Geos Posted June 6, 2012 Share Posted June 6, 2012 Nice picture, Tropical! Actually I found my pair of IR sunglasses that did the trick nicely in conjunction with binoculars. Had no way of taking a picture, but I could definitely see the dark circle of Venus in the northern hemisphere on the sun! (Like the pic above, but in a purple tint) Sun getting a little low into the trees to get a good view now. Glad today was clear! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IWXwx Posted June 6, 2012 Share Posted June 6, 2012 Nice... Meanwhile, the Euro "cools off" Chicagoland to a crisp +12°C 850 for the same same time frame. Brrrrr. lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geos Posted June 6, 2012 Share Posted June 6, 2012 Kinda chilly this morning. Low 48°, another clear day. Bounced up to 60° nicely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chicago WX Posted June 6, 2012 Share Posted June 6, 2012 The 48º this morning at LAF is the third sub 50º minimum temp of this June (two other min temps of 50º as well). Have to go back to 2004 the last time there were at least three in June. The previous two Junes had no sub 50º min temps. Matter of fact, June 2010 only had four min temps sub 60º. Anyways, despite the boring run of weather this Spring and very early Summer locally, this start to June has been beautiful (temp wise) in my book. Looks like my luck is about to run out though...

frostfern Posted June 6, 2012 Share Posted June 6, 2012 I saw it real good as the sun got close to the horizon, no permanent eye damage either. I saw it with some special eclipse-viewing glasses + binoculars. The clouds finally got out of the way just before sunset. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

daddylonglegs Posted June 6, 2012 Share Posted June 6, 2012 We need rain. I know we had some in the past, but these days of low humidity and full sun, cool nights and hot days is just sucking the moisture out of the ground. I had to water again today. Gorgeous out side, but I'll take a tstorm or 10 at this point... I've seen 5 baby bunnies in my garden so far (they must all be brothers/sisters)...that can't be good. Must be a bumper crop.

frostfern Posted June 6, 2012 Share Posted June 6, 2012 There's some convective popups to my north over the higher terrain. The lake breeze is putting up some towers overhead now as well. I wasn't expecting anything so exciting in this boring pattern. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Geos Posted June 7, 2012 Share Posted June 7, 2012 This weather can't get any more awesome IMO! High 72°, mostly clear skies, low humidity! Feels like early Autumn. Down in the mid 50s already... probably be in the 40s again tonight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Geos Posted June 7, 2012 Share Posted June 7, 2012 That sucks. Haha, which part? The lows or the highs? Down to 49°/48° at 11:30. Looking at low 80s for Friday. Thinking the air will still be on the dry side with a west wind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
