You don't see so much of the USA have cool weather in June anymore

Toledo has had highs in the 70's since Monday

 

It's been great so far. But me thinks this rubber band is about to snap lol.

Solid MCV soaker today.

Nice high efficiency soaker.  Just blew by the 1 inch mark and it's pouring very nicely.

61 degrees midday with steady rain on first day of astro. summer is something I do like, but I must admit it also feels wrong. Checking Chicago-area climo for June 21-22, this kind of first day of summer happens maybe once a decade. The last four years have all had heat right around the solstice. The last year with a notably cool and rainy spell around the solstice was 2018.

Very lucky that I will make it to July with hardly any heat this year!

My rain total is 0.47", on the low end of guidance.  This is about as awful as a June day can get.  It feels like April.  Let's get back to warm and humid with storms.

2.17" so far.  Nice soaker.

EDIT:  2.37" now as it winds down.  Seemed a lot like tropical remnants today.  Pretty unusual to get this much stratiform rain in late June with zero thunder.  The past hour or so we had heavy drizzle coming down in sheets with the gusty ne winds.  Gave us an extra couple of tenths.

Still grilled. I don’t think the heavy stuff is coming for awhile yet.

Seems to be winding down, perfect timing to wipe out an entire summer day.
