IWXwx Posted August 20, 2014 Share Posted August 20, 2014 drudge.gif IND calling for 91 for Indy on Friday. Lol. My point is calling for 89° Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. They just couldn't pull the trigger. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chicago WX Posted August 20, 2014 Share Posted August 20, 2014 Surrounded, but not a drop here. Can see lightning/hear thunder in different directions though, which is kinda cool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now that is threading the needle. Had 0.50 between 6 and 7 o'clock but it just started up again and it looks like we might had a wee bit more.

But as usual, the northern part of Tippecanoe County is getting nailed...again. Flood Advisory up for them. Enjoy the rain/storms down there.

A-L-E-K Posted August 20, 2014 Share Posted August 20, 2014 sounds good to me THURSDAY THROUGH SUNDAY...MAIN CONCERN IN THE MEDIUM TERM WILL RESIDE ON THEPLACEMENT/STRENGTH OF THE 500MB RIDGE POISED TO SETUP ACROSS THEOZARKS. GUIDANCE HAS BEEN CONSISTENTLY SUGGESTING AN ATMOSPHERICRIVER DEVELOPING ACROSS THE NORTHERN PLAINS AND BECOMING ORIENTEDALONG THE NORTHERN PERIPHERY OF THE MID-LVL RIDGE...THEN TURNINGSOUTHEAST ACROSS THE ALLEGHENIES IN PENNSYLVANIA. CONCERN DOES ARISEWITH THE FACT THAT MEDIUM RANGE GUIDANCE HAS DEMONSTRATED A REDUCEDLEVEL OF CONFIDENCE WITH SPREAD IN HOW AMPLIFIED THE RIDGE WILLBECOME...WHICH COULD BE STARTING TO HINT THAT THE ACTIVE RING-O-FIREMAY END UP CLOSER TO THE FORECAST AREA THUR NGT/FRI. AT THIS TIMEHAVE ONLY MADE MINOR ADJUSTMENTS WITH THE POPS...AND EXPECT ACHANNEL OF LIKELY POPS TO BE LIFTING NORTH THUR MIDDAY INTO WISC BYTHUR NGT. CURRENT OPER SOLUTIONS STILL FAVOR THIS SCENARIO...PLUS850MB TEMPS WILL BE STEADILY WARMING AND SHUD LIMIT THE COVERAGE OFCONVECTION/PRECIP.THEN INTO FRI SOLUTIONS SUGGEST THE TOP OF THE RIDGE MAY BEGIN TOFLATTEN. LOCAL ARW8KM ALSO HINTS THAT THE ACTIVE ZONE MAY BEDRIFTING SOUTH AND COULD BE OVER THE FORECAST AREA FRI AFTN/EVE.THEN FOR SAT RIDGE REMAINS OVERHEAD...BUT IT STILL LOOKS POSSIBLEFOR CHC POPS TO START THE WEEKEND. THE ONE CONSISTENCY THROUGH THETHUR-SAT TIMEFRAME...THE HEAT/HUMIDITY. WHILE PWAT VALUES CONTINUETO HOVER IN THE 1.6-1.8" RANGE...THE FORECAST DEW PTS ARE EXPECTEDTO LINGER IN THE LOW TO PERHAPS MID 70S FOR MANY LOCATIONS THUR-SAT.SFC TEMPS ARE PROGGED TO PUSH WELL INTO THE 80S...AND PERHAPS WARMERYET DEPENDING ON CLOUD COVER/PRECIP. THE COMBINATION OF ANOMALOUSLYHIGH DEW PTS AND SFC TEMPS IN THE UPR 80S/NEAR 90 WOULD SIGNAL HEATINDEX VALUES IN THE MID/UPR 90S TO PERHAPS THE LOW 100S SOUTH OFI-80...MAINLY FRI-SUN.

The_Global_Warmer Posted August 20, 2014 Share Posted August 20, 2014 Not for me. I thought we made it thru the summer in pretty good fashion. June was pretty warm to borderline hot here. But July was very cool, especially for recent July's. August has been almost 3F below normal here and now that is all going down in flames. 98-100F with 105-110F Heat index just sucks.

Chicago WX Posted August 20, 2014 Share Posted August 20, 2014 Nightmare scenario for Hoosier. But, we'll have no problems going 90º+ on those days in reality, though it would be sorta funny if it played out like that. Friday: A 20 percent chance of showers and thunderstorms. Partly sunny, with a high near 89. West southwest wind 6 to 9 mph. Saturday: A 30 percent chance of showers and thunderstorms. Mostly sunny, with a high near 89.Sunday: Mostly sunny, with a high near 89. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wisconsinwx Posted August 20, 2014 Share Posted August 20, 2014 83 with complexes around on the reg...best climo summer filled with 74 degree days punctuated by plenty of storms Same here, but now a projected 90 crept in for Friday because, of all things, the storms may stay to the south! Hope that doesn't verify, and we hang in the 80s with storms on Friday as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gilbertfly Posted August 20, 2014 Share Posted August 20, 2014 Yeah....ring of fire modeled a few days out to be just north of mby makes me feel great about the possibility of being impacted by an MCS or 2...solid trade off for a few days of high DP's in a summer that has been nearly void of elevated heat indexes. The preverbial "i like where i sit" coming into play. Had some gorgeous views of tinted storm blow offs to my east during last night's sunset. They were contrasted by some bright white building cumulus clouds at lower levels...epic summer for all different varieties of beautiful sunsets.

Indystorm Posted August 20, 2014 Share Posted August 20, 2014 Had a nice t storm with very frequent and vivid lightning last night around 11 p.m. Severe warnings were to my southwest. Looks like an active pattern this week with the warm front nearby. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wisconsinwx Posted August 20, 2014 Share Posted August 20, 2014 Looks like a nice, classic summer day on tap in Milwaukee; warm, but not overly warm or humid. It will probably feel pretty decent, and I may have to soak this up, as 70F dews are just on the horizon (hopefully with frequent storminess).

Hoosier Posted August 20, 2014 Share Posted August 20, 2014 12z MEX has 6 consecutive days of 90+ here. Unlikely that will happen, but can't go the entire stretch without at least one, right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thundersnow12 Posted August 20, 2014 Share Posted August 20, 2014 Friday looks absolutely horrid if we don't get storms to pop. Mid 90's with dew pooling in the mid to upper 70's with even 80 dews now showing up now pooling near the frontal intersections. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
