cyclone77 Posted May 8, 2014 Share Posted May 8, 2014 Overachieved here today. Had 81 in point and hit 86. Warmest to date. Dews held in the low 60s all day so it actually felt a little humid relative to how it's been so far this spring. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Geos Posted May 9, 2014 Share Posted May 9, 2014 Cold. That would potentially be disastrous for the vegetation that's responding to this warmth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Powerball Posted May 9, 2014 Share Posted May 9, 2014 87*F BTW is a record high for Detroit, breaking the previous record of 86*F set in 2000. Pretty impressive, all things considered... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stormtrackertf Posted May 9, 2014 Share Posted May 9, 2014 Yep, record high at Detroit today. Was legit hot out. Is the 93 at MDW the earliest 90 on record? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chicago Storm Posted May 9, 2014 Share Posted May 9, 2014 Is the 93 at MDW the earliest 90 on record? No...Not even close. Earliest for Chicago is 4/10/1930 (90). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stormtrackertf Posted May 9, 2014 Share Posted May 9, 2014 No...Not even close. Earliest for Chicago is 4/10/1930 (90). Wow, I just assumed. At Detroit the highest we ever have gotten in April is 89°F, I think if we would have eclipsed 90 it would have been very close to earliest.

cyclone77 Posted May 9, 2014 Share Posted May 9, 2014 Pretty lame as it turns out for the eastern half of the risk area today. Crapvection festering over Missouri and it's associated clouds spreading over the area definitely helped COC block any chances for decent storms in the area lol.

cyclone77 Posted May 9, 2014 Share Posted May 9, 2014 You could make an argument either way whether the above is male or female. Still holding close to 70 as we approach midnight. Great night to sit outside and throw back a few adult beverages. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daddylonglegs Posted May 9, 2014 Share Posted May 9, 2014 Thunder literally shaking the house. Must be some very close strikes. Been like this for the past 40 mins or so... She/he is cute..no doubt about that and excited for the cool down . 18z GFS was chilly, but i still think frost is iffy.
