Stebo Posted September 24, 2015 Share Posted September 24, 2015 Hit 79 today. A couple degrees above forecast, maybe tomorrow we will crack 80. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chambana Posted September 24, 2015 Share Posted September 24, 2015 ORD made it to 80, the 14th 80+ day this month. So correct me if wrong, but pretty sure ORD needs 4 more 80 degree days to beat the record of 80 degree days set in 1978 and 2005. In jeapordy for sure.

Geos Posted September 24, 2015 Author Share Posted September 24, 2015 Great pictures Joel! Very peaceful and serene location. Made it to 74° today, low 52°. Cirrus late in the day put on quite a show. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cyclone77 Posted September 24, 2015 Share Posted September 24, 2015 Very nice pictures Joel! Did you catch any fish? Yet another SGX-type day in the books. Thanks guys. Yeah caught quite a few bluegills and crappies. Just fished for panfish this time with bobbers and worms. First time I've used a bobber in 15+ years. Pretty fun actually. Made for a very nice fish fry. Surprisingly did have a nice fish hit and dove down deep and snapped my line. Only had 6lb test on. Wasn't expecting anything like that. Probably was a big turtle or a catfish. Could have been a walleye, but they're pretty rare in that lake. Came across these wild turkeys creeping along the edge of a corn field on the way home from work earlier today. Snapped this with the cell.

Love fishing crappie and walleye. Nothing beats fresh fish for a fish fry. I know bass have been biting like crazy right now! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chambana Posted September 25, 2015 Share Posted September 25, 2015 Starting to sound like a broken record, but another absolutely A+ day. 84 and full sun today. Ready for a taste of fall.

Nice....I noticed last weekend driving out to the farm that corn got less and less yellow as I headed west from the burbs here...but even the neighbors corn at the farm had that "dry and ready to change" look... As for your fish....let the legend begin....it might have been 20 pounds....prolly a muskie! Haha JK....congrats on having some time to fish. And, yeah...my rats did some bobber fishing recently and it was a blast joining them...felt like a little kid waiting for it to go under. Nice bon fire night as I mentally prepare for the blood moon lunar eclipse this weekend... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IWXwx Posted September 25, 2015 Share Posted September 25, 2015 The GFS was bringing the heat (ridging) in that time frame like the Euro depicts, but has flattened the flow on recent runs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daddylonglegs Posted September 25, 2015 Share Posted September 25, 2015 Warmest Sept on record is 1998 at 68.8F .. right now we are running 70.6F for the month... we drop back to more normal temps by Tues/Weds... i think we should easily bag a new record. I want fall! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stebo Posted September 26, 2015 Share Posted September 26, 2015 Have a chance at beating some records. No chance at 1881. 1881-1882 was a really snowless winter for this region. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
michsnowfreak Posted September 26, 2015 Share Posted September 26, 2015 1881-1882 was a really snowless winter for this region.1881-82 is a winter the likes of which no one alive here has ever seen. Yes it is the 2nd least snowy winter on record (a pathetic 13.2" at Detroit) but more noticeably it is by FAR the warmest winter on record. When looking at top coldest/warmest records, it is often just a few tenths of a degree that separates the most extreme seasons. But in this case, 1881-82 stands as the warmest winter by 1.2F over 2nd place. And since the top 3 warmest winters are all before our time (1881-82, 1931-32, 1889-90) this means this winter was over 3F warmer than any winter we have experienced. This came directly after the historically severe 1880-81 winter (which stood as our snowiest winter on record until 2014). The stark contrast makes 1981-82 to 1982-83 look like child's play, & is well documented in Laura Ingalls Wilders little house books. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
