Geos Posted June 28, 2013 Share Posted June 28, 2013 BowMe - I saw those odd colored clouds like you captured in the 4th and 5th picture. Had a double rainbow down here also, even though it wasn't raining where I was. Drier air almost here! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cyclone77 Posted June 28, 2013 Share Posted June 28, 2013 A little off topic.. Going to be some HOT weather out west for a few days to come! HOT.png Nothing like a nighttime low of 100! Wow. I'm surprised at that low of 100. Thought a desert area like that would have a much wider range in temps between the low and high. Can't even imagine experiencing temps near 100 at 5am.

Can't even imagine experiencing temps near 100 at 5am. There's good reason why the location got named Furnace Creek! The surrounding rocks of the mountains I'm sure retain that heat really well at night. A bit of haze outside now with the temp and dewpoint really close at 67°.

A place that interesting inside the US border deserves at least an AWOS. Pretty disappointing that for whatever reason that never happened.

That is disappointing. Especially since the hottest temperature in the US was measured there. Found a location just south of Furnace Creek with some lows of 102°. Still 116° at the nearest wx station! Dewpoint, 43°. Not that bad! lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

harrisale Posted June 28, 2013 Share Posted June 28, 2013 Turning into quite the decent heavy rain event around Southern Ontario, some significant highway and parking lot flooding in places.

London snowsquall Posted June 28, 2013 Share Posted June 28, 2013 Turning into quite the decent heavy rain event around Southern Ontario, some significant highway and parking lot flooding in places. Some people abandoning cars in the road. Kitchener, ON: Wow on the pic. I think we've been the hole in the donut as far as rain goes. I noticed that Kitchener and areas to the east were getting more than us as well as areas down towards Chatham and Windsor. I've already dealt with flooding with the t-storms earlier in the month.....I'll pass on a repeat.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mjwise Posted June 28, 2013 Share Posted June 28, 2013 Since late Tuesday evening, KARB is up to 3.97" of liquid. That's not really a bullseye amount from looking at radar estimates, and it's the first time I think I've seen GFS QPF actually underdo things convectively. Usually it has the opposite problem...

wxman1952 Posted June 29, 2013 Share Posted June 29, 2013 Michigan sure had it's share of rain in spots on Thursday. Near me in Saginaw, MI a weather spotter recorded 5.00". More today but nothing like yesterday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geos Posted June 29, 2013 Share Posted June 29, 2013 Just experienced a crazy intense shower, which put down 0.23" in 5 minutes! Now I can understand how it flooded so quickly in SE MI yesterday with the storms. In addition I witnessed the longest lasting rainbow I've experienced - about 15 minutes long and one of the brightest as well. Pictures soon to follow.

Geos Posted June 29, 2013 Share Posted June 29, 2013 0.32" of rain today. 5.60" month to date. 16 days this month will measurable rain. Wow, Bullhead City, AZ still at 117° at almost 8pm at night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
michsnowfreak Posted June 29, 2013 Share Posted June 29, 2013 Nice pics guys! It has been off and on stormy here. Bouts of scary skies numerous times the last 2 days, some storms hit us, some missed and produced just a dark sky. Had 1.10" of rain in the heavy storm yesterday, and had various storms today (didnt measure yet). Rainbow on June 27 Stormy sky on June 28 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wisconsinwx Posted June 29, 2013 Share Posted June 29, 2013 Got poured on for about 20 minutes this evening volunteering at Summerfest; besides that, it was a very pleasant evening, with temps in the upper 60s/lower 70s and slightly muggy.
