downeastnc Posted June 14, 2017 Share Posted June 14, 2017 The ridge is going to slip off to the east some and this should increase storm coverage for almost all of the SE, MHX going with 30-60% chances everyday for the next 7 days for MBY...

I generally hate summer but I do enjoy when we are lucky enough to get in a pattern where there is a decent shot of storms each day, even if they aren't severe. Could be a lot worse temp wise too. Poor Folks out west are about to be baked and fried in record fashion though...don't know how they stand it...dry heat or not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After June concludes with it's record-breaking string of 140F days, we're likely not to see a green leaf anywhere." Meanwhile, just down the road into North Carolina, jburns' weed lawn has brought forth one of it's most robust crops in recent memory. For images of the extreme heat and dryness, see below: 3 Yes, the weed lawn is still doing fine. Year 18. Took these just now while I was mowing. Side yard with weather station.

Lookout Posted June 17, 2017 Share Posted June 17, 2017 las vegas is now forecasting high temps as high as 128 tuesday and 129 in portions of death valley next wednesday. I've often followed death valleys temps during impressive heat waves and i don't recall ever seeing a forecasted temp as high as 129. I've often wondered if they have ever forecasted a high temp in the 130s before and they are 1 degree removed from it now. crazy. http://forecast.weather.gov/MapClick.php?lon=-116.8759992454312&lat=36.38816301823071#.WUUjIet0bwd Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have you ever been it it? I was in Death Valley once at about 120 degrees and don't even know how to describe it. Totally different ballgame than 100 with humidity in low country SC. NO THANKS!
