Geos Posted May 19, 2014 Share Posted May 19, 2014 Lol^ Insanely nice here too. High 71°. Everybody was outside today! Pretty soon humid air masses will take hold and it won't feel quite as refreshing outside. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daddylonglegs Posted May 19, 2014 Share Posted May 19, 2014 Yup...that is why days like this really need to be used to the max... once the humidity comes, its a lot harder to be comfortable outside of a swimming pool or AC. Models sure are starting to look toasty in the long range. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daddylonglegs Posted May 19, 2014 Share Posted May 19, 2014 A little stinker today with some rain possible and 60fs...but after that...yeehaw! 80F/73F/70F/73F the rest of the week for high temps. Awesome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wisconsinwx Posted May 19, 2014 Share Posted May 19, 2014 I'm just thankful it doesn't look like the kind of heat that will produce drought. Plenty of MCS potential around as of now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

geddyweather Posted May 19, 2014 Share Posted May 19, 2014 Chance of showers tonight and tomorrow across Nrn OH. Also, there is a slight risk of severe storms this Wednesday for the OH and mid MS valleys. Not sure if its worth making another thread yet, so I'll just post that here too. Otherwise, it looks like its gonna be beautiful all the way into Memorial Day weekend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
