dmc76 Posted June 10, 2011 Share Posted June 10, 2011 Every Fall we hear "winter cancel" for no reason, and yes this goes for all of our very snowy winters of late...so its no surprise to hear "summer cancel" now. Those have become overly used phrases on weather boards lol. However, we should definitely see some cooler than normal weather. Tomorrow may barely hit 70, and normal high is now 78. LOL we do NOT need any rain. In what has been a nonstop year of moisture, 1 week of bone dry weather is not hurting, and I actually think the lawns are pretty darn green considering the heat of the past few days, sure some spots are browning, but its not nearly as bad as Ive seen in years past. Were only 3-6 inches (SEMI) above average since Oct 1st. Bark is worse then the bite, but I do agree that we dont need rain...not yet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hawkeye_wx Posted June 10, 2011 Share Posted June 10, 2011 Got another 1.45" of rain overnight for a 2-day total of 3.09". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BowMeHunter Posted June 10, 2011 Share Posted June 10, 2011 No heat wave in sight through June 20th on Euro.. Just be right and extend that to right before the 4th weekend and then bring in some firecracka heat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
River Card Posted June 10, 2011 Share Posted June 10, 2011 ECMWF if verifies, looks to cook us real good and dry us out also. We shall see however, even after the the heat recently, this shot of milder air does feel good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OHSnow Posted June 10, 2011 Share Posted June 10, 2011 Yeah, that big ull the models are showing dropping into the west coast next week is giving the models the next problem to solve. The GFS is the most progressive while the GGEM is going Torchetta by 144hrs. The op Euro is sorta whaffling and probably a bit to slow right now on development. We should have a good idea Monday if it will be our next "heat wave" or just a unsatisfying quickie that turns cooler fast and torches the east coast instead. Wouldn't a western ULL be good for heat in the central and eastern CONUS? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cyclone77 Posted June 10, 2011 Share Posted June 10, 2011 More rain approaching from the west out in Iowa. Doesn't look heavy though. Set my weather station so it uploads every 2 seconds to Weather Underground. Pretty cool. Put the link in my signature if anyone ever wants to check it out.

michsnowfreak Posted June 10, 2011 Share Posted June 10, 2011 Were only 3-6 inches (SEMI) above average since Oct 1st. Bark is worse then the bite, but I do agree that we dont need rain...not yet Yeah, but that 3-6" surplus is including below normal precip in Oct, Dec, and Jan. In fact, heres an interesting way to look at it. The Dec-Jan 2-month total precip was only 2.81", with snowfall of 27.2", so those two months totaled an impressive 1.61" BELOW average for precip, but 4.2" above normal for snow. Its owing to the fact that much of January's snow was powder with almost no rain. Since snow is what most people think of precip-wise in those months, it certainly wouldnt seem below normal, but precip-wise it was, and that negative eats into the positive departure since Oct 1st. Then of course Feb 1st came the barrage of very heavy snow, much of it moisture laden, and more snow and heavy rain in March, then very heavy rains in Apr/May. So if we forget about the fact that we are only 3-6" above normal since Oct 1st, heres a new way to look at it. Since Feb 1st we are about 7" above normal! On a side note, Wednesdays high 96F, Friday's high 64F. lol, an interesting June week in MI! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lots of lightning with these storms. As with other regions ..... people were complaining about "how dry" it has been the last week. DId they all forget March, April, and May?!?!?!

I have to get myself hooked up with the software and onto Weather Underground or Weather Bug one one of these days. Yeah I'm pretty happy about it. My only concerns are if a real big storm hits and the power goes out. That could interrupt the data feed until power's restored. I also put a graphic on one of the pages of my website here.

hawkeye_wx Posted June 11, 2011 Share Posted June 11, 2011 Had a bunch of little popcorn thundershowers move through late last evening. There were even some good lightning strikes a few miles to my north. The showers pushed my 60 hour total up to 3.22", easily the biggest rain event of the year.
