From NWS GRB: .SHORT TERM...Tonight and Saturday Issued at 238 PM CDT Fri Jun 12 2020 Quiet conditions return to the region over the course of the short term forecast as high pressure establishes itself and temperatures drop well below normal. Skies will clear out tonight as the surface high drops southwards over the Great lakes from Canada. CAA will be in full force tonight, bringing well below normal temperatures and drier air. Clear skies and light winds will allow temperatures to drop into the lower 30s and possibly upper 20s, which has prompted the frost advisory for northern Wisconsin tonight. It`s note worthy that the high pressure center will be near 1033mb during this time, which is near record, just a few days after portions of Wisconsin observed record low pressure from the remnants of Cristobal. Saturday, skies will remain mostly clear with cool and dry air in place. Highs will head into the middle to upper 60s, possibly getting back up into the lower 70s. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OrdIowPitMsp Posted June 13, 2020 Share Posted June 13, 2020 6am on June 13th 2020 and Silver Bay MN is sitting at 28F. Just incredible. Ely MN not far behind at 30F and numerous 34F readings along the Iron Range. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There was a very light frost on my truck but none on the roof or the ground... coldest I could find in the UP was 25 degrees at Baraga Plains, Kearsarge 26, Kenton was 27 and Doe Lake, 29. Yesterday morning was 36, the high only topping out at 52 and with windy conditions all day, it was the perfect day to cut firewood. No bugs! One more chilly night in the 30's tonight will make it three in a row. Pretty rare for mid June. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
patrick05 Posted June 13, 2020 Share Posted June 13, 2020 Have you guys seen that message about the NWS Proposed Changes to the alerts that they use? Basically, getting rid of the "Advisory" messages, among others. I only saw it on the NWS-LOT Page along with the link to the NWS Survey. I've filled it out but I wonder how many are for or against it. Here's the link to the NWS Page (the link to the actual survey is on there). https://www.weather.gov/lot/AdvisoryChange Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here's the link to the NWS Page (the link to the actual survey is on there). https://www.weather.gov/lot/AdvisoryChange I attended a NOAA webinar a couple of weeks ago about the proposed changes. They are just going to put out statements such as, "2-4 inches of snow is expected overnight." I had to laugh because then Elliot Jacks of NOAA then said, "But we don't want to call them statements either. We don't want to put a name on them." What the hell are they if they aren't statements? I know that you can say they are just a forecast, but they are stating what's expected, so what's wrong with calling it a statement? BTW, I don't mind advisories, but the public is sometimes easily confused by NWS products and if it can slow the confusion, go for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They have a purpose to raise awareness of heightened weather situations. I mean a freezing rain advisory can be significant. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Torchageddon Posted June 14, 2020 Share Posted June 14, 2020 If my 7 day is to be believed, then potentally one of the best stretches in several years is underway! 6 days in a row of "not a cloud in the sky" weather with low humidity and comfortable temps. Can I take some of this and sprinkle it on January? 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And my thoughts are the same. Doing away with the advisories is not something I would favor. Advisories are a true weenies saving grace when you are going to miss a 6-12" snowstorm by 50 miles and WSWarning. You can soothe yourself with a WWA despite the fact your looking at a DAB. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cyclone77 Posted June 15, 2020 Share Posted June 15, 2020 These dews are crazy low for mid June. Dipped into the 30s over a large part of the sub, with some upper 20s as well as pointed out by madwx. Someone must have tripped over a cord at HRRRv headquarters. Model hasn't updated since Thursday. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's ridiculous and I'm sure the fool amateur weather pages that spread fake news and 16 Day GFS plots which transition into the public mocking meteorogists for being "wrong" is behind this proposed change. I voted strongly against it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
michsnowfreak Posted June 15, 2020 Share Posted June 15, 2020 Impressively chilly morning for mid June in Southeast Michigan today. 46 at DTW missed the record low by 4° (however if that was tomorrow it would be the record low). But most of the more outlying areas in Southeast Michigan fell to 38 to 42ﾟ I actually wonder if some of the high elevations of the northern suburbs had a brief light frost? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Back-to-back 43F mornings here. Pretty chilly for mid-June but the sun angle means a very quick rebound unlike autumn conditions. Definitely not looking forward to 90+ later this week. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Im still in Lansing, and my PAC has heat advisory levels. (3 days with 90+). Be interesting to see if it comes to fruition or not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cyclone77 Posted June 15, 2020 Share Posted June 15, 2020 Another afternoon with dews in the 40s and a fresh east breeze. It can stay like this all summer as far as I'm concerned. Very boring weather from an enthusiast standpoint though I guess. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
