  1. SW of Duluth has a nasty warned cell. Good tornado sig there. Same with the one in the lower left near Brainerd.
  2. BWCA has a strong cell that's Tornado warned. Bad place to get caught in that. Lots of campers right now in that area. Radar dbz 70+ with the core of the cell, and a hook sig off the SW edge.
  3. Temps in town running mid 70's with dews in the low 60's. W of here temps low 80's with dews mid-upper 60's. Plenty of fuel for svr stms heading this way in a couple hrs.
  4. Svr stms popping to my W with strong hail sigs. Couple hrs, and they should be on my doorstep.
  5. Cleared off nicely. Been out soaking up some rays on the deck. Very light lake breeze keeping temps/dews at nice levels here in town. Low 70's currently (upper 60's on the shoreline) with dews in the low 60's at 2 pm.
  6. Batch of showers moved through here this morning. Expecting svr wx later this aftrn-eve, and could get a little nasty. Highs in the low 80's with upper 70's near the shore of the Lake. Stratus deck currently, but should break in a while. The stms in S MN keeping a cloud deck over the Cities. If that continues, might interfere with development for them later. Update: Sun starting to break through just as I posted this.
  7. Up to the upper 50's right now. Hazy overcast with the sun trying it's best to break through. If it does, a quick jump into the 60's before it wanes. Got around a quarter inch of rain. That'll help with tomorrow's stuff.
  8. Almost 1 pm, and rain just ended. Temps still in the upper 40's with overcast skies. Sat showing clouds trying to hang for a while yet. Might get lucky in a couple hours and see some sun. What a cold June day so far.
  9. OT here, but I think this could be a very interesting piece of research down the road for wx/climate studies. How light itself can evaporate water. https://news.mit.edu/2024/how-light-can-vaporize-water-without-heat-0423 Paper https://www.pnas.org/doi/10.1073/pnas.2320844121
  10. Time for summer. It's short enough up here as it is. As I mentioned in my Holiday forecast thread, hints of Fall going to be showing up a little earlier this year. 75-85 with low 60's for dews is plenty. Band of showers moving through this morning with scattered thunder possible later today. E winds keeping temps in the 60's today. SW winds tomorrow will feel nice.
  11. Just took a couple minutes to look up temps at these stns. Stout chill for June 10. I-Falls 33 2nd (1st 32 1908/58), Hibbing 32 3rd, Brainerd(arpt) 41 5th, Duluth 39 T 5th.
  12. Rain moving in tonight thru tomorrow, then much more summer like on Wed with a decent stm chance.
  13. Chilly across the Northland this morning. Expecting 60's in town with a Lake breeze under sunny skies today.
  14. Coming week looks better. Need warmer nights. That'll kick stuff into overdrive.
  15. Fallish our way, while early summer firmly in the grasp for our southern neighbors. You are definitely on the chilly side, even more so than me.
  16. Labor Day is a little early this year, and I'm looking for wet wx to start the weekend. By Monday, it should be a bit cooler, with scattered showers for some. Fallish pattern.
  17. Senior Citizens day looks interesting. Generally fair, pleasant wx. Could be a hint of Fall in the air for some, and possibly a tropical entity affecting the SE US.
  18. Friendship day in early Aug is looking rather warm with a threat of shwrs/stms. (Note: I accidently labeled July 28 as Friendship day when it's actually Parent's day. Made the correction.)
  19. Prelim data in for May. Another warm month in the books, obviously. Spring plenty warm, as well. 5 & 10 yr trend charts shown respectively for May, and Spring. Been a few years since we've had a season that hovered around 2dK anom or better mark for our sub as a whole.
  20. After a cool, cloudy day yesterday with gusty NW winds, and some scattered shwrs, should be a nice day around 70 on a dry W/NW wind. A chance of rain around sunrise tomorrow am, then scattered stuff in the aftrn possible.
  21. A shit ton of buffalo chips keeping the prairie grasses nice, and robust. Herds of millions roaming the NA grasslands. What a sight that would have been.
  22. 0.72" from shwrs/stms yesterday into the overnight bringing monthly total up to 1.85". Looks to be a bit warmer today, at least in town, on a SW wind with temps hitting the lower 70's. More shwrs/stms on tap later this aftrn. Lilacs in bloom now, and my local greenhouse delivered my annuals yesterday, so those will need to get into the ground. Ash trees here on my block are finally very near full leaf. They're always the last.
  23. Scattered stms moving in from the S ahead of the front. Fogbank on the lake with the warmer, humid air interacting with the cooler waters. Stronger downdrafts from stms love to push that fog inland on gusty winds this time of year, or it will get pulled in from the strong updrafts of approaching stms from the W.
  24. Foggy am turned sunny midday. Temps running in the low 70's away from the Lake, but much cooler on the shoreline in the mid 50's with a lake wind E/NE at 15 mph. Upper 60's here at the house. Expecting a good chance of shwrs/stms later this evening into the night. Just a note: Geese moving heavy N the last few days. Guess they finally think it's good enough to head to CA.
