bowtie` Posted July 12, 2021 Share Posted July 12, 2021 7 hours ago, Brian D said: Low 80's with very smoky skies. Even last night, the smoke was thick up there. Edit: Added sat photo. You can see how much there is across MN. If that Canadian smoke ever meets up with the Pacific Northwest smoke coming around the ridge out west, it is going to be some very yellow sunsets if this boundary ever gets out of here. On second thought , it is probably better for my lungs and breathing if the smoke stays away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chicago WX Posted July 12, 2021 Share Posted July 12, 2021 I'm certainly no fan of the high heat/humidity combo...but this struggling to get into the low 70's everyday with solid overcast that'd make January blush, is for the birds. Misery mist at times too. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Harry Perry Posted July 12, 2021 Share Posted July 12, 2021 Yeah, this is for the birds. 5th straight day of garbage. Does not feel like the second week of July. Upper level low after upper level low. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brian D Posted July 12, 2021 Share Posted July 12, 2021 Upper 70's with a nice Lake breeze and still smoky today. Should clear out some tomorrow as front moves in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cyclone77 Posted July 12, 2021 Share Posted July 12, 2021 Most boring spring/summer for weather in my lifetime no doubt about it. Hopefully something in late July or August helps to make up for it. Picked up 0.13 of light rain earlier. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hawkeye_wx Posted July 14, 2021 Share Posted July 14, 2021 This morning's storms mostly split around me. The initial strong line barely wet the ground. A trailing cell got me up to 0.24". I need tonight's action to perform well. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brian D Posted July 15, 2021 Share Posted July 15, 2021 While the storms have gotten ferocious south of me in Iowa, temps peaked in the upper 60's to around 70 here by mid-day then have been slowly dropping all aftrn into the low 60's on a stiff Lake breeze. Back to the heat this weekend with upper 80's - low 90's forecast. Stay safe folks!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cyclone77 Posted July 15, 2021 Share Posted July 15, 2021 Picked up another 0.73" this evening, had 45mph winds from the garden variety line of storms. Up to almost 2" in past 12hrs, was briefly in tor watch earlier which was kind of exciting lol. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hawkeye_wx Posted July 15, 2021 Share Posted July 15, 2021 The big line of storms split around Cedar Rapids last evening, so I only picked up 0.10". My July total is only 0.58", with no rain expected for the next 10+ days. Keep in mind, the WPC has had Cedar Rapids getting 3+" of rain twice this month, but combined I've only received 0.58". 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chicago WX Posted July 15, 2021 Share Posted July 15, 2021 If I had received all the rain WPC has predicted for MBY this summer (and my p&c forecasts as well), I'd be over 30" for the season. Anyways, been a nice couple of days with no rain. Hopefully we can avoid most of it later today and tomorrow as well. Then it looks like a nice warm and dry stretch for a time. Pool time incoming. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Torchageddon Posted July 15, 2021 Share Posted July 15, 2021 We have a rare pair of tornadic, long-track supercells underway in the Barrie Corridor of ON that have produced damage in the southern suburbs of Barrie (its always Barrie): I haven't seen hook echos like that in Ontario probably since I've been following weather!! Two of them! Also the first debris ball I've seen on radar here . And I love this, someone caught TWN with their pants down with another tech difficulty as the met's mic was active unknowingly and she muttered "holy shit" and "holy f***" multiple times!! : Didn't they get enough practice from June 26 when we had the Amberley and Chatsworth tornadoes? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Torchageddon Posted July 15, 2021 Share Posted July 15, 2021 I just got some showers late this morning from pop up weak storms which worked or screwed over my atmosphere. Just very cloudy here still while twisters rip through the usual tornado-prone areas of SON: People on twitter rightfully dunking on EC for NOT WARNING a tornado in progress, there is a report that the warning came out 2 minutes after reports of damage 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Torchageddon Posted July 15, 2021 Share Posted July 15, 2021 https://www.instagram.com/p/CRXAHXQFPyN/?utm_medium=copy_link I can't believe it. Canada has stole the show in 2021 for tornado footage! That first one may be some of the best footage ever captured of a tornado in Ontario. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
