  1. Another afternoon with dews in the 40s and a fresh east breeze. It can stay like this all summer as far as I'm concerned. Very boring weather from an enthusiast standpoint though I guess.
  2. These dews are crazy low for mid June. Dipped into the 30s over a large part of the sub, with some upper 20s as well as pointed out by madwx. Someone must have tripped over a cord at HRRRv headquarters. Model hasn't updated since Thursday.
  3. Temps overachieved again in this area. Made it to 88 here, 87 at MLI. Backdoor CF almost here. Only low 70s tomorrow.
  4. Temps overachieved today, as we made it to 81 here, and 83 at MLI. Loving these 50 degree dews.
  5. Stormed after midnight, and another round of showers this afternoon brought the daily total to 0.62", and the event total to 1.22".
  6. The 00z DVN sounding from very close to the center of Cristobol is pretty impressive. Near saturation up to over 350mb. photo uploader
  7. Up to 6" of snow has fallen on I-80 in southeastern Wyoming this evening. Considerable amounts of snow falling over the higher terrain of Colorado. 55-60mph northerly winds are blasting over northeast Colorado as temps plummet through the 40s after being in the 70s and 80s earlier today. Pretty insane to be seeing this so late into the year. It can snow in these same places in <3 months.
  8. 93 here and at DVN today, and 92 at MLI. Winds were southeasterly today and that explains why here/DVN was warmer than MLI. On days with southwest/west winds MLI is usually a few degrees warmer than both locations.
  9. Pretty oppressive conditions in Le Mars Iowa this evening. 118 degrees with a 118 degree dewpoint. Current heat index is 363 degrees.
  10. Getting some powerful cloud to ground strikes out of this anvil rain, just like last week. Long rumbler/house shakers. Storms dropped over 4" of rain west of the QC earlier in about 90 minutes. Looks like up to 3" of rain fell in the northeastern portion of the QC around the Hampton area. Definitely been an entertaining evening.
  11. DVN just gusted to 61mph in a severe thunderstorm. Nice light show to the west/southwest atm.
  12. Tagged 90 at MLI today. Made it to 89 here, which is the current temp, so 90 still possible. Another afternoon with boiling thunderheads in the skies. Seeing that never gets old. EDIT: Hit 90.
  13. The Euro has a little wet snow mixing in up at Bo's on June 12th lol.
  14. Pretty sweet thunderhead to the southwest from that nearly stationary severe storm west of the QC. Second severe storm of the day in the area, outside of the marginal risk zone.
  15. And don't forget, cicadas will be caking the trees adding additional mass/surface area.
  16. Finished with 0.87" here. 2024 will certainly be an exciting year. An even better total eclipse than 2017, and then the main batch of 17-year cicadas arriving. EDIT: Nice moisture convergence over Iowa. Mid 70 dews over southeast Iowa, whilst mid 40s up in the north-central part of the state.
  17. We're under a severe warning, and we're not even in the marginal lol. About to get dumped on yet again.
  18. Now that it's June 3rd it is now the 160th anniversary of the great Camanche tornado of 1860. The most infamous tor in DVN's cwa to be sure, and one of the deadliest tornadoes in US history. Hard to believe something like this happened in this area as almost all tors in this area are birdfart EF1 one-scan spin-up wonders.
  19. Euro seems to have the opposite problem compared to last year regarding temps. Last year it was too hot with temps, especially over areas that hadn't had much rain. This year it's under-doing temps by 5-8 degrees in many cases. Was off by almost 10 degrees over northwest Iowa today in areas that hit 100.
  20. 93 here, 94 at DVN. A few spots in northwest Iowa have tagged 100.
  21. They were right. Three locations at 97 degrees, while a site in western MN is at 99.
  22. HRRR brothers are forecasting temps in the mid to upper 90s over southwestern MN tomorrow afternoon. Looks like we have a shot at our first 90+ day of the year on Monday.
  23. Yeah I was surprised about the new day 2. I thought Jewell was one of the better forecasters, but who knows.
