Temps are into the upper 90s all around Cedar Rapids, but the CR airport actually fell one degree to 93 last hour. I swear, if the sun moved 30 million miles closer to Earth the CR airport still would never hit 100.

ORD just made it back to 97 after a nearly severe thunderstorm hit a few hours ago. That's as warm as MLI and Cedar Rapids got all day. Just plain bizarre.

12z MET has 105 here on Thursday with NAM 2m temps even a little warmer. I'll take the under.

Actual, 101º.

12z MET has 109 here on Saturday. That is the warmest output I've ever seen for LAF. I don't really buy it though given 850 mb temps peaking around 26-27C. Should end up at least a few degrees cooler.

And going off the above...105º sounds about right.

What's your guess for ORD tomorrow?

Given a slightly warmer environment today compared to yesterday added 1F to the high(possibly could have been two), and the same can be expected tomorrow...I'll go with 104, which is a bump up from my original call of 103 from a few days back.

This is very unusual. The high today was 86 at DTW but 87 at Port Hope, a town on the eastern coast of the thumb, which is usually under the influence of a Lake Breeze, given it's great exposure to the surrounding Lake Huron. Considering the forecast high for DTW was 98, this is quite a rarity, especially during a heat wave. Timining/placement of convection/cloud cover is a forecaster's worst nightmare in these situations.

Btw, anyone who cheers for this kind of weather needs to have a mental evaluation, seriously. This weather just drains the life right out of your body. I feel so miserable just walking outside. One or two days of this I can handle but day after day is too much. Autumn can't get here fast enough.
