I mean there's stretches where we debate how humid it was when dews are averaging in the 60s, but when we're arguing 48 vs 70 seemingly every day it becomes hard to read and a waste of effort. It's finally coming this time though. I'm ready for a little 90/70 for a few days. It makes me feel alive.

That was almost too easy

This is his favorite summer weather in years. But sometimes we all need a break from the bad science.

This is why Will left the board.

Give it 2 hours

We tried to tell'em

Where does beer rank on the health scale?

Some have been installed since April. Such a shame to have the windows closed over the last 3 months.

I said low 50s and maybe some 40s. ORH was 51F last hour and FIT is 49F. It's also 945am and we need to mix out a bit. Friggin weenie.

Like I just said, that dry air let the afternoon temps be higher than they would have been if there was more moisture in the air. If we had these airmasses in a wet pattern we're probably talking a well below normal June given how low wetbulbs ran, but that's one of those "if my aunt had balls..." arguments.

As you know the "desert" airmasses giveth and taketh. Cooler nights and warmer days. In the end the means are what they are and then the humidity levels and amount of sun are the punctuation marks on the perceived sensibility. Creep up that humidity and we lose the cool nights, but it also takes more "work" to reach those higher temps. But yeah, we're finally choking off that supply of cP air in QB at our latitude. Looks like the CAR region is still far enough north for glancing shots and that always leaves us with the potential to sneak in some near sfc backdoors (not necessarily temp but also humidity drops) cutting in underneath the upper level ridge. So it's a regime change from our perspective, but I think it's more of a seasonal progression of the same pattern with everything trending a bit north...or at least the ridge waxing and the QB trough waning.

Hope you enjoy the low dews today.

EPS is deep summer right through d15...maybe a mild down mixed into the mean there, but overall warm to hot.

Before you know it it will be March again and the dews will start dropping.

Just some some ash near work...same deal. It must be a bumper crop season in their DNA.

Min 54.9F Another BN morning. Times will be a'changin though.

lol...you won't be missing heat in Omaha.

Yeah looks like black walnut to me. If you decide to plant some be careful what you plant them near because they are high in juglone. I was growing some in pots here last year, but a vole killed all but one of them and even that one had to sprout back from the base.

Euro is a soaker for cne/nne tue morning. Lock that in.

We’re doing a good job of missing these so far.

Not really. Front comes through this evening. Only "cooler" in the sense that there's abundant cloudiness. The dews drop tonight into tomorrow, but we'll have sun and warmth.

GFS promptly soaks those "severe" drought areas.
