Hi-Res models and satellite trends (not to mention DTX's aviation updates) certainly aren't encouraging. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hoosier Posted June 18, 2017 Share Posted June 18, 2017 Would be nice to get something more than a garden variety thunderstorm at some point. Oh well, need any rain we can get as we have not done as well as surrounding areas in the past several days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If that 80 mph svr warned storm just north of Gibson City continues eastward as strong as it currently it the LAF area may be in for a rude awakening later tonight.

Stebo Posted June 19, 2017 Share Posted June 19, 2017 Didn't know where to put this so I figured I would put it here. Ran through the Iowa State archives for this year for DTX, so far they have issued 15 severe warnings, 1 being today. Most of the warnings interestingly enough came on Feb 24 and 28 with 4 each. Since then there have been a total of only 7 warnings for DTX's CWA. Also 0 tornado warnings. Pretty incredible how dead this area has been for severe weather this year, almost to unprecedented levels, especially if you factor out the 2 days in late February. Edit: last year was pretty much the same as well, and ended well below normal for severe weather. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Edit: last year was pretty much the same as well, and ended well below normal for severe weather. Last year was about as bad as things could get from a severe weather perspective, at least in my memory. There was only one severe weather warning for Wayne County, and really only one notable episode of severe weather in the Metro Detroit area (a lone supercell that hit the Downriver communities on 7/8/16). Hell, this Summer is already well ahead of last year from a general t'storm perspective (there was a complete dearth of general thunderstorm activity from March to July in 2016 this year. As bad as this season looks to start off, my hope is that it can't possibly be much worse than last year. There has to be something else going on (besides bad luck) from a pattern perspective in order for this crap to keep happening, especially when locations in just about every other direction have managed solid severe weather episodes.

Powerball Posted June 20, 2017 Share Posted June 20, 2017 BTW, bring on the death ridges. Detroit seems to do best from a severe weather perspective when we get those. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know if I would say clobbered...certainly some severe events this way (mostly 1-2" hail, some gusty wind), and aside from the Feb 28/Mar 1 event, it's been relatively quiet here, too. You wouldn't know it if you tracked the warnings on paper, though. Although it's not unusual, we have had far more warnings than damage reports so far.

I'm coming in on a big bird so no issues for me, but they've cancelled several regional flights as those aircraft can't take off at temps at 118 or above. Pretty wildly early for this to my recollection. PHX ended up with a high of 118 today. The all-time record is 122, which probably won't be matched, but incredibly hot in any case.

UMB WX Posted June 20, 2017 Share Posted June 20, 2017 give me 112 in vegas anytime. over 85/72 110+ we walked the streets as usual and never really felt uncomfortable. I'd be camped out in the AC if it was 85/72 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hoosier Posted June 20, 2017 Share Posted June 20, 2017 Forecast is calling for 120 in Phoenix. Not sure if they will make it as the temp is the same as yesterday at this time. But they've hit 120+ a total of 3 times, so it would be pretty significant if it gets there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cyclone77 Posted June 21, 2017 Share Posted June 21, 2017 I sure wish they could somehow find a way to install an ASOS, or even a AWOS site in Death Valley at the most extreme location. The place has such exceptional weather conditions it needs to be sampled by official NWS equipment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree, I think a few records could be shattered especially lower in elevation, however not even sure how some of these areas wold even be accessible.
