Hoosier Posted July 3, 2012 Author Share Posted July 3, 2012 Do you have a call for IND? Are you going conservative for LAF cause of the underperformance so far? Pretty much. IND: Wed: 102 Thu: 104 Fri 105 Assuming no real debris issues... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hoosier Posted July 3, 2012 Author Share Posted July 3, 2012 lolLAF is back...but for the other (and surprising) reason. It's been hard to get a handle on for sure. IND ticked up to 98 now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chicago WX Posted July 3, 2012 Share Posted July 3, 2012 It's been hard to get a handle on for sure. IND ticked up to 98 now. I'm not sure if it's wrong or what. There are a few "non-quality controlled" sites in Indiana with a 91 like LAF at 5pm. So there's that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chicago WX Posted July 3, 2012 Share Posted July 3, 2012 EVV sitting at 97 at last ob, which is their highest hourly temp of the day. Could be the upset of the month if they don't reach 100º. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the drought is playing a big role (given that our deficit has not quite reached the level in other areas of the state) but sometimes I wonder if something else is also going on...

Chicago Storm Posted July 3, 2012 Share Posted July 3, 2012 ORD and MDW are both at 95. Who's gonna win? ORD 96 and MDW 95 as of the 4PM CLI. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fickle Heights Posted July 3, 2012 Share Posted July 3, 2012 Could be, I don't know. But like was explained about the ORD thermometer "issue", measuring weather isn't perfect. There is construction going on near the airport for the new bypass, but that should have the opposite effect. I wonder if they're spraying a lot of water near the ASOS to keep the dust down...

Hoosier Posted July 3, 2012 Author Share Posted July 3, 2012 Records for IND are 103 Wednesday, 99 Thursday and 99 Friday. Thursday/Friday would appear to have a good chance of going down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kab2791 Posted July 3, 2012 Share Posted July 3, 2012 From a record perspective, these rounds of convection today have been beyond frustrating. Hopefully, tomorrow will not feature morning convection/debris. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KokomoWX Posted July 3, 2012 Share Posted July 3, 2012 It has been a miserable time to take off for lawn work. I have been working in 30 minute cycles. Ten minutes hard work, ten minutes easier work, and ten minutes rehydrating. I have realized that I am not going to get it all accomplished so will do what I can. I have highs of 99 for the next three days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chicago WX Posted July 3, 2012 Share Posted July 3, 2012 Daily records for Indianapolis through the weekend... July 3: 100º in 1911 July 4: 103º in 1911 July 5: 99º in 1936 July 6: 99º in 1988 July 7: 101º in 1936 July 8: 104º in 1936 I added points... Records for IND are 103 Wednesday, 99 Thursday and 99 Friday. Thursday/Friday would appear to have a good chance of going down. You should read the whole thread.

Chicago WX Posted July 3, 2012 Share Posted July 3, 2012 Looks like EVV will not make it. 97 for the high today per the latest climo report. Back down to 96 at 5CT/6ETpm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cyclone77 Posted July 3, 2012 Share Posted July 3, 2012 Surprised to only make 96 here today (95MLI, 97 Sterling) with nearly full sun and slightly warmer 850mb temps progged. Must not have mixed as well as yesterday. DVN spooked by this a bit and lowered tomorrow's highs a few degrees. EDIT: 90 degree streak up to 7 days.

mjwise Posted July 3, 2012 Share Posted July 3, 2012 DTW streak attempt busted big time. Only 84 (maybe an intrahour 85 in there) today. Storms affecting terminal now. They're done for the day. ETA: Early convection, resulting weird persistent storm outflow (?) setting up in western Livingston/Washtenaw counties killed it with S/SE wind. Very humid though - 70ish dewpoints all day.

cyclone77 Posted July 3, 2012 Share Posted July 3, 2012 DVN thinks clouds are gonna be an issue again for northern IL. THE PROXIMITY OF A SFC LOW IN EASTERN SOUTH DAKOTA COMBINED WITH THE LLJ INCREASING IN THE PLAINS THIS EVENING SHOULD BE JUST ENOUGH TO INITIATE ANOTHER NOCTURNAL MCS. THE LLJ IS WEAKER OVER THE CWFA SO THE MCS SHOULD MOVE GENERALLY EAST ACROSS MINNESOTA INTO WISCONSIN. OUTFLOW FROM THIS MCS WILL LIKELY GENERATE NEW CONVECTION THAT WILL DECAY AND DISSIPATE ALONG THE NORTHERN CWFA BORDER LIKE THIS MORNING. DEBRIS CLOUDS THEN PLAY INTO TEMPERATURES ON WEDNESDAY. ON WEDNESDAY...WILL GO THE THE IDEA THAT DEBRIS CLOUDS FROM NOCTURNAL CONVECTION WILL INITIALLY HOLD TEMPERATURES BACK UNTIL IT THINS BY MID TO LATE MORNING. ASSUMING THIS SCENARIO IS CORRECT...MAX TEMPERATURES MAY ONLY BE SLIGHTLY WARMER WEDNESDAY THAN THEY ARE TODAY. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stebo Posted July 3, 2012 Share Posted July 3, 2012 I am fine with the record not breaking, we all know it is hot, and this will be remembered as a hot stretch of weather. However we need the rain desperately and some areas especially the Northern and Northeastern suburbs got plenty today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

michsnowfreak Posted July 3, 2012 Share Posted July 3, 2012 DET and DTW both ended up with same average temp last month (72.3) http://www.wundergro...y.html#calendar I do think though that any sort of "bump" in temps at DTW has been built into the climate normals. Take for example FNT and DTW last month. FNT was 69.2 or + 2.7 DTW was 72.3 or + 2.9 Detroit has been a good 3 degrees warmer than Flint on average everyday last month, but in the end both sites still had the same temperature anomalies, which is what should happen in a region. If you've got city A and nearby city B having huge variations in their temp anomalies, then there's concern for tainted temperatures. I know things are built into climate normals....the greatly increased UHI at DTW may temper record lows in cold snaps moreso than the actual averages. But its just something I noticed lately (which wouldnt even be built into normals) with DTW and DET being so close. BTW where do you get that average for DET...I couldnt find it in that link and Id love to compare some other months. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However we need the rain desperately and some areas especially the Northern and Northeastern suburbs got plenty today. Yeah, we missed 90F by a good 5F today...though mby only got 0.24" of rain. Just 24 hours ago we were thinking we would tie the 11 consecutive days of 90F+, and now the streak ends at 6 consecutive days, making this the 24th heatwave on record to have 6 (or more) consecutive 90F+ days. And before the complaints start about "typical luck for SE MI" or whatever, this is nothing. When I was looking up the heat data, I probably found 2 dozen times where a would-be record long heatwave was ruined by 1 or 2 days in the upper 80s, one (I think it was in the 1940s) would have been something crazy like a 15 day stretch had not there been one day of 89F smack in the middle! So far this hasnt even been an upper 80s day. Kinda funny that that the forecast high yesterday was 89F and the actual was 94F....and the forecast high today was 95F and the actual high was 85F lol.
