We had a brief extremely heavy downpour in North Platte last night, which is where we stayed the night. We were in Colorado, got to go to the Summit of Pikes Peak. What a beautiful part of the country. Been up there, also on Mt. Evans. Absolutely insane how far up it goes... Got headaches from the altitude sickness!

Tom Posted July 5, 2022 Report Share Posted July 5, 2022 Nature certainly delivered fireworks around here and thankfully it came after most of the fireworks displays. All in all, great timing and plenty of rain fell. My area was under the ribbon of training storms last night. I crashed out early and only woke up briefly to the sound of thunder/lightning. Pretty much slept through the whole event. 7 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom Posted July 5, 2022 Report Share Posted July 5, 2022 I stepped outside this morning and its warm and muggy...73F/72F, today will feature the type of day "the air you wear"...Heat Advisory issued and storms should Fire up along the Lake Breeze boundary right around dinner time. I always enjoy these set ups bc you can literally see the storms bubble up overhead and the majestic beauty of the cumulonimbus clouds that erect high into the atmosphere. Glad that the real severe stuff never ended up transpiring but today that could be a different story. I think hail and winds will be the biggest threat along with Flooding from the training nature. Out of all the higher rez models, the WRF-ARW2 came the closest to what transpired...most of the models were showing the storms to track north of here. Earlier in the day yesterday, the model runs had my area in the bullseye and that is what ended up happening. 0z GEFS...Next 5 days look like this area could be the magnet... 0z Euro... Looking for relief??? It's coming later this week/weekend for the MW/GL's and east coast...then the rest of our Sub will see a strong Summer time CF penetrate deep into the south Week 2...even into the TX Dome??? @Andie @OKwx2k4 @Iceresistance 6 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
westMJim Posted July 5, 2022 Report Share Posted July 5, 2022 Most of the area finally received a good rain fall. Here in MBY I recorded a total of 0.82” of rain fall in last nights showers and thundershowers. Looks like the official amount at GRR was 0.83” The official H/L yesterday at Grand Rapids was 90/62 there was a total of 0.71” of rain fall before midnight the day had 54% of possible sunshine. For today the average H/L is 83/62 the record high of 101 was set in 2012 (note here in MBY I recorded a unofficial high of 108) the record low of 44 was set in 1972. The next few days look to have very typical summer weather with highs in the 80’s and lows in the 60’s 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom Posted July 5, 2022 Report Share Posted July 5, 2022 Good news into the very LR as the Euro Weeklies are showing the MJO heading into the Null Phase...I haven't paid much attn to the previous forecast runs but yesterday's run is good news with respect to dampening down the potential for large scale heat across the central CONUS. The CFS/CFSv2 ain't buying a pronounced Heat signal. I'll take it. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

james1976 Posted July 5, 2022 Report Share Posted July 5, 2022 I've been up in the TC since Friday. Great weather the entire long weekend. We went out for a great fireworks display last night. It was clear, calm and mid 70s. This morning it is very humid. 70° with a 70 dew and 99% humidity. You can see it in the air. I also finally got my weather station set up! It's a Davis Vantage Vue. I'm still learning all of its features. I also may try to mount it somewhere else. My fiancee's property has a lot of trees so there's no real ideal place for it. Pretty cool though! 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are you on the north or south side of Sioux Falls? Could make a pretty big difference as you’ll be right under the bow head, which often has the most intense conditions but also the sharpest cutoff. We ended up under the bow head in the 2012 derecho and it delivered 20 minutes of 80-90mph gusts. A bit further north and that was reduced to 60mph.

Phil Posted July 5, 2022 Report Share Posted July 5, 2022 Looks like a wake low might be developing behind the derecho.

The heavy rain is up where the storms are training along the front. Update: I just checked the latest couple HRRR runs and they are more solid with the line around 11pm, have some decent rain.
