June 2026 General Discussion

I was fortunate to get 0.94" overnight and this morning because, overall, this disturbance did not drop the widespread 1-3" some models were advertising a day or two ago.  Areas from Iowa City east and south got almost nothing.  There was also zero lightning/thunder with this rain.

It had also looked like Friday night would be a good storm/rain event across the area, but now that appears to be gone south, so there are some spots in ec/se Iowa that will get nothing from both nights.

Promising squall line collapsed and dissipated over the western metro. Barely wet the sidewalk here. 

Yeah, I saw that. HS state track going on yesterday, and today. Finals are today. My gson has qualified in the 110m & 300m hurdles. THHS is in Section 7A. At state they compete within Class A. 3 classes in the state. A, AA, AAA with their respective Sections. Hopefully nothing will pop this aftrn down there at St. Michael.

70 midday with low 60's dew. Feels good. A little rain has helped with RH levels.

Looks like 2.25” here so far.  Gonna have to start mowing the lawn again.

Miss north and south with storms today. Officially picked up 0.09” last night at the airport but less imby. 
 

Dews crept up into the mid 60s today. First truly muggy day of the year here.

Just enough rain to keep things green here
