Brian D Posted June 23 Share Posted June 23 Beautiful day. Started off cloudy, and cool, but sun popped out late am, and now in the low 70's with a 60 dew. Should peak out in the mid 70's soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brian D Posted June 24 Share Posted June 24 Clouds moved in late am, and temps sitting in the mid 60's (around 70 inland). Some virga overhead atm. If this persists through the aftrn, going to inhibit stm formation later up this way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cyclone77 Posted June 24 Share Posted June 24 Solid area of low 80 degree dews just west of I-35 in IA this afternoon. MLI 89'd so far, but may have hit 90 after climo report came out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
frostfern Posted June 25 Share Posted June 25 I got an unforecasted quality garden variety boomer last night at 1 am. 0.5" of rain. Grass still looking some brown but slowly clawing out of the flash mini-drought. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It has been pretty boring as things have pretty much found a way to go around MBY since mid-May. At least mowing has been reduced with mostly brown grass and only weeds are growing. I am sure it will change soon as I have a lot business travel to do; it will likely turn into a great pattern. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was the same here until yesterday, and then this morning. Thankfully it wasn’t quite as bad as expected due to the overnight stable layer. Oddly, a cell that formed out ahead of the bow produced a severe gust out of the south (estimating around 60 mph) that took down a huge branch right on the house. Locust tree has major rot going on in the lower branches, so stuff was just waiting to come down. The main rear inflow jet stayed aloft at MBY though. I saw the shelf race overhead from the north right after that initial cell moved east, but hardly any wind at the surface. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not looking good on radar for me you can see it splitting apart east of Lansing!!. Oh well nothing I can do to change it How was the lightning with it??

weatherbo Posted June 25 Share Posted June 25 Caught the northern extent of the precip last night. A little thunder and lightning and .43" of rain. Should turn sunny and breezy today with an early high in the upper 70's before cooling. Low in the upper 40's tonight and low 40's tomorrow night. Probably some scattered 30's in the usual spots. Have only had 3 80's this year so far, an 81, 81, and 86. That's looks to continue for a bit. Can't believe it's almost July. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh well nothing I can do to change it How was the lightning with it?? The best lightning was with the small cluster ahead of the bow. There were quite a few positive CGs estimating about 2 miles to my SW. The big shelf that rolled in from the NW didn’t have much other than soft IC rumble and moderate rain. It wasn’t surface based. I see the winds did penetrate to the surface some areas though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clouds did a number yesterday on development. They moved through quickly, so it limited rain amounts. Looking at a high around 80 today on a W wind. Looks like 60's n 70's the rest of the week with a strong shot at stms again Friday. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Torchageddon Posted June 25 Share Posted June 25 Yesterday had perfect wx, one of about 12 days you'd get during the warmer months. It was 24C humidex of 27 with blue skies, just the right breeze, and even some cumulus off in the distance for decoration. Made sure I got a lot of that sun as today is overcast and windy, rain delayed and reduced. This windy June thing is still going. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's 11 am, and already upper 70's- low 80's around here. Low 70's on the shoreline. Dews low 60's, so not at all oppressive. Very beautiful, summer day. Take it while I can. As side note, it's so nice to have clear, blue skies, and not that smoky crap like last year, or even earlier in May. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
