Hoosier Posted June 24, 2022 Author Share Posted June 24, 2022 Out of curiosity, I checked today's 12z model 2m temp progs for Rockford for today (away from any lake influence), and they were all underdone by anywhere from 2 to 8 degrees or so. I looked at like a dozen models, from globals to hi-res stuff, and nothing had them getting to 91. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian D Posted June 24, 2022 Share Posted June 24, 2022 Looks like 50-60 mph gusts, and up to 1.5" hail with these cells. Not moving to fast, either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hawkeye_wx Posted June 24, 2022 Share Posted June 24, 2022 An area of showers to the west and south has produced an area of cloudiness which has overspread my area today. The recent pattern has been almost 100% sun for many days, so today's cloudy sky is a nice break. Models are mixed regarding the possible storm action late tonight into Saturday morning. I sure hope it doesn't bust because this is the only chance for another week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cyclone77 Posted June 24, 2022 Share Posted June 24, 2022 MLI underachieved today with a lowly 89. Hit 91 here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Torchageddon Posted June 25, 2022 Share Posted June 25, 2022 This is the 3rd day in a row with blues skies, pretty much the best wx during the year here. Temps are just perfect keeping things comfy at 88F for a high with modest lows/low DP so things don't become too oppressive. TWN forecasting another 34C/93F high with some humidity tomorrow which is kind of wild. Can we turn this into another infamous week like June 2020 featured? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hawkeye_wx Posted June 25, 2022 Share Posted June 25, 2022 My area got hit hard overnight. My 2.38" makes my yard one of the drier locations. There are many stations to the south and northeast reporting 3-4", with 5+" just southeast of Cedar Rapids. We also received several hours of lightning and thunder (a few of those hours were only distant lightning and light rumbles). The final cell this morning produced the best lightning and thunder of the last couple years. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cyclone77 Posted June 25, 2022 Share Posted June 25, 2022 Flash drought cancel. At least for most of the DVN cwa. Picked up 1.49" so far, with quite a bit still on the way it appears as the LLJ will continue to fire stuff this morning, and then another round later this afternoon. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A-L-E-K Posted June 25, 2022 Share Posted June 25, 2022 not gonna post a big number here but we've been a bit wetter locally so this should help keep drought from progressing into the area Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chicago Storm Posted June 25, 2022 Share Posted June 25, 2022 The current activity (last night/today) in the region, and then a potentially more widespread wetter/active period on the way for early July should keep the drought in check for many (Not all) areas.I’ll have a bit more info in the summer thread later today. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

frostfern Posted June 25, 2022 Share Posted June 25, 2022 Michigan screw zone going strong. All precip deflected. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian D Posted June 25, 2022 Share Posted June 25, 2022 Another 1/2" of rain last night with a nice lightning show. 2.92" so far with 4.23" the norm for the month. More rain chances forecast for the rest of month, so might end near normal. Looks like a little needed rain in the southern sub today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cyclone77 Posted June 25, 2022 Share Posted June 25, 2022 Up to 1.94" from morning downpours. Still a shot at another round later today/this evening. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hoosier Posted June 25, 2022 Author Share Posted June 25, 2022 Hope this stuff lingering into afternoon doesn't screw things up later, as what has fallen so far here is not enough to be more than marginally beneficial anyway. Quite possible it's the last chance of rain until July. I do agree with Chi Storm that we are likely going to enter a regime with more regular precip chances next month, but precise placement of those is anyone's guess.

frostfern Posted June 25, 2022 Share Posted June 25, 2022 Very very screwed north of I-90 and east of Lake Michigan even into July. This endless parade of weak-ass fronts that only shunt the moisture south without producing anything isn't going to cut it. Every single goddamn MCS dies when it hits Michigan, day or night. WTF? Is this climate change? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hoosier Posted June 26, 2022 Author Share Posted June 26, 2022 Upstream radar not looking too dazzling for good rains. Looks like we may be LSRDZ'd (light stratiform rain death zoned). We'll see if it can perk up a bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cyclone77 Posted June 26, 2022 Share Posted June 26, 2022 Today's nearly 2" put us up to 4.12" for June. The dry period over the past 15+ days really didn't have much impact on the area corn crop. Most fields the corn is already waist high. Think with today's precip the area's crops are ensured to be about as good as they can be unless locusts or hail strike later this summer lol. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IWXwx Posted June 26, 2022 Share Posted June 26, 2022 Had a noisy storm roll through around 3-4 AM. Although it woke me, it was music too my ears. I actually got up and watched it for a few minutes. Unfortunately, it only dropped four tenths, which is not enough to be a drought buster, but at least I won't have to water my garden for a couple of days. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Torchageddon Posted June 26, 2022 Share Posted June 26, 2022 I was suppose to get light showers this morning and then chance of storms later on, I woke up to sunny breaks and turns out, no rain at all! Temp over-performing too because sunny breaks in the overcast. It would be hilarious if I can get through another heat event without any storms but today I'm getting July 8, 2007 vibes with this overcast and muggy Sun afternoon. A F1 tornado that was photogenic touched down 20 mins away from me and it was also a unicorn Supercell that went due south from the peninsula that brought me the worst hail storm I've ever seen here, including the absurd report of tennis ball sized hail in Harriston. I'm not snoozing on today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
