  1. Yep, may have to wait till the next 'event' lol. Oh well getting a great workout from watering every other night.
  2. 59 early this morning but already back up to 82. Dews still pretty meager in the mid 50s. Looking forward to Iowa sloppy seconds later tonight. Must be a hell of a crop of cottonwood seeds this year. Just cleaned off the AC condenser fins and they were pretty caked up with them.
  3. There's def a sense of confusion. Almost reminds me of game 7 back in 2016, did that REALLY just happen?
  4. Got down to 56 here, and currently the dew is 46. Not too shabby for mid June. My jaw almost came out of it's sockets this morning when I saw we were included in a slight risk for tomorrow.
  5. I'd like to lock that in, maybe a slight bump northeast.
  6. 86 so far here, but dews in the mid 50s so not bad out there. Gonna be laying a lot of rock down tomorrow out in front of the house so glad the dews will be quite low for mid June.
  7. Can even see that smoke plume from here, on the eastern horizon. Here's a link to that Furnace Creek in Death Valley weather station data. https://www.wrh.noaa.gov/mesowest/timeseries.php?sid=DEVC1&num=72&banner=gmap&raw=0&w=325
  8. Gonna be tough sleeping Wed night with that low of 97 degrees.
  9. Dipped way down to 55 this morning, but made it back to 90 this afternoon. MLI tagged 93.
  10. Was just out watering and u can def tell a difference in the humidity. Dews have now dipped into the fiddies
  11. That's gotta feel nice, still 68 here. Looking forward to the much drier air.
  12. Either got sandblasted by the dust or pressure washed by the torrent.
  13. Over an inch already at ORD and still dumping. More cells just northwest moving in. 2"+?
  14. Nice thunderheads way off in the eastern sky, dews starting to decline here after being in the low 70s all day. Next rain chance a week plus out.
  15. No it's an MSP. Sorry couldn't resist.
  16. The 12z Euro has dews in the low to mid 20s in parts of northern IL next Wed afternoon. Don't think I've ever seen dews that low in IL in met summer. That would be extremely hard to do with evapotranspiration kicking in hard during mid to late June.
  17. 2 weeks ago today on May 28th the high was 48 degrees. Seems completely unfathomable after the past few days with mid 90s and heat indices over 100 degrees.
  18. 95 today at MLI and also here, which is the hottest so far this year at both locations. Sterling hit 96. Picked up 0.04" of light anvil rain. Nice to hear thunder again at least. Also cooled down 20 degrees from earlier.
  19. Looks like a picked a wrong year to plant new trees lol. Hope they like well water.
  20. MLI hit 94 today for their hottest to date, hit 93 here which is also the toastiest to date.
  21. Almost 4" of rain fell near Mount Carroll late last evening from some very slow moving cells. Looks like our first mid 90s tomorrow and maybe Sat. Last night's Euro shows widespread 103+ over Iowa next Thursday.
  22. This time last year the COVID thread dominated the sub, this year it appears the drought thread will dominate lol. Next year it will probably be a UFO thread.
  23. In the past RFD did really well when drought conditions were present. I remember back in 2012 they were one of the hottest spots in IL till they finally got some rain and then other places like MLI and ORD were hotter again. As for LAF they seem pretty erroneous compared to surrounding sites on a consistent basis. Hottest day of the year so far here at 92, MLI/DVN languished at only 91/88 respectively.
  24. Looks like a good chance at no rain at all for the next 10 days. Hope to get under one of the isolated cells tomorrow, but it's looking pretty bleak. This is gonna be one of those benchmark seasons we mention in years to come, "at least this ain't like 2021" etc. lol.
