turtlehurricane Posted March 6, 2012 Share Posted March 6, 2012 Up to 45 °F on the roof. Of course I'm stuck inside almost all day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daddylonglegs Posted March 6, 2012 Share Posted March 6, 2012 Bumped up to 51F now... Winds still gusting pretty good. Des Moines is up to 67F... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geos Posted March 6, 2012 Share Posted March 6, 2012 Up to 53° here with gusty winds. Nice and muddy outside! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daddylonglegs Posted March 6, 2012 Share Posted March 6, 2012 Turtle- Wouldn't worry much about it. GFS says more days to follow like this. With the wind, it isn't that great anyways. Des Moines is showing gusts to 40...i'm gusting to 30 here... Would go down to the park, but the wind will be right off the Mississippi and its 34F water... Better off waiting for a day with calmer winds. At least this will get rid of any remaining snow cover. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hawkeye_wx Posted March 6, 2012 Share Posted March 6, 2012 Just hit 60 for the first time this year. Hard to believe it was in the single digits less than 30 hours ago. My backyard still has some snow, but it's going fast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

daddylonglegs Posted March 6, 2012 Share Posted March 6, 2012 62F...really does feel mild out there. Moved some ice that was hiding in the shade of the house. Melts like butter in the sun. Wind is still blowing pretty good. 65F might be doable at this rate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hawkeye_wx Posted March 6, 2012 Share Posted March 6, 2012 12Z EURO is a Tropical dream next week! Wow, no kidding! Euro wondermaps say low to mid 60s monday, then 70 Tuesday through Friday. We've plateaued this afternoon around 67. The wind is ripping, but it has helped melt the rest of the snow fast and is also helping to dry the soggy ground.

Chicago Storm Posted March 6, 2012 Share Posted March 6, 2012 ORD is up to 67, which is 3F off the record high (70 - 2000). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heck if the Euro is correct (likely overdone) then MBY ground frost will be gone by the end of next week & northern MI snows will be just a memory.

Geos Posted March 6, 2012 Share Posted March 6, 2012 How about this swing in Cedar Rapids Monday low: 3 Tuesday high: 68 or this one in Marshalltown Monday low: 4 Tuesday high: 71 That's the kind of swing you see in Denver and along the Front Range at times! Tomorrow probably won't be this warm with clouds and showers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daddylonglegs Posted March 6, 2012 Share Posted March 6, 2012 Coupon on these...going to throw some on the grill. What exactly does Chicago taste like? Maybe slam back a few Coors...i love the taste of the Rockies Looks like 65 or 66F here... It was fun. The ground really isn't wet around here. Even the shaded ice melted today.
