cyclone77 Posted May 21, 2017 Share Posted May 21, 2017 Cool and breezy day with lots of clouds. Temps haven't made it out of the low 50s. On the plus side it's sort of nice that the wind is taking care of the bug problem. No mosquitoes or gnats today lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Harry Perry Posted May 24, 2017 Share Posted May 24, 2017 "General cold advection and upper troughing pattern develops as we head into Memorial Day. This should lead to cooler than normal temps again along with a risk of showers." - GRR AFD Just in case none of us have had enough CAA and troughing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Interesting how the debris signature shows up a few scans later east of where it was reported to have touched down. That's 3 tornadoes within 10 miles of us since early March. They're closing in on us lol. Luckily they've all been very wimpy relatively speaking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cyclone77 Posted May 25, 2017 Share Posted May 25, 2017 What a difference some sun makes. Was cloudy all morning and fairly cool. This afternoon temps vaulted quickly into the low 70s once the sun came out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hawkeye_wx Posted May 26, 2017 Share Posted May 26, 2017 There was a chance of rain this morning as a weak disturbance moved through, but it ended up being pretty robust. A few hours of solid rain with a very heavy downpour mixed in added up to 0.76". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cyclone77 Posted May 26, 2017 Share Posted May 26, 2017 Nice downpour and some CGs around lunchtime. Picked up 0.46", which brings us up to just under 4" for May. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well obviously, one's opinion of a month can be formed based on lot more than just the average temperature. Besides the fact that it's below normal temperature-wise, it's been a cloudier month than normal, there's been a below number of days with t'storms (never mind severe weather), above average rainfall and the only days with a positive departure greater than 5*C were the days with temps in the upper 80s.

Upper 70's are so much nicer anyhow. Flip side of the coin, in the winter I'm more happy at 25F than I am at 5F. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed, hot weather does suck. mid 70s to low 80s with low humidity is perfect though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Doctor Posted May 27, 2017 Share Posted May 27, 2017 PDS Severe Tstorm Watch with 50% tornado probabilities was issued earlier (http://www.spc.noaa.gov/products/watch/ww0280.html). Has this ever been done before? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hawkeye_wx Posted May 27, 2017 Share Posted May 27, 2017 The morning MCS dried up over central Iowa, but the remnant disturbance re-fired this evening and dropped another 0.30" on my yard. I've received measurable rain on 8 of the last 11 days. We aren't getting a ton of rain (4.53" in May), but we can't shake the constant clouds and dampness.
