TheNiño Posted yesterday at 05:46 PM Share Posted yesterday at 05:46 PM Tor warned here. I’ve actually lost track of how many we’ve had. What a crazy year Edit: Warning was cancelled before it got here. Nice little non rotating wall cloud rolled through though. I’d estimate 50mph gusts. Power is out. Was a fun one 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brian D Posted 22 hours ago Share Posted 22 hours ago Fog bank over the Lake with a chilly breeze across town. TBH, it has been a few yrs since I can remember so much fog, and chilly air at the 4th of July. Testament to the cooler, drier wx in May n June up here. June ended avg only because of hvy rains at the end of the month. It's those warmer rains that really help raise the water temp. It happens faster than just a warm Sun. Just like in winter, air temps alone don't just cool off the water, but the cold rain/snowfall mixing in the surface waters which includes LER/S precip. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cyclone77 Posted 17 hours ago Share Posted 17 hours ago 1.30" so far this eve brings us up to about 2" in the past 24hrs. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cmillzz Posted 17 hours ago Share Posted 17 hours ago Early July heat wave misses us to the east, and now it’s looking as though the mid-July death ridge will miss us to the west. Go figure. It’ll probably still be slightly above average, but no 100s any time soon. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brian D Posted 4 hours ago Share Posted 4 hours ago 0.10" of rain from shwrs/stms that blossomed along the ridges, and moved overhead during the evening. Isolated chances today with a breezy Lake wind keeping temps rather cool. They shoot off the fireworks down at Agate Bay where the ore docks are, and those that watch them there will need a jacket/sweater/hoodie. I can see them from my home if I want to watch. Not really into the fireworks thing anymore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Go figure. It’ll probably still be slightly above average, but no 100s any time soon. As expected. 100s are very hard to come for most of us without the perfect conditions. In most scenarios you really need drought-like conditions to hit that century mark. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just about 2 more months of summer wx for you guys left up there, enjoy the pleasant temps! Then it’s countdown to the 1st frost/freeze of the season!

Yeah just about ever 100 degree day that I can remember here came during either short term or long term dry conditions. Only exception was the 1995 heat wave which was on another level.

In most scenarios you really need drought-like conditions to hit that century mark. Yup. It doesn't mean its not hot out (a shame we have to preface that everytime so certain people dont freak), its just recognizing climo. Since records began in 1874, Detroit has hit 100+ the following years: 1878 1887 1911 1918 1930 1931 1933 1934 1936 1939 1941 1946 1952 1953 1955 1977 1988 1995 2011 2012 Thats it. It was an incredible stretch from 1930-1955, when 11 of the 26 years hit 100+. Only 9 years of the remaining 127 years did so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
