Chicago Storm Posted August 9, 2011 Share Posted August 9, 2011 Today is the 26th consecutive 80+ day at ORD, pushing us into 9th. Wednesday still looks to be the biggest threat to end the streak. ORD hit 80 today making it the 27th consecutive 80+ day, bumping us up to 7th on the list. It still looks likely that tomorrow will only make it into the upper 70's, ending the streak. 1. 46 days - 7/2-8/16/2010 2. 42 days - 6/27-8/7/55 3. 34 days - 8/10-9/6/95 4. 32 days - 7/16-8/8/83 5. 30 days - 6/20-7/19/21 6. 29 days - 7/21-8/18/88 7. 27 days - 7/14-8/9/2011 8. 27 days - 7/11-8/6/99 9. 27 days - 6/18-7/14/66 10. 25 days - 7/22-8/15/2007 11. 24 days - 7/23-7/26/2005 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cyclone77 Posted August 9, 2011 Share Posted August 9, 2011 Today makes the 45th day in a row at or above 80 here and at MLI. Last sub 80 was June 25th. Looks like tomorrow ends it though, with upper 70s expected. I have no idea where that ranks at MLI, as I haven't seen them mention it yet.

Thundersnow12 Posted August 9, 2011 Share Posted August 9, 2011 another nice day here and had a suprisingly nice view of those storms to the east earlier today from work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OHSnow Posted August 9, 2011 Share Posted August 9, 2011 Should be some scattered instability showers and thunderstorms and maybe areas of more persistent lake effect rain tomorrow in northeast Ohio. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpartyOn Posted August 9, 2011 Share Posted August 9, 2011 Going to be interesting to see if the ridge advertized by the Euro comes into play. The 15th -20th look like a wild card and could be the last prolonged heat wave. Anyone have any thoughts here? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cyclone77 Posted August 10, 2011 Share Posted August 10, 2011 When I was out mowing around 7:30 this evening a large towering cumulus cloud passed over and dumped some large rain drops on me as I was mowing. Was totally unexpected as nothing had been showing up on radar. I thought it was bird crap at first, but then the large drops increased in frequency and it was obvious it was actually raining/sprinkling. Not really a big deal, but it was kind of interesting at the time lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chicago WX Posted August 10, 2011 Share Posted August 10, 2011 Tomorrow morning should be our first sub 60º low temp since July 5th (59º). Point and click has a low of 54º, which would be the coolest at LAF since June 12th (53º). Free AC FTW. IND has had only 2 low temps below 60º this summer (6/12 and 6/25). Tomorrow should make the 3rd. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trent Posted August 10, 2011 Share Posted August 10, 2011 Today might finally snap Detroit's record breaking 45 days at or above 80. Impressive streak. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cyclone77 Posted August 10, 2011 Share Posted August 10, 2011 MLI hit 79 today, which ends the consecutive 80+ streak at 45. Did hit 80 here at the house though. Perfect day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chicago WX Posted August 10, 2011 Share Posted August 10, 2011 79º at LAF. First sub 80º high in over a month...July 1st (74º) to be exact. Makes the 80º+ streak of 39 done with for here. Stellar day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hoosier Posted August 11, 2011 Share Posted August 11, 2011 80 degree streak at IND may be in some jeopardy tomorrow. I lean toward them squeaking it out but it will be close. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chicago WX Posted August 11, 2011 Share Posted August 11, 2011 80 degree streak at IND may be in some jeopardy tomorrow. I lean toward them squeaking it out but it will be close. 81º yesterday. Going to be close again today. If not today... ...I like Saturday or Sunday for the 80º streak breaker. Saturday especially looks like a wet day at this point. Much needed wet day at IND, though parts of Indy metro have gotten good rains lately. The airport not so much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trent Posted August 11, 2011 Share Posted August 11, 2011 Just 70 for the low here last night, thanks to the bath tub of Lake Erie. It's incredible though how a low of 70 with a dewpoint of 52 feels leaps and bounds cooler than 70 coupled with a dewpoint of 70! I'm surprised there is no weather formula that takes this into effect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chicago WX Posted August 11, 2011 Share Posted August 11, 2011 A few sites in Indiana within shouting distance of sub 50º low temps this morning. Certainly nothing earth shattering, but compared to the seemingly bountiful number of low temps of >70º this summer...a nice reprieve.

Trent Posted August 11, 2011 Share Posted August 11, 2011 On the flip side, the winter reverse of these record breaking 80+ day streaks would be a ~45 day stretch somewhere between Dec and Feb where the high temp was always above freezing.
