turtlehurricane Posted June 29, 2012 Share Posted June 29, 2012 Very interesting area of very low dews over southwest WI. Many areas in the mid to upper 40s. You look to be right near the edge of it as the dew ranges from 46 on the west side of Madison to 61 on the east side. I'm thinking these low dews are due to subsidence on the backside of the front, compressional warming and drying occurs most vigorously in a relatively thin band behind fronts. That's a serious drop-off! Still in the upper 60s here. Sky is really hazy this evening. Did Madison break the record? We tied the record of 97 °F set in 1931.

Hoosier Posted June 29, 2012 Share Posted June 29, 2012 Looks like we won't put together a streak of 100's like areas to our south but no real end in sight to the 90s. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geos Posted June 29, 2012 Share Posted June 29, 2012 Down to 78°/70°. I have near steady highs around 86° in the next 5 days with lows around 70°. Thinking with the dry air/ground the lows might be a bit lower. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cyclone77 Posted June 29, 2012 Share Posted June 29, 2012 No majorly hot days like today in the forecast, but looks like a long string of 90-95 type days here. With the surface boundary waffling around the area we may get a day or two of underachievement from clouds/precip. Pretty much impossible to tell how much if any that will factor in at this point though. I'm sure at some point in July we'll see the heat dome make a move and give some of us further north another chance at a 100. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cyclone77 Posted June 29, 2012 Share Posted June 29, 2012 Amazing drop in humidity over southern Wisconsin tonight. Dews were in the 70s there this afternoon, and have since crashed into the lower 40s. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
turtlehurricane Posted June 29, 2012 Share Posted June 29, 2012 Nice chill in the air this morning, 58 °F at the airport (2° below normal). Looks like just south of here didn't get much below 70, so we just got into the cooler air in Madison. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
turtlehurricane Posted June 29, 2012 Share Posted June 29, 2012 Wind holding calm in the SW quadrant of Wisconsin, still fighting off the inversion from overnight. We're not going to have a morning like this for a long time if the NWS forecast is right. Next cool shot on the GFS is all the way out on 7/9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cyclone77 Posted June 29, 2012 Share Posted June 29, 2012 Huge drop in humidity this morning. Dew of 59 currently. A far cry from the upper 70s yesterday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hawkeye_wx Posted June 29, 2012 Share Posted June 29, 2012 Broken record continues. Scattered storms this morning, some with some pretty heavy rain, have all missed my neighborhood. I barely got enough rain to wet the pavement. Cyclone is getting hit pretty good now, so at least someone is getting something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brewers Posted June 29, 2012 Share Posted June 29, 2012 Currently 80/53. The clouds from the thunderstorms to the south has made this into a pretty decent day. Hopefully we can get some rain this weekend Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hoar_Frost Posted June 29, 2012 Share Posted June 29, 2012 After my 0.23" -- about a day's worth of evaporation at this time of year -- with the developing MCS earlier, skies cleared gradually this afternoon to their current mostly-sunny condition, with a bit of haze and a few strands of cirrus. Temperatures have rebounded nicely, 88 degrees at 4 PM IMBY and 86 at 2052z at DPA, with the possibility remaining that a third day in a row with a temperature of 90 degrees or higher will be realized, especially IMBY.

IWXwx Posted June 30, 2012 Share Posted June 30, 2012 Interesting post from NWS chat: The climate report for Fort Wayne is intentionally missing for precipitation. The ASOS did not accurately measure the precipitation and the backup gauge blew over during the storm spilling the contents. We hope to have a precip report by tomorrow morning.

I didn't want to clutter up the severe thread, but nice video. You've posted multiple nice ones. I always love watching the shelf clouds roll in. You were fortunate to get over an inch. We on got a quarter of that today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chicago WX Posted June 30, 2012 Share Posted June 30, 2012 I didn't realize LAF was -0.1º for June through yesterday. The kicker has to be the 27th, with a -2º for the day with a max/min of 90º/53º. And five of the last nine days of June will have a negative daily departure. All in all, almost doesn't seem right with the extreme heat of the finishing three days, though the first eight days of the month were decidedly cooler than normal.
