As we approach the month, in which we celebrate of our countries birthday, Independence Day, let's discuss the trends and potential weather patterns that may be depicted during the month of July. TBH, July is one of my favorite months for many reasons. For one, I'm a pyro guy and love blowing off fireworks or watching them at the shows held across the country.
Having said that, Mother Nature may have her own set of Fireworks during the long holiday weekend between the 2nd - 4th in the central Plains/Midwest region.
Will we see our first Anticyclone develop post holiday??? Using the LRC, I think we stand a good chance at some darn good heat/humidity to blossom over much of the forum.
12z EPS starting to hone in on the developing heat wave Day 8-10...


How long will this heat last??? Will this month be a repeat of June??? Let's discuss....

I think July will not be as chilly as June was. We will see. I'm hoping not because after July, its all downhill from there. Average high and lows tend to drop, days getting shorter and etc.

@Okwx, this is a loud signal to a major heat dome just beyond Day 10...

Yeah. I know. :-/. That escalated quickly.
I had another hernia surgery yesterday so I won't be working for at least the next 13-20 days. When I go back, maybe there will only be a difficult 4 weeks of summer left.

I hope you have a speedy recovery. It's still 10 days out, but you never know with this summer pattern. The ridge might end up being farther north across the high plains/GL's for a brief period. Don't think it locks and holds like earlier in the month of June.
Btw, here are the temp/precip trends on the CFSv2...

Thanks for the well wishes buddy! It's odd for a man my age and of my health to have one hernia, let alone 2 in less than a year's time. I'm very sore today but I'll live.
I do forget that the models have been running warm in my region ever since the end of April. Maybe July comes out average to slightly below here with August close to normal as well. I think the latter half of August into most of September should be really cool this year but that's a long way off still. This is a July discussion. Lol.

June was a scorcher here in Eastern Iowa for a good chunk of the month. It's only been the last week that it's been cool here. We had multiple days into the 90s for highs. I'm hoping for closer to normal temps in the 80s for July.

Latest 12z GFS trends for the Lakes/Midwest region is the "cool" should "rule" with comfortable temps in the 70's for most, if not, all of the long holiday weekend. Almost near picture perfect weather if you ask me, except for maybe hit or miss showers Sat/Sun.

Here is the 00z EPS forecast for Hr 270 showing a lot of inconsistency where the ridge may develop beyond the holiday...if it does shift farther west, NW Flow will be the theme for a lot of members..."Ring of Fire" pattern???

If im reading that hr 270 model correctly it looks like its hinting at it being more west?? Yeah.....that would mean more NW flow around here. Count me in!

It doesn't happen often, but the Euro is trending towards the GFS in the 6-10 day range. A lot cooler now compare to what it was showing a couple days ago and could put a wrench into the 4th festivities.

12z EPS follows the trend and flips cooler from what it was showing a couple days ago...very interesting...something I really wasn't expecting but, nonetheless, it may be something to consider as we roll on through the summer pattern.

A break is definitely needed there. Sounds like it has been way too hot in E. Iowa.

Skilling mentioned hottest temps of the summer next week. We already had 95, so looks like he's going against latest trends as well.

4th of July weekend looks like near perfection for Chitown. Mostly Sunny skies, low dews and temps near 80F for pretty much the entire stretch Sat-Tue. Maybe a pop up shower or storm here or there but def not a washout.

With all the crops growing and vegetation pretty much in full bloom, I'm sure those dews will have no problem creeping up into the mid/upper 70's. 00z GFS showing some parts of E NE/W IA with dews approaching 80F...yuck!

LOL, right??? Your enjoying delightful weather conditions. That is prime time weather when it's in the 70's and less than 50F dewpoints. I remember last year, ORD temps were in the 90's and dewpoints at, or near 80F...the air was so thick you had difficulty working out...let alone breathe!

The latest JMA weeklies still suggesting a wet/active central CONUS where it has been of late. Ridges off both coasts would imply a cooler/near average temp pattern for the central region.

Wow. Ofc that map does not tell us if the ice is 20 ft thick just 20 mm thick, but that seems to me like a lot of coverage for end of June. Do you know if it's normal for ice to remain all summer up there? That's no doubt been aiding these below normal spells as air feeds down over that "ice cube"

Not sure if this is an atmospheric response to the lower SOI of late, but an El Nino signature showing up in the central PAC near Hawaii as a more active subtropical jet may be starting beyond Day 10. This also will contribute to a more active Monsoon signal later next week in the desert SW.

Arctic temps back towards the Freezing Line...it may rebound a little over the next 5 days or so, but trends in the 6-10 are for the Arctic as a whole to cool down.

12z EPS suggests by Day 8-10 sub normal temps to take over...a lot of subnormal temps in the northern latitudes...


If the CFSv2 is right, Greenland and others will be chilly during the month of July...

I hope every will have a safe and enjoyable 4th of July weekend! I'm heading out to the west coast and cool off by the beaches of San Diego, specifically, Carlsbad Village area. Temps along the beaches are supposed to hover in the mid/upper 60's while just a few miles inland your in the mid 70's and they go up quick as you head farther inland. Looking forward to seeing the ocean and some "eye candy".

Happy Independence Day to you and all posting peeps! Enjoy those cooler temps Tom. Have you given up on IL for the summer??
@ Cansips for July - You're painting mby in green!

Have not given up just yet! Just a little longer stay than usual. Lots of exciting things happening with work. I'll be back sometime this month. At least, that's the plan for now. Enjoy Pure Michigan!

Sweet! Do you have family out there or just visiting?

I hope every will have a safe and enjoyable 4th of July weekend! I'm heading out to the west coast and cool off by the beaches of San Diego, specifically, Carlsbad Village area. Temps along the beaches are supposed to hover in the mid/upper 60's while just a few miles inland your in the mid 70's and they go up quick as you head farther inland. Looking forward to seeing the ocean and some "eye candy".
Watch out for the Sharks.

Where are you heading for the Fireworks? Any recommendations? I read Oceanside has them on the 3rd and Carlsbad on the 4th.
On another note, it's so nice to have arrived last night and instantly feel the moisture and cooler air as we got across the mountain range. Too bad it's cloudy this morning but I'm not complaining either. 67F feels so d**n good. The locals nickname the clouds early in the day "June Gloom". We're in July...Let's go!

Legoland's fireworks are always fun to watch. They're viewable from just about anywhere in Carlsbad.
