June ended up 0.5F above average in Minneapolis. Pretty up and down month. 3 days above 90 with a monthly high of 96, but what stands out to me is the high of 57 on the 13th.

High of 85 today. Fell well short of the forecasted 90.

High of 66 yesterday with 0.76” of rain. Warming trend begins today.

We’ve been stuck at 63 all day here. Glad to be north of the front. Two days in the 90s was enough for me. Our two day rain total will probably be somewhere around 3” once all is said and done in Minneapolis.

Monsoonal rain for the past hour+ here.

High of 72 with 1.68” of rainfall. Not a single rumble of thunder up here, much different atmosphere in southern Minnesota today.

Over an inch of rain today so far. Eating away at our year to date deficit

Didn’t look very hard, best I could find was Great Falls Montana with a daily departure of -19F on the 22nd.

Ready to get soaked at work. Geotechnical report on the Eagan high school athletic fields due Friday and I’ve got soil to look at. Bring on the rain.

Dew point has fallen to the upper 40s here. Oh what a feeling

79/66 currently with summertime cumulus. Big difference from this time yesterday when we were 91/74.

It’s a kiddie pool and splash pad kind of day. These are the good old days.

When we were still at 90 at midnight I thought there was a chance of breaking some records. Madison Minnesota is usually the warmest city in the Twin Cities WFO. Low of 86 there.

96 today. Forecast was 98 so I guess a bust low. Still 91 at 9:30pm Both MSP and STC hit record high temperatures on Saturday, June 21, breaking the previous records of 95 set in 1910. The exact values for each are still being verified, but they reached at least 96. Record high temperatures are possible again on Sunday with hot/humid air in place and the warm front remaining to the north of our coverage area. *** Record Highs Sun June 22 *** Location | Forecast | Record ------------------------------ MSP | 97 | 98 (1911) STC | 95 | 98 (1911) EAU | 95 | 99 (1995)

From the NWS The forecast low of 83 at MSP would be the second warmest low on record, and 3 degrees short of the all-time record of 86 from the Dust Bowl era.
