cyclone77 Posted July 11, 2017 Share Posted July 11, 2017 Nice little MCS rolling in this morning. Had quite a bit of wind with it earlier. Gonna miss just south here, but may get the northern edge of it at work in a bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hoosier Posted July 11, 2017 Share Posted July 11, 2017 Well, here's the HRRRx for tomorrow. Showing some triple digit readings. Wonder if anyone will actually make it. St. Louis is usually as good a candidate as any. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hoosier Posted July 11, 2017 Share Posted July 11, 2017 I see STL got to 101 today, which suggests that 100s are a lock tomorrow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hawkeye_wx Posted July 11, 2017 Share Posted July 11, 2017 Dews have reached 80 in Ames, Marshalltown, and Cedar Rapids, along the boundary where that lone storm has formed. Here in town the school stations say upper 70s. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The airports in St. Louis metro were quite hot and somewhat dry. They had lower dew points around St. Louis. Otherwise it was mainly 92 with dew point around 70-76.

Hoosier Posted July 12, 2017 Share Posted July 12, 2017 I noticed there's a 10 degree spread in the record highs for today between the official records for Chicago and Midway Airport (97 at the official site of the University of Chicago in 1936, and 107 at Midway in 1936). Got me thinking about how much hotter those 1930s heatwaves would look in the official records for Chicago had the official site been located farther away from the lake.

Spartman Posted July 12, 2017 Share Posted July 12, 2017 Only topped at 82 thanks to the MCS which really punished IND while DAY received 0.18". Based on NWS and TWC (which originally fluctuated between 90 and 91 for tomorrow's forecast high), it's nearly definite that I'll get 89'd and/or only topping out in the upper 80s.

Hoosier Posted July 12, 2017 Share Posted July 12, 2017 HRRR has 101 in St. Louis. It was a little underdone today and with slightly warmer thermal profiles on Wednesday, they might be able to pull off 103 or something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spartman Posted July 12, 2017 Share Posted July 12, 2017 Currently at 78 as of 9:56am. NWS and TWC rooting for 90, but looks impossible due to debris clouds coming from an MCS up near Chicago and the state of Michigan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
