Chicago Storm Posted March 22, 2012 Author Share Posted March 22, 2012 ORD up to 75 as of 10AM. Thicker/widespread cloud cover is still a ways off, so another 80+ looks likely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mississaugasnow Posted March 22, 2012 Share Posted March 22, 2012 General question. Will frost and freeze advisories start earlier then normal this year now? example is next week could get into the 20s and 30s over a large portion of the great lakes. so would they issue the advisories almost a month ahead of schedule?

I believe so. Frost and freeze warnings are issued during the growing season, and that has clearly started. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daddylonglegs Posted March 22, 2012 Share Posted March 22, 2012 69F here..hopefully we can tag 70F and keep the streak going... Had sun for awhile this morning..n.ow clouds back in...really not seeing much rain...had a little overnight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chicago Storm Posted March 22, 2012 Author Share Posted March 22, 2012 Wed was also the 9th 70+ day at ORD, which ties the record for most 70+ days in a March (1945). Record broken, with the 10th 70+ day this month (and continues to add to the new consecutive 70+ day record). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hawkeye_wx Posted March 22, 2012 Share Posted March 22, 2012 GFS is trending toward the Euro early next week with more of a digging shortwave over the lakes keeping the returning warmth held back over the plains. Now it doesn't even have any of us hitting 70 on Tuesday. Monday is looking a bit chilly for the lakes region. At least it's not looking like a possible freeze around here Tuesday morning like it is for the eastern lakes and northeast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daddylonglegs Posted March 22, 2012 Share Posted March 22, 2012 Hawk- Keep the cold to the east... I really don't mind a stretch of 50Fs and 60Fs...still above normal and still perfect in my book. We don't need summer temps in March or April...get enough of that crap (hot/humid) in June/July/Aug Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chicago Storm Posted March 22, 2012 Author Share Posted March 22, 2012 ORD up to 80 as of noon, which breaks the 79F record for the date (1938). This is the 8th 80+ day this month, which ties the record for most 80+ days on record for April (1977). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wisconsinwx Posted March 22, 2012 Share Posted March 22, 2012 Is this real? A 20 degree difference between Milwaukee and Waukesha (57 vs. 77). May be a lake breeze, but I doubt it is that strong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tropical Posted March 22, 2012 Share Posted March 22, 2012 Is this real? A 20 degree difference between Milwaukee and Waukesha (57 vs. 77). May be a lake breeze, but I doubt it is that strong. You know, MKE always reads several degrees colder than other locations with NE winds in the spring. It is a horrible representation of the city IMO. I have 65.3F at my house right now, and Port Washington (on the lake) has 60.8F. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OHweather Posted March 22, 2012 Share Posted March 22, 2012 Is this real? A 20 degree difference between Milwaukee and Waukesha (57 vs. 77). May be a lake breeze, but I doubt it is that strong. In northern Ohio temps have slipped into the 50's along the lake with 80s just inland the past two days, so that is possible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Geos Posted March 22, 2012 Share Posted March 22, 2012 I see the lake breeze front on Its way. 50s moving into Racine now.73 here with an increasing easterly wind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
turtlehurricane Posted March 22, 2012 Share Posted March 22, 2012 Up to 78 °F, well above the forecast high. Becoming more and more cloudy so we should top out soon, but it could easily be above 80. Just another day of ridiculous warmth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thunder Road Posted March 22, 2012 Share Posted March 22, 2012 Another overperformer at vpz. Already 83 at 1:00. Fairweather cumulus has filled the sky in the last half hour or so, so I expect that will be our high or maybe a notch higher with an inter-hour high.

RobertSul Posted March 22, 2012 Share Posted March 22, 2012 I'm surprised no one's mentioned the 88 degree reading at Willow Run Airport in Ypsilanti, MI for the 1:53PM reading... maybe they'll give Michigan its first 90 degree March reading?

BowMeHunter Posted March 22, 2012 Share Posted March 22, 2012 Even being only 55 because of the lake it feels amazing in the sun. Normal yr we'd be out on the ice this march 22nd 55 degree day getting sunburned and slamming the late season panfish. I hope payback is a beotch next yr and lake michigan freezes across. Due for at least one super below temp month in winter. I'd sacrafice getting no snow next Dec/Jan to have the January montly departure be near the opposite of this March.

SpartyOn Posted March 22, 2012 Share Posted March 22, 2012 So would we say that April is looking much cooler than March? I don't think any month in our lifetimes will ever be as warm as March. So the answer is yes. Its just out of this world to think April could feature or top the king of all anomalies. If we have another month of +15 departures region wide it might be time to sound the alarm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stebo Posted March 22, 2012 Share Posted March 22, 2012 Currently 83 at DTW which breaks yet another record. We have an outside shot at breaking tomorrow's records for DTW/FNT which are 73 and 71. MBS might be harder with more of an Easterly component to the wind plus their record is 74 for tomorrow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
