BowMeHunter Posted April 22, 2013 Share Posted April 22, 2013 I actually thought Lake Michigan was warmer than that! Coolest mean in the last 5 years. Up to 55° here, but winds are turning onshore. not bad considering how off the charts warm it was. march and april laid the smack down on. now if we can avoid a baby powder summer/fall maybe we can build some ice on it next winter. Jonger might not break 20" next winter if that happens. lol j/k Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Geos Posted April 22, 2013 Share Posted April 22, 2013 not bad considering how off the charts warm it was. Maybe will actually have relief from the heat and humidity come July still. Last year there was no relief after May. Hovering in the mid 50s here. Lots of birds singing today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hard to say... the river is just about flood stage here..with warm days/warm nites...all the snow across WI/MN should melt very quickly (if the GFS/Euro are right)... probably come up quick..but how far, who knows.

daddylonglegs Posted April 22, 2013 Share Posted April 22, 2013 12z EURO...wow. Nice extended stretch of very warm air for the upper midwest. I would not want to be in North Dakota...if that air mixes to the surface, game over...that snow is going to melt so fast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

frostfern Posted April 22, 2013 Share Posted April 22, 2013 It's nice that this time of year all you really need is 850 temps above zero and full sunshine to hit 60. Away from the lake breeze anyways. What's was lacking with the previous two weeks of "fake cold" was good old radiant heating. 12 degree 850 temps are useless when you're trapped under thick clouds and rain north of the Tropic of Indiana.

Geos Posted April 22, 2013 Share Posted April 22, 2013 Looks like the heaviest rain on the NAM misses N IL for the most part. Areas south of I-80 look out though. SW MI looks to be quite wet as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
