    @TheClimateChanger will like this one. Not only is this going the be the driest September on record but also the warmest, breaking a record that only stood for a year.

    Minneapolis is still at 0.06” month to date with nothing in the extended forecast. Pretty crazy to see a near total precipitation shutout during the warm season. On this date in 1985 Minneapolis saw 0.4” of snow, which is the earliest measurable snowfall on record for the city.

    Woke up to a line of storms that weren’t forecasted moving in from the west. So far they’ve missed mby (and the airport) by about 5 miles to the north.

    Local NWS is saying this will likely be the driest September on record in Minneapolis after we got skunked and missed out on the storms yesterday. Month to date rainfall is 0.06” with nothing in the forecast.

    The Good: Deep blue smoke free skies. The Bad: 90 degrees in Minneapolis today. The Ugly: 0.03” rain so far in September. It’s crispy out there.

    I probably won’t see another October like 2020 in Minneapolis. 9.3” of snow that month.

    The one good news about heatwaves as we move later into September is the dew points don’t usually creep as much into the uncomfortable category. Most of the corn is in the drying/dying phase by now. That being said this upcoming work week will feel uncomfortable after this recent pleasant stretch. Made it to 79 here today.

    I remember that day well, 0.3” at O’Hare. Earliest accumulating snow on record for Chicago. I was a student at Deerfield High School, and watched close to an inch fall throughout the day. Patches stuck around in shaded spots til the next morning.

    Haven’t checked many reporting stations across N. MN but I did see Hibbing registered a low of 30 this morning. 47 here

    Noticing some high altitude haze down this way too. Wasn’t expecting it

    August finished 0.3 below average in Minneapolis. June, July and August all finished with below average temperatures in the twin cities this year.

    Yeah no injuries or major damage. This is the second time they’ve had to evacuate the state fair this year.

    Ready for it. Just brought all the kids toys into the garage.

    Temps overachieving ahead of the storms and cold front today. We’ve made it up to 88 with an impressive linear line of storms getting ready to impact the metro.
  15. OrdIowPitMsp
    High of 76 today. Another near perfect late summer day in what has been the most pleasant summer I can remember in my 8 years living in Minneapolis.
  16. OrdIowPitMsp
    MSP gusted to 61mph a few minutes ago.
  17. OrdIowPitMsp
    Second round of storms just blasted through the metro. 61mph gust at the airport, expecting to see some tree damage on my commute this morning. 1.84” of precipitation since last evening.
  18. OrdIowPitMsp
    Sirens blaring, looks like some nasty hail west of town. Line is trying to bow out.

    Topped out at 91/77/105 today. While oppressively warm out there, this was a very short lived heatwave and we busted low on temperatures yesterday and today. Storms will be knocking on my door soon.
  20. OrdIowPitMsp
    We only got down to 77 for the overnight low. 79/75 and feeling tropical out right now.
  21. OrdIowPitMsp
    Low stratus hung around all day and kept things in check, we managed a high of 87. We don’t escape the swamp weather tomorrow for what should be our warmest day of the year. Current dewpoint of 75, highest of the year I believe.
  22. OrdIowPitMsp
    A few random maples are showing color here but I’m attributing that to stress from an urban environment. 2 day heatwave begins tomorrow. Mondays forecast of 94 would be our warmest temperature of the year. Long range looks real nice beyond Tuesday.
  23. OrdIowPitMsp
    Stayed in the 60s most of the day but the sun came out after the rain cleared and we made it up to a high of 73.
  24. OrdIowPitMsp
    Stratiform rain this early afternoon. Good slow soak by the looks of it
  25. OrdIowPitMsp
    0.74” overnight and early this morning. We needed it after a week of dry weather. I actually had to water the garden for the second time this summer on Tuesday.
