frostfern Posted May 19, 2012 Share Posted May 19, 2012 Well, here it is May 19th and we've finally tied the all time March record high of 87 F set way back on the 21st. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chicago Storm Posted May 19, 2012 Author Share Posted May 19, 2012 ORD topped out at 92 today, which is 2F off the record high (94 -1977). Made it up to 90 here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GFS paints a slightly different picture with respect to a stationary boundary a tad further south. Kinda Muting da heat (barely) and bringing a possible onslaught of severe storms and mcs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cyclone77 Posted May 20, 2012 Share Posted May 20, 2012 92 here today. Only 89 at MLI but as I said earlier this spring I think they have issues with that site now. DVN never used to beat them on days like this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Powerball Posted May 20, 2012 Share Posted May 20, 2012 High of 83*F here at both Metro and City Airport. It's rare we get days like this in Detroit, not a cloud nor any haze to be found anywhere in the sky from sunrise to sunset. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tropical Posted May 20, 2012 Share Posted May 20, 2012 Two pictures. Watering the lawn. Everything is so dry. I don't think I've watered the lawn much in May ever ... gotta keep my tropicals moist so they thrive in the warmth! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wisconsinwx Posted May 20, 2012 Share Posted May 20, 2012 i have to say, I thought they would extend the slight risk severe threat further north and east today. Those storms that just moved through Minneapolis are showing the potential dynamics, even with relatively limited shear. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tropical Posted May 20, 2012 Share Posted May 20, 2012 classic. That stuff would never grow up by Geos house in Waukegan Port Washington was in the 60s all day today and I was in the upper 70s. What a difference 3 miles makes. I notice they leaf out about 2 weeks later down there than I do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hawkeye_wx Posted May 20, 2012 Share Posted May 20, 2012 00z GFS just getting even more aggressive with the late week short wave moving across the northern US, keeping the heat south. 12z Euro and 00z GFS are 20 degrees apart friday & saturday.

Climo would lean toward the GFS verifying? Wonder who wins. I have a sneaking suspicion the EURO is out to lunch on this one, but with the dry soils and warmer than normal lakes, who knows? This is a hard call to make. I guess let's see what tonight's 00Z EURO does. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

andyhb Posted May 20, 2012 Share Posted May 20, 2012 Severe threat certainly isn't as impressive on the 00z GFS than earlier... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tropical Posted May 20, 2012 Share Posted May 20, 2012 Wow 00Z GFS has 2m temps in the mid 50s for highs next Saturday. As much as I hate to say it, the cooler solution will usually verify this time of the year. It's easier for a cold front to scream south of me than it is to hold it up north of me.
