Hoosier Posted July 27, 2015 Author Share Posted July 27, 2015 fwiw, Sep/Oct 1997 turned warm in the northern Plains with some of that spilling over into areas west of Lake Michigan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ClicheVortex2014 Posted July 28, 2015 Share Posted July 28, 2015 CFS has been advertising a below average month...I guess that shouldn't come as a surprise Yeah, rather dry month too for some of this subforum. On the bright side... the west gets much needed rain. That makes me happy. It's a symptom of the pattern we've been stuck in... if we get rid of the symptom, then the "disease" may be no more. fwiw, Sep/Oct 1997 turned warm in the northern Plains with some of that spilling over into areas west of Lake Michigan. CFS kinda has that happening... especially starting in October. Also, it has above average precip for California in all 6 of the coming months.

Would be nice for those out west, but as we all know, the accuracy and reliability of these forecasts usually leaves something to be desired.

ClicheVortex2014 Posted July 31, 2015 Share Posted July 31, 2015 GFS has a really active pattern for most of the first half of August. It even has a lee trough developing, deepening to 996mb. The last CFS monthly forecast for August is very wet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chicago Storm Posted August 1, 2015 Share Posted August 1, 2015 Seems sort of unbelievable given the June/July around here, but the grass is starting to turn brown in some areas. Only a T of precip here the last 14 days...And combine that with constant temps in the mid 80's-low 90's. Many lawns have turned brown, are dried out, and have widespread/deep soil cracking.

Gilbertfly Posted August 1, 2015 Share Posted August 1, 2015 Yeah....I already had soil cracking at the start of the week...pretty amazing turnaround Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Indystorm Posted August 1, 2015 Share Posted August 1, 2015 Bright green grass down here Indy way. I was amazed by just thinking we were entering Aug. and how green everything was. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cyclone77 Posted August 1, 2015 Share Posted August 1, 2015 Some respectable towers to the north. Nice feeding flank visible to the west of the main thunderhead. Looks like a train of updrafts feeding in from left to right increasing in height as they get closer to the ongoing storm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CanadianGuy Posted August 1, 2015 Share Posted August 1, 2015 Everything is turning brown here. I haven't gotten a drop imby in two weeks. Thunderstorms keep popping up to the south of me and missing me by a mile or two. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

daddylonglegs Posted August 2, 2015 Share Posted August 2, 2015 Rode the Elroy Sparta trail in WI this weekend, everything gets more dead the further north we go. In Elroy the grass was losing luster. In Sparta it's dead dormant crunchy and brown. Sent from my iPhone Did you like those tunnels? Its cold in there... Its a nice trail but long...i can jump on that not far from my house. It runs north up the river a little.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Besides the shorter days, I noticed a few days ago, all the song birds have left. Complete silence from the birds pretty much. Also, the ferns in the forest and the aspens have started to change color some. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daddylonglegs Posted August 2, 2015 Share Posted August 2, 2015 There is a tree along I90 that is already changing color... I see it every time i drive by. Sparta is kind of the armpit Wisconsin Its not a bad town but they seem to have a lot of crime for such a small population. Once you head west on the trail its mostly small rivers/marsh... It would be fun to hid in those tunnels and scare the crap out of people coming through Hot humid and the ragweed is out...my allergies are going nuts...next week with north winds it should let up some.
