A-L-E-K Posted June 7, 2011 Share Posted June 7, 2011 12z runs coming in wet and active post wednesday with semi stalled front in the region. After a few days of heat before then, we'll need the rain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SEMIweather Posted June 7, 2011 Share Posted June 7, 2011 And it feels like the deep south in mid-summer too with nothing to show for it (yet). I'm hoping for a slower cold front passage on Thursday... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Powerball Posted June 7, 2011 Share Posted June 7, 2011 I'm hoping for a slower cold front passage on Thursday... Same here. The trend (ableit slowly) has been slower though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hoosier Posted June 7, 2011 Share Posted June 7, 2011 I'm placing my bets on us. These are our times to shine. Just cracked 89º on my thermometer. IKK out of control...97º at 11:35AM. yikes...IKK needs some fixing. One thing is pretty much certain...ORD will have a warmer overnight low.

Powerball Posted June 7, 2011 Share Posted June 7, 2011 Hmmm, either the outflow from this morning's MCS, a lake breeze or both is screwing us over for the time being. Temp actually dropped to 86*F at City Airport. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chicago WX Posted June 7, 2011 Share Posted June 7, 2011 yikes...IKK needs some fixing. One thing is pretty much certain...ORD will have a warmer overnight low. IKK has always been bad. Tie ballgame right now, 90 to 90. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wisconsinwx Posted June 7, 2011 Share Posted June 7, 2011 I feel like I'm becoming immune to the heat. For whatever reason, 90s don't bother me as much this year; at least so far. I think this is because I don't spend too much time outside, so when I do, I actually find the heat somewhat refreshing compared to 40s and rainy.

MN Transplant Posted June 7, 2011 Share Posted June 7, 2011 92 degrees here as of 11:20 AM If we break 100 it will be the first one in 25 years! If you are talking Mankato, they hit 101 on 7-14-95 (via coop records), but yeah it has been a while. The last June 100 was back in the epic 1988. Owatonna now 99, Mankato 97. Edit - Mankato now 99!

I would enjoy experiencing one of these before I die...as long as my car is in a safe place. TBH I enjoy hail more than tornadoes; I find it just as exciting and hail doesn't kill people.

TBH I enjoy hail more than tornadoes; I find it just as exciting and hail doesn't kill people. It can, although it's obviously not as big of a threat to life as a violent tornado. I've never experienced anything like that...I've seen an inch or maybe 2 and that's it. I wonder what the temps were like. Usually there's a quick, massive drop in temperature (30 degrees or more) when you get that much hail. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
msp Posted June 7, 2011 Share Posted June 7, 2011 100F or more at MSP since 1988 (when we had a bunch of days at or above the century mark, including a 105F reading)... someone can check my numbers, as these are just a quick text search in the data records: 7/31/2006: 101F (i remember this one well) 7/13/1995: 101F 7/03/1990: 100F which means this could be the first 100 in june in 23 years if we get lucky. edit: i think it might also be the second earliest 100F on record, as only one date before today has a record max above it (106F in 1934 on 5/31) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd love to even see hail covering the ground...my best was seeing sporadic hen-egg sized hail back in April, but it didn't cover the ground. Still awesome though.

kab2791 Posted June 7, 2011 Share Posted June 7, 2011 According to DTX updated HWO/Aviation Discussion, the lake breeze boundary may ignite an isolated severe storm this afternoon/evening. Right now the boundary looks to extend from DET northward through Western Macomb, NE Oakland, and SE Lapeer Counties. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
