Stebo Posted August 28, 2012 Share Posted August 28, 2012 I know I used Romeo as my area through Accuweather for historical weather since its basically right next door. Accuweather does not recognize Addison Township. The only thing I can think on what there using then is MTC Selfridge. I thought it was PHN. http://www.accuweath...8770?view=table Romeo I don't believe has an ASOS so that would be suspect data right there, and MTC/PHN are further than DTX/PTK/VLL. These 3 are all 17ish miles away where as MTC is 22 Miles and PHN is 28 miles away. Also KD95, which is Lapeer is an ASOS site I believe which would be the closest to your area, they made it to 91 fhis month. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpartyOn Posted August 28, 2012 Share Posted August 28, 2012 I would like to know if VLL was also recalibrated and fixed along with YIP. KVLL seemed to run a tad "warm" this past late winter into spring. It has since leveled off. Drove past that site earlier this evening and gave the surrounding area a good look. It's very built up with a large big box shopping plaza directly west of site. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wisconsinwx Posted August 28, 2012 Share Posted August 28, 2012 Goodness, 102F predicted in La Crosse for Thursday and that is not a misprint. Hang in there, DLL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Powerball Posted August 28, 2012 Share Posted August 28, 2012 Based on current progged temps, we may fall just one degree shy of the hottest summer on record (74.7*F in 2012 vs. 74.8*F in 2005) It'll be the second warmest summer on record by far though, provided the temps the next three days don't significantly underachieve ether. This is based on lows in the upper 50s the next two days and a high of 95*F on Friday. It's going to be really close though. 12z NAM actually suggests 100*F on Friday. But it's absolutely amazing that Detroit had 3 consecutive top 5 summers in a row (I'm not sure if it ever happened before). This is truly once in a lifetime history we're experiencing.

cyclone77 Posted August 28, 2012 Share Posted August 28, 2012 Tomorrow marks 2 weeks since the last 90 here. Summer effectively shut off like a switch. Looks like DVN was correct a few weeks back. Some warmer days ahead, but the intense heat looks over. WRONG. That's what I get lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dmc76 Posted August 28, 2012 Share Posted August 28, 2012 WRONG. That's what I get lol. Well 4 weeks ago I said we will see 2 more days of 90+. LOL. This has to be the last one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geos Posted August 28, 2012 Share Posted August 28, 2012 Made it to 78° today with a low of 59° this morning. Very comfortable day. One more coolish day before the sinking air from Issac moves/ appears in the area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Powerball Posted August 29, 2012 Share Posted August 29, 2012 Also, August looks to be the 12th consecutive month of positive departures in Detroit, and I believe the 16th month of non-negative departures. Amazing... To put things in perspective, even if every month the rest of this year logs -3*F departures, this year would still be a top 5 warmest ever on record.

michsnowfreak Posted August 29, 2012 Share Posted August 29, 2012 Also, August looks to be the 12th consecutive month of positive departures in Detroit, and I believe the 16th month of non-negative departures. Amazing... To put things in perspective, even if every month the rest of this year logs -3*F departures, this year would still be a top 5 warmest ever on record. Depending what happens these last 3 days, the amount of below and above normal days in August at DTW look to be split right down the middle, but theres no doubt the final departure will be slightly positive, the main difference being the residual heat at the start of the month. And you are correct this will be the 16th month of non-negative departures (12th consecutive positive departure)...and since the cold winter of 2010-11 gave way to warmth in May 2011, only May 2011 (+0.9F), Sep 2011 (0.0F), Apr 2012 (+0.2F) and Aug 2012 (+0.?F) will have departures of less than 1 degree. Since this stretch started in May 2011, up to Aug 28, 2012, DTW has logged 33 days exactly normal 133 days below normal 320 days above normal So temps have been warmer than normal roughly 65% of the time the last 16 months.

Geos Posted August 30, 2012 Share Posted August 30, 2012 They didn't under perform. The ridge was slower/back builded and temps were cutdown yesterday evening. Ok, didn't catch that change last night. Getting kind of late in the season for mid 90s. Looking forward to the cool down next week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpartyOn Posted August 30, 2012 Share Posted August 30, 2012 12z NAM painting a decent swath of 90s in c Michigan come fri. It will be interesting if DTW can log possibly one of its last 90 degree days for August or for the year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chicago WX Posted August 30, 2012 Author Share Posted August 30, 2012 18th minimum temperature of 59º or lower this August this morning at LAF. The previous five Augusts and the number of sub 60º min temps for each month below. 2011: 8 times 2010: 4 times 2009: 15 times 2008: 15 times 2007: 3 times Normal min temps in August at LAF range from 64º on the 1st to 60º on the 31st.

I think Madison has the best chance to break the record. Today should be the hottest day given the winds will start in off the later tomorrow. 93° predicted here today - starting at 66°.
