Big MCS over by Chicago and FFE down south. Chicago wave according to SPC should turn south but we'll see. Warned for 60 right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spartman Posted August 12 Share Posted August 12 Still at 66 as of 1pm. Highest we got was 68 at 7am. The record low maximum temperature is 65 in 1964. With that superMCS going on, may very well be stuck in the mid to upper 60s the entire day today. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ll take the cool temps but would have loved to have seen some of the rain and storms even tho Marquette county isn’t too terribly dry but other spots are. Looking forward to a wild autumn and winter, warm or cold. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Greenwald Posted August 15 Share Posted August 15 PWAT is about as high as it gets. No rain though, mowed today. Tomorrow should be the last day of this pattern. Signals are showing maybe a dry last 1/2 of August. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just north of Champaign in Rantoul there was a bullseye of 10.5” of rain. My rain gauge had 7.5”, this on the heels of a tornado that swept through Tuesday, quite the August pattern.
