLD FRONT MOVING THRU THE UPPER MIDWEST AFT THE 15TH OF SEPT. THE LATEST EC/GFS HAVE HINTED OF A LARGE RIDGE DEVELOPING ACROSS THE PACIFIC NW...INTO WESTERN CANADA. THIS RIDGE WILL ALLOW OR CONTRIBUTE TO A LONG WAVE TROUGH DEVELOPING ACROSS CENTRAL CANADA AND INTO THE GREAT LAKES REGION. THIS WILL ALLOW FOR N/NW FLOW TO DEVELOP AND THE POSSIBILITY OF MUCH COLDER AIR MASSES TO FILTER SOUTHWARD INTO THE UPPER MIDWEST. And yeah, it can "torch" after this happens. It's called "Indian Summer". Bring. On. The. Frost. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chicago WX Posted September 8, 2012 Share Posted September 8, 2012 Made it down to a very nice 54º at LAF this morning. Also, clouds/rain kept temps down yesterday, a high of 73º at LAF. Coolest max temp there since June 2. And as usual, south side of Lafayette wins the local rainfall contest (totals from the past 24 hours). Lafayette 2.2 S: 1.60" West Lafayette 2.2 W: 1.31" Lafayette 2.2 NE: 1.28" West Lafayette 5.1 WSW: 1.07" LAF: 1.00" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Firm and fast conditions are much more fun to watch, and the already easy course just got easier, although the rough probably just got thicker.

Firm and fast conditions are much more fun to watch, and the already easy course just got easier, although the rough probably just got thicker. No doubt. One of my friends went to the Pro-Am on Wednesday and said the rough had to be 6" deep, but they said on TV the crews cut it down to 4" on Thursday morning. Probably back closer to 5-6" after yesterday's rains. Regardless, should be another shoot out today with soft greens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
