Ellinwood Posted June 20, 2012 Share Posted June 20, 2012 ...ERN COLD FRONT... BROAD CYCLONIC FLOW IN ASSOCIATION WITH SERN CANADIAN-OH VALLEY UPPER TROUGH WILL OVERSPREAD THE ERN U.S. DURING THE DAY3 PERIOD WITH UPWARDS OF 25-30KT OF MID LEVEL FLOW EXPECTED TO OVERSPREAD THE WARM SECTOR PRIOR TO FRONTAL PASSAGE. WHILE DEEP LAYER SHEAR IS NOT EXPECTED TO BE THAT STRONG IT APPEARS SUFFICIENT BOUNDARY LAYER HEATING/DESTABILIZATION WILL OCCUR SUCH THAT THUNDERSTORMS SHOULD EASILY DEVELOP ALONG THE WIND SHIFT BY EARLY AFTERNOON AS IT PROGRESSES EAST OF THE APPALACHIANS. ROBUST UPDRAFTS ARE EXPECTED ALONG THE WIND SHIFT AND A FEW STORMS COULD CERTAINLY PRODUCE GUSTY WINDS DURING THE DAYLIGHT HOURS. AT THIS TIME WILL ONLY INTRODUCE 5% SEVERE PROBS TO ACCOUNT FOR THIS THREAT BUT HIGHER PROBS MAY BE NEEDED IN LATER OUTLOOKS IF IT BECOMES MORE CLEAR THAT CONVECTION WILL BE MORE ORGANIZED/INTENSE THAN CURRENTLY INDICATED.

Ian Posted June 20, 2012 Share Posted June 20, 2012 We already got the west bump though. I'll take 97. 88.3 on mine. eh--early a.m. bump. we usually see a steep rise in one of the morning hourlies. it could be one of those days we peak out early and then piddle up for a few hours. would want to see more west component i suppose. need another few degrees at noon. the best part is that a few days ago so many were like "naa, this is a mid-90s heat at worst". sure.. with a stacked ridge overhead or just southwest. numerical model forecasters.. sigh.

MN Transplant Posted June 20, 2012 Author Share Posted June 20, 2012 at least we're not in duluth. apocalypse from 6" of rain? Close to 8" in spots, and with that terrain there is going to be problems. Love the MN north shore. Sad to hear about all of the animal deaths at the zoo up there. edit - and when you've had catastrophic flooding, this is what you want headed at you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

snowfan Posted June 20, 2012 Share Posted June 20, 2012 Probably goes without saying, but this is already the warmest day of the year. Anyone know how long it has been since we've reached the low 90s this late in the year? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MN Transplant Posted June 20, 2012 Author Share Posted June 20, 2012 Anyone know how long it has been since we've reached the low 90s this late in the year? In 2009, we hit 92 in late April at DCA (brutal for those of us in apartments with the heat still on) and then it didn't make it above that until July 16th.
