RCNYILWX Posted July 15, 2017 Share Posted July 15, 2017 Nah, when has that ever happened? We'll see what the 00z Euro run shows tonight but the 12z run slightly trended toward the GFS and Canadian which have been consistently showing the more active ring of fire type setup being farther south into IA, IL and IN. It's all about the strength and position of the ridge, which looking at Thursday's 12z Euro vs Friday's, Friday's run showed a bit weaker and farther southwest mid level ridge position.

Now the 12z GFS got a bit stronger with the ridge midweek. Maybe we will get a happy medium. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, it looks pretty warm, especially with the 12z GFS shifting north. However, back in June the Euro consistently had mid to upper 90s here for multiple days and the best we could do was low 90s.

Chicago Storm Posted July 15, 2017 Share Posted July 15, 2017 Yeah, it looks pretty warm, especially with the 12z GFS shifting north. However, back in June the Euro consistently had mid to upper 90s here for multiple days and the best we could do was low 90s.It seems to have a warm bias in warmest areas. It did the same thing this past week.Likely will be the same for the upcoming period as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cyclone77 Posted July 15, 2017 Share Posted July 15, 2017 One thing's for sure, if the heat doesn't build in too strong it still looks humid as hell lol. Sure hope the GFS is overdoing moisture, as this would be pretty awful lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I look at it as being "unsettled" and there has been a ton of rain but it hasn't gotten in my way too much. I do have a problem with the lack of sunshine (last 2 days its been very dark overcast). Last summer was the warmest on record. This upcoming week doesn't look to bad. Besides tomorrows rain showers, it should be sunny and warm till atleast Wednesday. About time! Can you believe it hasn't rained in Vancouver in a month! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EDIT: Regarding the Euro/GEM vs. GFS ridge placement battle, I had to lol at Todd at North Webster in his discussion: Blended pop guidance remains an unmitigated disaster and will continue with significant targeted adjustments Wed-Fri.

cyclone77 Posted July 16, 2017 Share Posted July 16, 2017 12z GFS has unrelenting tropical humidity starting Tuesday, and lasting until Thursday the 27th.

weatherbo Posted July 16, 2017 Share Posted July 16, 2017 58 for a high so far today with gorgeous blue skies. Cool tonight with a low in my point of 40. MQT's record low tonight is 40, so that could be broken. Also possible that Spincich Lake, Doe Lake, and Baraga plains could see temps low enough for a light frost. Happens about once or twice a summer in those locations. Looks like excellent viewing of the northern lights tonight! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Makes sense if 850's are actually that warm and there's good mixing. But that's the question, isn't it. Ha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Speaking of the Plains, there was one recently out in Omaha where the temp jumped to around 90 overnight. Although it is less common in this part of the country, my guess is that overall these things happen more frequently than previously thought. It's easy to miss... you really have to be looking at obs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
