While May 1911 was one of the warmest on record, the summer of 1911 was not an exceptionally hot summer here; however there was a brutal heatwave July 1-5 which caused some loss of life and a ton of discomfort. It made the front page of the daily newspaper each day.

Thanks. The end of May that year was insane per data.

LOT techs have been trying to fix their radar for a couple of days now. They keep saying it should be fixed in a few hours, only to push it back. Maybe they should just smack it like I used to do my old tv to try to get it operational.

One surprise is Chicago having a max temp of 97 compared to 96 for St. Louis. I'd have to think St. Louis might end up winning by the time summer ends.

STL hit 100 today.  They actually beat ORD's 2018 high of 97 yesterday though when they reached 98.

Just got back from Iceland, the best country on the planet. I climbed the largest glacier in Europe (drink water right from one of the mini waterfalls on it), got to see Seals swimming in a lagoon where ice was falling off the glacier into icebergs in the water, sunken volcanoes, exploding geysers, black sand beaches, gigantic waterfalls around every corner, huge cliffs overlooking the ocean, just breathtaking stuff. Highly recommend it to anyone looking for a travel destination.

A little snippet from the DVN AFD back on this day in 2011.  Can't even fathom something like this being written now with how slow this year has been.  Almost doesn't seem possible.

. SHORT WAVE COMBINED WITH FRONTAL
BOUNDARY AND HIGH CAPES SUGGEST POTENTIAL FOR EXPLOSIVE DEVELOPMENT
OF THUNDERSTORMS IF CAP BREAKS. IF THIS SCENARIO PANS OUT THEN A
DESTRUCTIVE DERECHO WITH WINDS OVER 100 MPH IS CERTAINLY POSSIBLE.
CORFIDI VECTORS WOULD TAKE THE THUNDERSTORMS SOUTHEAST ACROSS MUCH OF THE DVN CWA.

One of my favorite fails by them.

Will Dallas hit 110?  They haven't done it since 2011.  NAM output for Friday would actually be near their all-time record high.  GFS is cooler.

 

 

The core of the heat isn't even over TX yet...and Dallas (Love Field) is currently 107/61/109.  Assuming no remnant clouds from potential storms to the north tomorrow and Friday, you'd have to think 109-110 is possible.

Euro agrees with the NAM.

Euro actually has a streak of 110 there through the end of the weekend.  It has 850 mb temps in the upper 20s/near 30C so that could be possible if it's that warm aloft with good mixing.

Yeah as long as Monday or Tuesday.
