Seeing some interesting dewpoint spikes and falls here over the last few hours. It's been as low as 56, only to quickly rise back into the low 60s. Thinking the less mixed area just to the south/west with their higher dews is advecting in on the southwest breeze, only to mix out again. Not a cloud in the sky today.

Might be mixing up into passing pockets of subsidence drying.

Temps starting 2 pop around the area. It this has been painfully slow to materialize.

Looks like tomorrow might be the last chance at heat for at least 5-7 days

The temperature is suddenly rising here as well even as the wind is picking up out of the southeast. Narrow band of upper 60s dewpoints moving through ATM making it feel pretty dang sticky, even though the temp has only risen to 86 or so.

Looks like Morris and Rockford have the warmest temps so far that I've noticed at 98. Wonder if there was an inter hour bump at one of those.

MLI so far has tied the record there at 93. Underachieved there once again too. Almost wonder if they relocated that AWOS sensor somewhere else, as they used to always be one of the warmest locations in the area.

97 in Kokomo...

Interesting. Looks like the high will only be 93 for LAF. Kinda surprised...temps just hit a wall despite tons of sun and dewpoints mixing out. Not really sure why but my best guess would be that temps aloft ended up being a bit cooler.

Grissom was just 94. I suspect it was KOKK being flakey as it is often.

We got very lucky in southeast Michigan.... It was a real comfortable day.

For the 3rd consecutive day, pretty decent bust in forecasted high temps (2 low busts, 1 high bust). Tomorrow looks to be hot...but will we be able to tie or break the record of 92F at DTW?

Friday:

am forecast high: 84F

actual high: 90F

Saturday:

am forecast high: 82F

actual high: 74F

Sunday:

am forecast high: 90F

actual high: 84F

Day I wish i lived closer to the lake. You heat lovers can have this stuff.

Even though temps were in the mid-upper 90s here today, without any real humidity it didn't seem bad at all to be out in. I know it's cliche, but the it's not the heat it's the humidity sentiment really does hold water- lol. I've experienced days in the mid 80s that were considerably more uncomfortable than the temps we had today.
