Jonger Posted June 28, 2016 Share Posted June 28, 2016 Made it to 76 today before the thick cloud deck moved over, 67 now. Wow. Our high of 68 was late at night. Low to mid 60s all day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jonger Posted June 29, 2016 Share Posted June 29, 2016 Downsloping FTW on god awful days like this. I like mid 60's. I'm glad you got the warmth, I felt like I was breathing clean, crisp air once again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

michsnowfreak Posted June 29, 2016 Share Posted June 29, 2016 lmao at DTW's "76F". I have been leary of their very frequent 2-3F intra-hour highs for sometime now, but this takes the cake. A 5F intra hour bump? Sounds logical. Everytime there is one of these unrealistic intra hour bumps, I check the wunderground station at 94/275 (ie right at the airport basically) and every single time its the same result. The wungerground station (which updates every 10 minutes at least) basically mirrors DTW temps, but during the hour when the obligatory spike occurs at DTW, there is absolutely no evidence of this at the wunderground station (or any other regional stations for that matter). If it happened once, twice, or five times is one thing, but this is another thing all-together. I guess downsloping only occurs specifically at the weather station of DTW, not other nearby areas . It truly needs to be looked at by the NWS, and if its absolutely nothing with the min/max sensor, then the thermometer needs to be moved, because its giving a false representation of high temps. Here are todays hourly temps 12pm – 70 01pm – 71 02pm – 72 (6-hr max 73) 03pm – 71 04pm – 70 05pm – 71 06pm – 67 07pm – 67 08pm – 66 (6-hr max 76) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Geos Posted June 29, 2016 Share Posted June 29, 2016 Boring stretch of nice weather. I would normally be out on the course, but I doubt I can talk my wife into that with a 3 day old. Congratulation! Yeah, you might need to put off golfing for a little while. Cool night tonight - 52/51° currently. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jonger Posted June 29, 2016 Share Posted June 29, 2016 47f right now. I guess my airport hit 44F. Damn. Some low 40's readings in the area. Cool morning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No conspiracy from what I saw watching the ASOS.Again not saying it's conspiracy....just that there's something funky about thermometer or thermometer placement. Especially since this didn't used to happen, and since it isnt happening at nearby stations. It's one thing to be YIP (who hit 98 two days ago) or ARB (who hit 40 this morning) but DTW is a first order, major climate station. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

osubrett2 Posted June 29, 2016 Share Posted June 29, 2016 "Only" bottomed out at 59F. Clouds kept it from cooling off too much. I would expect a few degrees cooler tonight however. Felt like September outside last night and it was perfect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The thermometer hasn't moved since it was put in over 20 years ago. The thermometer itself rarely does anything funky except when we have super heavy precip days, where the dew point will try and pass the temperature, but that is more of a function of the dew point sensor having issues with too much moisture.

michsnowfreak Posted June 29, 2016 Share Posted June 29, 2016 53 at dtw. Only 5F off the record. We are heading into the dog days....as some days in July have record lows of 50-52 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geos Posted June 29, 2016 Share Posted June 29, 2016 41 earlier here at my place. numerous 30's reported and even a freeze, 30 degrees at Doe Lake. I remember you mentioning Doe Lake last summer due to a really low temp. Looks like that location is in a slight depression at over 1500 feet surrounded by pine forest. Makes sense that they're the ice box of the UP. A milder 50° here overnight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah they are often the cold spot, and there's Baraga plains in the western UP that's a real cold spot. Both areas are heavy in pine and withstand the Summer frosts and the occasional freeze well. Very unpopulated as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A-L-E-K Posted June 30, 2016 Share Posted June 30, 2016 Hmm, usually you're on the Euro train. the days of death ridges building far enough east for us to torch are over I don't buy this, I know we have been in perpetual NW flow but the pattern has changed, hell the ridge just noses in this weekend and we have 3 days of 90 degree weather and it is only June. Plus if you believe the GFS then you believe in days of cutoff spinning in the east. Why would that be more believable than days of ridging in the summer.

michsnowfreak Posted June 30, 2016 Share Posted June 30, 2016 DTW finishes June with 1.30", which is the 10th driest June on record. 0.99" of that fell on the 4th. Imby, where only 0.41" fell on the 4th, I finish the month with 0.78". (Had that been the Detroit number it would be 2nd driest June on record) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hawkeye_wx Posted June 30, 2016 Share Posted June 30, 2016 Picked up another 0.37" of rain this morning. I wasn't expecting anything, so when I woke up to the sound of raindrops hitting the roof at 3:15am(my brain is programmed to wake up with the first drop or rumble) I had to run out to get the gauge set up and prepare the downspouts. I'm up to 8.44" for the month. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hoosier Posted June 30, 2016 Author Share Posted June 30, 2016 Final June number for ORD will be a little under +3, which makes it a bit warmer than June 2010 and the warmest June since 2012. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daddylonglegs Posted June 30, 2016 Share Posted June 30, 2016 An inch of rain fell the last hour or so...the temp was up to 83F/84F and dropped to 62F... That seems like an extreme temp drop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cyclone77 Posted June 30, 2016 Share Posted June 30, 2016 Pretty nice day today. Clouds kept temps down in the 70s. Had a few sprinkles this morning, but nothing measurable. We're in the slight risk, but not expecting anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
