Roger Smith Posted August 30, 2013 Share Posted August 30, 2013 Hey, since I look at the CF6 every day for the forecast contest, it's not much extra work to look up these contest values, so here's a table which I will update daily until September 4th. Values posted during a current day are provisional, marked as * and may not be final anyway, also subject to change later on CF6. I won't attempt to monitor the regional maximum but I did notice it was 104 at DSM today (date posted that is).

csnavywx Posted August 31, 2013 Share Posted August 31, 2013 KSTL posted a 100 reading today. First time this summer. We almost snuck our way through a summer without one. Edit: 102F, not 100. This breaks the old record of 100. We also have a chance of breaking the record high minimum temperature tonight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

michsnowfreak Posted September 2, 2013 Share Posted September 2, 2013 Wow looking at that list DTW really missed the heat. I assume some spotters near Chicago/Milwaukee could have flirted with 100? Everyone was too warm for hottest temp a DTW, chicagowx was the closest guessing 92F max, which was just 4F too warm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Roger Smith Posted September 3, 2013 Share Posted September 3, 2013 Not sure what happened there, I must have clicked on the wrong station. Sorry, anyway, can't say that I agree the contest should be called off, why is that? I have some lower numbers predicted that could alter the scores and I based those on what I saw on model runs for Sept 3-4, so this doesn't seem like the right way to finish off.
