A-L-E-K Posted May 3, 2014 Share Posted May 3, 2014 Beautiful day here. 65° and mostly sunny. As usual, very breezy, gusts to 30 mph. By the way, the mushrooms are up around here. I found 63 this morning. whoa Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geos Posted May 3, 2014 Share Posted May 3, 2014 63-64° here right now. Cumulus field has filled in a bit, so I think we hit our high for the day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
weatherbo Posted May 3, 2014 Share Posted May 3, 2014 41 rain. had ice pellets twice in the past couple hours with the cold air aloft sliding in. Sounds like some good eating tonight, IWXwx! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cyclone77 Posted May 3, 2014 Share Posted May 3, 2014 Great day. Near 70 with some high-based pancake cumulus. Looks like Colorado. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daddylonglegs Posted May 3, 2014 Share Posted May 3, 2014 We had clouds and sun all day...actually perfect for installing new struts in a car... I love what years and years of road salt do to bolts on an automobile Still in the low 60Fs. Looking a lot greener around here, but we are still well behind normal. Going to be a huge morel season here if we get warmth later this week like the models are showing...18z gfs wants to put us near 80F on Thursday.

Geos Posted May 4, 2014 Share Posted May 4, 2014 Hit 64° today. +2° normal. By next weekend the trees will look a lot more alive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OHweather Posted May 4, 2014 Share Posted May 4, 2014 Had some pea sized hail and thunder/lightning this afternoon with a shower that rolled through. I guess if we're going to have a rainy and below normal weekend some pea sized hail and thunder aren't too bad. In SE Ohio the trees are well into the leaf out process...up in Cleveland most trees still just have buds. Tree pollen and associated allergies suck at both locations regardless.

Chambana Posted May 4, 2014 Share Posted May 4, 2014 That's kinda weird Hoosier you posted that, I'm currently on my way home from Saugatuck/Holland, and that fire was HUGE! Thought for sure it was a car on fire. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thought for sure it was a car on fire. My sister was in the general area (saw smoke but not the fire) while we were texting. I got curious and looked it up.

cyclone77 Posted May 4, 2014 Share Posted May 4, 2014 Overcast with occasional sprinkles here. Things have really greened up over the past few weeks. Most trees have small leaves, and many of them are loading up with seed clusters. I've already mowed twice. Even though it's been cool at times this spring, the harsh arctic wasteland that we had around here for months is a distant memory now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ukrocks Posted May 4, 2014 Share Posted May 4, 2014 Lower 80's here. Trees are fully bloomed and it looks like we may approach 90 for the first time Wednesday and Thursday. Just need a severe weather outbreak to make me happy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

While 100F sounds nice, i really like my 59F/light wind and full sun. I was actually sweating while sitting out on the deck (we were sheltered from any wind/reflection is pretty strong against the house). Trees are growing here right before my eyes. Everything is going to explode this week. The difference between today and one week from now will be huge around here. 5lb morels and 2ft tall asparagus...bank it Trout fishing and turkey hunting...

Yep, this is a great time of year as long as it's not cool and rainy. Typical temps are 50s/60s, and even on the warmer days, it's usually not too humid or too sunny thanks to avoiding heat ridges for the most part.

IWXwx Posted May 5, 2014 Share Posted May 5, 2014 A taste of summer coming according to Michael Skipper at IWX: GIVEN EXTREMELY HOT CONDITIONS SUNDAY UPSTREAMOVER MISSOURI WITH RECORD HIGHS IN THE 90S...CONCERN FOR MUCH WARMERCONDITIONS THEN THE ONGOING FCST HIGHS. THE CAVEAT IS IF THE COOLMARINE LAYER FROM LAKE ERIE WILL BE ABLE TO MIX OUT. KEPT HIGHS INTHE 80S WEDNESDAY...EXCEPT FOR LOWER 70S FAR NORTHEAST.CLIMATOLOGICAL RECORD HIGHS OF 85F-88F WILL BE APPROACHED THURSDAY.GUT FEELING THE ONGOING FCST HIGHS OF 82F TO 84F MAY NEED TO BERAISED A LITTLE HIGHER.

McDude Posted May 5, 2014 Share Posted May 5, 2014 So close, yet so far. What I wouldn't do for 90s... Need some sun for the flowers and grass seed. Everything is growing but kind of stagnant at the sametime. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wisconsinwx Posted May 5, 2014 Share Posted May 5, 2014 Chilly morning, still low 40s here with a persistent E to NE fetch. Meanwhile, St. Louis is likely to be 40F warmer today than it is here thanks to the boundary location. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cyclone77 Posted May 5, 2014 Share Posted May 5, 2014 Another nice day here. Gusty east winds, but lots of sun and temps already in the low 60s. Have 84 in the point for Wed and 80 for Thu. With the increasing moisture levels it's gonna feel like May out there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
