  1. If we can get through today, the next biggest threat to 90+ would be on Friday. There a disturbance moving through Thursday night, that if (probably will) timing changes on it, could make for a stormy day and hinder 90+ potential. .
  2. As I mentioned, the ENS support for prolonged ridging and heat is high... .
  3. Obviously an OP run, but the consistency in the GFS showing almost wall to wall 90-100+ temps for the next two weeks is something. Can’t even recall that in 2012. There is a good amount of EPS and GEFS support for the ridge to continue flexing into the region, so it might be on to something to a degree. .
  4. It’ll be close. HRRRx has handled the past several days well, and has a ~10F spread over ~10 miles, with ORD right there in it. .
  5. 91 ORD today. (11th) 89’d MDW and 92 here. Oddly enough, MDW has been running a bit cool on some of the warmer days recently. .
  6. HRRRx has 90-95 tomorrow across the metro, minus near the lake obviously. .
  7. Any time we are 89’d I’m annoyed, and yesterday was double, due to the streak potential. .
  8. 91 at ORD, 90 MDW and here today. 10th for ORD this year.
  9. Too bad the mid-lake buoy wasn’t deployed this year. .
  10. 89’d ORD, 88 MDW and here today. But of a lake influence prevented 90. .
  11. Some 90+ info for Chicago, given the pattern we are in and will be in for the foreseeable future... 90+ Days as of June 30th... ORD: 9 (94 highest) MDW: 6 (94 highest) MBY: 9 (95 highest) 1981-2010 average through June 30th for Chicago is 4.5 days and climate history average is 4.2 days...So while not record breaking or even close to it for now, this year is already running well above average for 90+ days.
  12. Summary of this new pattern, which could continue through the weekend of the 11/12th... .
  13. Wrong. Some of those issues can still come about in people who control it properly. .
  14. Because Orangeman isn’t taking it seriously. That is the main problem. .
  15. You’ve really fallen to low hanging fruit levels, haven’t ya. .
  16. Today looks like a similar threat as was seen on Saturday. Isolated severe, but nothing widespread...and with more widespread rain and general t'storms.
  17. Classic Broyles. He seriously has no business having a job at SPC.
  18. I just like to give everyone a nickname.
  19. Fatman did some good things and some bad things during this stretch in IL...but the requirement of masks and slow re-opening seems to be working for now. Shall see how numbers look come August, after restrictions really relax heading into early July. .
  20. The ‘rona is old news. Riot watch now. .
  21. Yea, tomorrow definitely has potential across E IA and N IL. SPC holding at marginal is comical, but par for the course with them. Unfortunately, I’ll still be out of town for this one.
