cyclone77 Posted May 13, 2022 Share Posted May 13, 2022 DVN hit 97. 3 away from 100, not bad for May 12. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
frostfern Posted May 13, 2022 Share Posted May 13, 2022 The dewpoints crashed from above 70 yesterday afternoon into the low 40s this afternoon. 87 was the high both yesterday and today, so no temperature change. Just went from tropical warmth to semi-arid warmth. It seems like the mid-Michigan backdoor dryline is a new climate feature as of late. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will have to wait for the final number for ORD but it'll either be 91 or 92 (92 would tie the record) Expand It’s so obvious ORD is cold biased. Any reason why the sensor itself can’t be replaced?

josh_4184 Posted May 13, 2022 Share Posted May 13, 2022 Hit 91 imby was enjoying every moment of it. Pretty crazy temp drop for TC yesterday when the lake Mich AC kicked in. We did torch for May pretty crazy temps for this area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Expand I wonder if it's really cold biased or if it's moreso that it lost the warm bias that it had on daytime highs. Chi Storm would remember better than me but I believe there was a period of time where there was a lot of construction happening around the ob site. I think the ob location also moved to a different location on the airport grounds, so maybe that is a factor? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

beavis1729 Posted May 13, 2022 Share Posted May 13, 2022 The 96 in Traverse City is insane. The low of 74 yesterday morning in Rockford barely held on through 1AM …so a new all-time warmest min temp record for May was set. Old record 73 on 5/22/1905.

Expand Yeah if you look at MDW vs ORD 2020 was definitely an anomaly where ORD had a warm bias. Compared to MDW at least.

Expand Traverse City is a terrain-induced hot spot whenever the wind is SE. It's normally only about 3 degrees warmer though. It's strange as the lapse rate would have to be super-adiabatic on the extreme end to get 6 degrees warmer than Gaylord (based on elevation alone), but it has happened before. It's kind of a meteorological mystery to me how that city can get so toasty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brian D Posted May 13, 2022 Share Posted May 13, 2022 0.79" of rain yesterday. That's 1.63" for a 2 day total here in town. 3.16" for the month so far. Forecast for the next few days looks pretty mellow, with temps in the 50's-60's with some shower chances. Seasonal to cooler conditions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
