One of the frats on campus is having their annual foam party tonight.

 

Already down to 54 F at the 9:00 ob, and it doesn't even start until 11:00.

 

They already postponed it from last night too.

 

Foam party! That sounds interesting.

 

Clouds moving in here has checked the temperature fall.

 

Pond water temperature fell 5° over night Friday. 61° now.

Tomorrow's rain event looks less impressive around these parts than it has on previous model cycles.  The 0.50-1.00" type rains now look to be more in the 0.25-0.50" range.  Still gonna be nice to get some rain. 

 

Amazing how quickly things can turn around.  Back in July I was thoroughly sick of rain.  Had been a very wet year up to that point.  The last heavy rainfall event around here happened on July 22, when over 1.50" fell.  After that the rains more or less shut off.

Been a nice soaking rain here all morning.  Even getting a few downpours in the last half hour.  Up to 0.62". 

 

Wow, you're really cashing in on the rain. It seems the models were too far north with the projected heaviest amounts.

I keep seeing cpc's 6-10 and 8-14 day outlooks, and for a week or more they have shown a torch in the extended. I look at the models and they are showing very quick torches at best. Massive fail lately with those longish range outlooks.

 

It's like we're chasing the phatom warm spells in the forecasts/outlooks. Like how we were chasing the phantom cold spells two winters ago. lol

 

Looks like most of the rain is done now.

Yeah luckily the models were a bit off.  The earlier runs in previous days proved more accurate for this area. 

 

Getting some nice rain with this second wave of precip.  Up to 0.93" now.  Should actually end up clearing the 1" threshold.

Fantastic day.  The first round of rain was a bit disappointing with only a quarter inch falling, but the second line hit us good and boosted the total to 0.53"... easily the best rain since July.  Even better, the latest Euro is a thing of beauty as it shows another ~2 inch soaker from late Tuesday through Friday morning.

 

Quite a few locations in Iowa got screwed again(nw, central, and far southeast part of the state) so hopefully they'll get some good rain later in the week.

lame rain event.. lake michigan torching in the 70's off alek's fav beach..  He might not see  accumulating snow until in to Jan if his torch fall prediction which looks likely comes to truth.  Big early winter coming for the NW sub-forum.

 

Huh?

 

Looks like his temps go from below normal to above normal and then right back to below. Pretty normal stuff.
