Geos Posted June 8, 2013 Share Posted June 8, 2013 It would be a bit warm in the June sun geos. The high clouds would take the edge off! Just a little bit below normal for lake temperatures. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Geos Posted June 9, 2013 Share Posted June 9, 2013 Lol, I do favor cool. This spring/early summer now has had a bit too many cool days (and cloudy damp days), even for my liking. This weather is great, but we need warmer weather to get the gardens and fields growing well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chicago WX Posted June 9, 2013 Share Posted June 9, 2013 Sunny, warm/pleasant, and boring in the LAF...day after day after day. Looks like the boring part may be changing...hopefully. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cyclone77 Posted June 9, 2013 Share Posted June 9, 2013 Central IA getting some decent sunshine has bumped the surface cape up to around 1000j/kg. Should be a broken line of decent storms blowing up there a bit later. Been pretty cloudy here today. Still no rain, but some showers are popping up near the QC.

Although it's a thinner line, it looks more impressive than the storms in IL that are under a watch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The wind fields are pretty well stacked on the storms from southern MN into southern IA, but the southern end of the line has a little more turning with height. Can't completely rule out a brief/weak tornado on the southern portion in northeast MO west of Quincy in the next few hours. Just had a nice downpour here with some thunder.

daddylonglegs Posted June 9, 2013 Share Posted June 9, 2013 Had rain all day (what else is new?)..finally quit about 45 minutes ago...didn't really add up to much, but just an annoying light rain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cyclone77 Posted June 9, 2013 Share Posted June 9, 2013 Picked up exactly a half inch so far today. Brings us to a bit over an inch for the month. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hawkeye_wx Posted June 10, 2013 Share Posted June 10, 2013 This system has been a big ol' dud around here. Leading up to the storm the WPC consistently had us in the half to one inch range, but I've had less than a tenth. DVN is pretty confident there will be a nice MCS rolling ese across Iowa Tuesday night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DVN is pretty confident there will be a nice MCS rolling ese across Iowa Tuesday night. The models have done a poor job in the short to medium range with the last two systems (granted, I admit some of it is backyard bias). I expect the current projections by the GFS and its ensembles to be too far north with the midweek shenanigans and we'll probably get basically shut out with that system as well.

When will they ever learn MKE spring/early summer climo and model bias. Alek would be a great addition there. A+ start to June although I'm in the mood for a few garden variety thunder boomers... warmth/torch will come in bouts this summer for the green thumbers so meh to the cooler rainy start and I've off the charts enjoyed this start to June.

daddylonglegs Posted June 10, 2013 Share Posted June 10, 2013 With dew points in the low to mid 60Fs today, sure felt a heck of a lot warmer. .19 inches of rain and that was almost the whole day...with short duration of sprinkles/drizzle thrown in...did see the sun this evening. Sure looks like we might get a lot of dry time this week...so that is going to really help kick start things. I've noticed the grass here has stopped/slowed growing. I figured with the cool wx and constant rain/drizzle that it would be growing a lot, but that hasn't been the case. My guess is the lack of sun/too much moisture...

I think timing keeps the severe threat lower for our immediate region but that's no big deal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hawkeye_wx Posted June 10, 2013 Share Posted June 10, 2013 First thing this morning DVN released a discussion stating the fog was pretty thin and by 9am the area should be mostly sunny. It's now 11am and the entire state is still covered with stratus. DVN now says it will be afternoon before we see sun and even after that it should remain mostly cloudy. I can't imagine we've ever had a cloudier first ten days of June. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
