westMJim Posted May 2, 2022 Report Share Posted May 2, 2022 The official H/L at Grand Rapids was 58/46. There was 0.02" of rain fall here at my house. There was more sunshine at Lansing to the east where the high did reach 63. With lots of clouds the overnight low was 47 and my house, GRR and Lansing.

It was a great time and the weather was perfect albeit a bit breezy the last couple of nights. Looks like a lot of rain heading for Chi this week. Geeze, what a wet spring so far.

westMJim Posted May 2, 2022 Report Share Posted May 2, 2022 While it has been a cold April here in much of west Michigan it has been even colder off to the north. At Duluth where records have been kept since 1875 the high for the month was just 50 that was the 2nd coldest high for any April at Duluth with the 49 in 1917 being the coldest. While there has been some discussion as to why GR has been colder than Lansing to the east. To the east of Duluth at Ashland, WI the high for April was a warmer 64 and to the east of Ashland at Marquette the high for the month was 73. As for the departures from average at Duluth it was -5.7° at Ashland it was -3.5 and at Marquette it was -2.2. Remember all 3 locations are on Lake Superior. So I guess it was much worse if one lived way up north 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CentralNebWeather Posted May 2, 2022 Report Share Posted May 2, 2022 Another day, another track meet cancelled. That would make 4 track meets cancelled this season for our HS team. Cold and wet weather to blame. Our HS meet last Friday was called due to lightning with 5 events left, so I guess we lost 4 1/2 meets. I don't coach track, but our son is a sophomore. We host the conference meet this Thursday, but talk is that might be moved to Friday as the 2nd system affects our area Tuesday night through Thursday. Update, track meet has been moved from Thursday to Friday. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phil Posted May 3, 2022 Report Share Posted May 3, 2022 Backdoor cold front is through the area as of 7AM. Low clouds and easterly flow to start the day.

The overnight low here was 46, So far the rain has held off and at the current time it is cloudy and 48 here at my house. The rain is now just to the SW so it will be here shortly and it looks to be here for a while. Looking ahead it looks like we will soon end this cold wet pattern and maybe slide right into a warmer pattern.

Tom Posted May 3, 2022 Report Share Posted May 3, 2022 Back in the saddle after a nice short trip to Vegas for a couple of days. The buzz was in the air as the NFL Draft was taking place. I visited numerous hotels and casinos but the one that caught my eye was the new Hilton on the strip and centrally located. They did a magnificent job with the architecture and design (https://www.hilton.com/en/hotels/lashhhh-las-vegas-hilton-at-resorts-world/). I highly recommend this place if anyone is planning a trip out there. Alright, alright, alright, who's ready for some Summer Heat....and Humidity??? Wowza, from having the Furnace On....to the A/C in a matter of a couple days according to the Euro. This is going to be a welcomed instant surge from nature. 1st 90's of the season are quite possible. The Euro is notorious for pumping the SER so take it with a grain of salt. Still, though, this is gonna feel like summer. Meantime, out here we will be on the 100F watch for Thu & Fri which are likely to be the 1st official 100F+ readings of the year. 7 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Indeed, I think the Euro gets a bit overdone with temps in the D5+ range but with the blocking waning and the SER flexing its muscle this may end up come close. The EPS is very warm next Mon-Fri and even extends the warmth through the following weekend while the GEFS cut it short and cooling filters in by Thu/Fri.

james1976 Posted May 3, 2022 Report Share Posted May 3, 2022 Yeah some nice spring temps would be nice but I'll take the heat after the gloomy 40s and 50s we've had for what seems like forever now. A few people are just starting to mow their lawns. I think by next week I will be. Up in Vadnais Heights things are not as green yet. Might be a couple weeks before we have to mow up there.
