hawkeye_wx Posted June 19, 2014 Share Posted June 19, 2014 I'm loving the lack of any real heat so far this summer. The best we could do so far this week ahead of the system is low to mid 80s. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cyclone77 Posted June 19, 2014 Share Posted June 19, 2014 Storms ended up building just far enough southwest that we got in on some action here in the predawn hours. Picked up 1.07" of rain. Was treated to an excellent light show for much of the night after midnight. New line of storms moving in,. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hawkeye_wx Posted June 19, 2014 Share Posted June 19, 2014 CGs hitting very close here on the western end of this storm ahead of the main line. Looks like you are getting one of the stronger parts of the line. I got 0.54" out of the line. The CR airport got 1.44". There is a lot of flash flooding going on across northeast Iowa.

LizardMafia Posted June 20, 2014 Share Posted June 20, 2014 Finally just got our power back after being out for about 2 hours. Definitely don't need any more rain in my area for awhile. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geos Posted June 20, 2014 Share Posted June 20, 2014 Only 69° for a high today. Had some really dense fog this morning on the way to work - very unlike mid to late June. Now it's rumbling again as a new line of storms approaches. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bowtie` Posted June 20, 2014 Share Posted June 20, 2014 Finally just got our power back after being out for about 2 hours. Definitely don't need any more rain in my area for awhile. Unfortunately my tippy bucket fatal errored on me yesterday. Got it fixed this a.m.. Had 1.10 since 7 a.m.. Most of that must have been just before 6 p.m.. I drove home on 100 South and the amount of water over the roadway from field run-off was about the most I remember in awhile. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bowtie` Posted June 20, 2014 Share Posted June 20, 2014 Keep it up there. We really do not need one drop more. But probably will still get some tomorrow. Hopefully it will stay away tonight.

cyclone77 Posted June 20, 2014 Share Posted June 20, 2014 Another band of storms rolling in now. Might make a run at 3" of rain for the day. The luck in this area has changed quite a bit since this time last night. Another nice light show going on out there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cyclone77 Posted June 20, 2014 Share Posted June 20, 2014 Picked up nearly an inch in the last 25mins or so. Now up to 3.31" for the day. Nice tropical downpours. Looks like Vietnam out there lol. EDIT: Finished the day with 3.47". Soggy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My Observations Posted June 20, 2014 Share Posted June 20, 2014 Well since this rain began on Wednesday I have a 2 day Rainfall Total of 1.68" here in Westfield . I measured 1.56" Thursday morning and another .12" this morning . Those storms yesterday pretty much split right around my location . Now we just wait and see how things develop this afternoon , after we get some daytime heating going on . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hawkeye_wx Posted June 20, 2014 Share Posted June 20, 2014 Ended up with 0.95" yesterday, one of the lower totals in the area, but still pretty decent. That puts my total at 3.86" for the week. We have a shot at some scattered storms Saturday, and maybe a little Sunday, but Monday could be interesting if the low tracks up over us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daddylonglegs Posted June 20, 2014 Share Posted June 20, 2014 Wet and stinky here... dews in upper 60Fs... calling for 85F today, so should be swampy. AC back on. Wowsers: RECORD EVENT REPORTNATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE CHANHASSEN MN0248 AM CDT FRI JUN 20 2014...RECORD CALENDAR DAY MAXIMUM RAINFALL FOR THE MONTH OF JUNE SET ATTWIN CITIES MN...A RECORD RAINFALL IN A CALENDAR DAY FOR THE MONTH OF JUNE OF 4.13INCHES WAS SET AT THE TWIN CITIES INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT YESTERDAY.THIS BREAKS THE OLD RECORD OF 3.48 INCHES SET ON JUNE 29TH 1877. Interesting thing here in La Crosse is the Mississippi has been at or near or above flood stage since April? or so and continues to stay very high, even after having many dry spells locally...the MSP area/other areas of MN/WI have had enough rain to keep the system very high and it looks like its going to really go up in the next week. Boating/fishing has sucked because of too much current, muddy water, weeds, and a slow no wake ordinance on most of the river locally when its above flood stage (10ft).

michsnowfreak Posted June 20, 2014 Share Posted June 20, 2014 Looked this up with powerball in mind. I compared the decadal averages of yearly 90F+ days with yearly 89F+ days at Detroit. Decade....Avg 90F+ days....Avg 89F+ days... 1870s ---- 4.2 days ---- 6.0 days ***only last 6 years**** 1880s ---- 5.1 days ---- 7.8 days 1890s ---- 9.1 days --- 12.1 days 1900s ---- 5.6 days ---- 7.8 days 1910s --- 10.8 days --- 14.1 days 1920s ---- 9.3 days --- 11.8 days 1930s --- 18.7 days --- 22.1 days 1940s --- 16.4 days --- 19.4 days 1950s --- 15.2 days --- 19.0 days 1960s --- 11.2 days --- 14.9 days 1970s --- 11.9 days --- 16.0 days 1980s --- 12.7 days --- 16.0 days 1990s --- 12.3 days --- 15.1 days 2000s --- 10.2 days --- 13.1 days # of days with a high of 89F 1870s - 11 days (only 1874-79) 1880s - 27 days 1890s - 30 days 1900s - 22 days 1910s - 33 days 1920s - 25 days 1930s - 34 days 1940s - 30 days 1950s - 38 days 1960s - 37 days 1970s - 41 days 1980s - 33 days 1990s - 28 days 2000s - 28 days 2010s - 24 days The 2000s were very lacking in the extreme hot days and the 1930s-50s were just ridiculous on all accounts! Not even being half over, the 2010s are too small of a sample to get an average, but the preliminary #s show that the first 4 years of the 2010s average about 6 days with a high of 89F, while prior decades tend to show a yearly average generally of 3 to 4 such days.

Powerball Posted June 20, 2014 Author Share Posted June 20, 2014 Nice weather for April Detroit did barely eek out a 70*F high today, so that does take a bit of the sting out of an otherwise awful June day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
