It is bone dry out there. November will be rockin' 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, the fall foliage is extremely poor around here this year. I’m so disappointed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geoboy645 Posted Sunday at 08:57 PM Share Posted Sunday at 08:57 PM Fortunately there are several indications that we are about to end up in a much more active pattern potentially starting next week. And with a still well-above average Gulf, could get interesting here for storms. The fact that, unless something stupid happens, we are going to have a Gulf like that with no TCs to cool it down before storm season kicks up is going to make things interesting for moisture availability the next couple months imo. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Starting with April every month has been below normal in precipitation at GRR including this month so far. The deficit starting with April is not as bad as some places but still a hefty 8.07" below normal since April 1. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Over here, we're only down .64 for the year and actually slightly above normal at this point in the month with 1.59 inches this month. You guys have definitely been much drier over there.

nwohweather Posted Wednesday at 11:18 AM Share Posted Wednesday at 11:18 AM Not looking good for a second severe season here. I feel like I live in California with this weather to be honest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was thinking this the other day when I realized its been basically cali weather here since August with little rain and beautiful weather. Being a snow weenie, I feel like this drought can mean great things for the winter as the pattern has to flip to wetter soon. Or it could go the other way and patterns die hard and it stays dry through the winter. Either way I'd rather it be dry than it being active and wasting precip during the fall. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Threaded the needle N and S big time. With no measurable precip until fantasy range on the models here's to hoping the precip rubber band bounces back with sub freezing temps and as snow! Buddah knows, after last winter, we are way overdue for a bomb storm this coming winter! Quote I survived the blizzard of 1978 in Cleveland, Ohio. I was a senior in high school. The front door was frozen shut, and the side door was buried under an 8' snow drift. We had to crawl out the living room window so we could dig out the side door. School was shut down for a week. The Ohio National Guard was helping in any way they could. We dug out neighbors. We helped each other. It was one helluva storm. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

michsnowfreak Posted yesterday at 08:10 PM Share Posted yesterday at 08:10 PM After the early start to the color season in late Aug/early Sept then a complete stall, along with lots of drying leaves, I was worried the color show would suck. But as always, it has exploded this week and should have a nice few weeks ahead before the winter sticks set in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sbnwx85 Posted 18 hours ago Share Posted 18 hours ago I think we can squeeze out a couple inches of rain this weekend. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian D Posted 7 hours ago Author Share Posted 7 hours ago Couple hundredths of rain last night. Pretty paltry. Temps look like they will drop next week to more avg with 45-50 on tap for highs. MN HS football playoffs start next week as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
