Interesting how much more 90F+ heat Chicago has had this year than Detroit. Today was DTW's 5th day of 90, though 3 of the 5 were exactly 90F. Day....DTW 5/25.....90 5/28.....95 6/09.....90 6/10.....90 6/19.....95 I will note however, the yearly average is 17 days of 90F+ for ORD and 12 for DTW.

cyclone77 Posted June 20, 2012 Share Posted June 20, 2012 Definitely wouldn't classify this current period of warmth as a heat wave in this area. 90-92 degree temps with marginal humidity in mid June is pretty much a non-event. The 98 degree day back in late May will probably be the most impressive max of the whole year. We'd have to top 102-103 sometime this summer to match that level of impressiveness IMO.

That is like a 4-5" difference just through the first half of the year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aurora Posted June 20, 2012 Share Posted June 20, 2012 00z NAM and GFS try to re-ignite a squall line over head 21-0z Friday. I think you mean Thursday, and I could see that. Models seem to be slowing down the cold front timing somewhat. Unfortunately, I'll be working Thursday Evening, so I likely won't be able to watch it.

cyclone77 Posted June 20, 2012 Share Posted June 20, 2012 New SPC day1 is pretty lame for most of us. Now that tornado season is basically done hopefully we can get a nice ridge riding ring of fire type setup to deliver some severe to many of our regions. Deep moisture has been hard to come by in 2012 though, so this derecho season may suck as bad as the rest of the weather has since basically last Fall.

Chicago WX Posted June 20, 2012 Share Posted June 20, 2012 I didn't realize how much more precip that areas downstate average compared to us. That is like a 4-5" difference just through the first half of the year. They get off to a wetter start than us at the start of the year. For example, January - March normal precipitation. LAF: 6.29" HUF: 8.36" +2.07" IND: 8.54" +2.25" BMI: 9.36" +3.07" EVV: 10.51" +4.22" Looking at it a little further, everyone but SBN averages more rainfall than us through yesterday. Of course, there is a lot of missing data for LAF in the 1981-10 period (take for instance last year, there was at least 2.00" missing due to LAF crapping out)...so caution is warranted.

Chicago WX Posted June 20, 2012 Share Posted June 20, 2012 Who knows if Indianapolis sees another drop of rain this June. With that in mind, here are the driest January through June periods in Indy's recorded history (1872 to present). 9.80" - 1895 11.24" - 1934 11.42" - 1966 12.62" - 1925 12.91" - 1931 13.23" - 1987 13.52" - 1941 13.63" - 1915 13.65" - 1872 13.71" - 2001 14.05" - 1988 14.50" - 1954 14.94" - 1936 15.03" - 1911 15.07" - 1896 15.11" - 2012 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

turtlehurricane Posted June 20, 2012 Share Posted June 20, 2012 impressive rain I wish that'd happen here, maybe today is the day. Happy for the solstice, since that means winter is coming.

SpartyOn Posted June 20, 2012 Share Posted June 20, 2012 What a shocker the 12z GFS is fumbling with the placement of the SLP and ULL mid next week. Run to Run continuity is almost non existent. Lol. It tries to spin up a interesting feature in the GOM that merges with the ULL coming in from Ontario. That explains this mess partially I guess.

The GFS has a small pocket of 850 mb temps of 2C in Michigan on Tuesday morning. That would be pretty nutty for late June. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hoosier Posted June 20, 2012 Share Posted June 20, 2012 Unreal and almost certainly wrong. A fairly big deviation from the past couple of runs. Some considerable waffling with how deep that trough is. The GFS is so extreme though that it should probably be discounted at this point. Meanwhile, the new Euro has some blistering heat next week...showing temps of 110-115 in MO/AR. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BeastFromTheEast Posted June 20, 2012 Share Posted June 20, 2012 Unreal and almost certainly wrong. A fairly big deviation from the past couple of runs. FWIW 12Z Euro came in with ~6C 850 temps around the same time slot.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kind of like what DTX said in their AFD yesterday in regards to climo and the wack model runs of late. Adding an additional 2-4c is where I would place my bet on a final 850.

It looks like a combination of these two forms below... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Long_Cirrus_fibratus.jpg http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:CircumhorizonArcIdaho.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
