Brewers Posted August 8, 2013 Share Posted August 8, 2013 MKX tweeted this: @NWSMKX: On August 8th, 1882 a snowstorm over Lake Michigan dumped 6" of slush on ship decks! Snow showers were also reported on shore. #wiwx I find this very hard to believe especially since MKE had a high of 92 that day. Lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hoosier Posted August 8, 2013 Share Posted August 8, 2013 Maybe it was actually hail? Snow is hard to believe. It'd be hard to believe a month later, so the hail idea is probably more likely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't tell me your ready for colder weather now! What do you want in exchange? Colder or warmer? Weather is nice don't get me wrong, just venting about the lack of variety this Summer. I'd probably prefer colder. I've been ready for Fall since July 1st actually. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wisconsinwx Posted August 8, 2013 Share Posted August 8, 2013 Hey Milwaukee folks. You all are getting a good weekend anchor and reporter by the name of Toni Valliere on WISN I believe. She was one of our anchors down here and has been down here for the last 9 years. She's a sweet lady, and I'm sure at some point they'll mention the Joplin tornado and her coverage of it. Thanks for the info, I'll keep an eye on WISN for her coverage. I believe there are a few new weather anchors in the area that have started recently.

harrisale Posted August 9, 2013 Share Posted August 9, 2013 Not as cool or dry as I expected today after the cold front passed, still made it to near 80, dews still just under 60 tonight. Some nice altocumulus overheard in the backyard at sunset. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wisconsinwx Posted August 9, 2013 Share Posted August 9, 2013 Once again the airport will come in with a misleading 80 or 90 degree plus high when almost everywhere else is in the mid to upper 70s. I say misleading when comparing to the region. This only seems to have become a recent urban heat island issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Compared to the area around ORD. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I say misleading when comparing to the region. This only seems to have become a recent urban heat island issue. The far SE areas have had full sun all day and with 850mb temps around 13c. So making it to 80 was kind of inevitable. RAC and ENW will probably crack 80 as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With the way LAF radiates I would guess there are a lot more low temps AOB average than say IND. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
