Timmy Supercell Posted August 1, 2022 Report Share Posted August 1, 2022 Didn't see an August thread so I'm making one. Ended July here in Ashland with a more comfortable 72/65 day, and 0.74" rainfall! Some highway a little outside of town had some standing water but for the most part I don't think anyone was hurt today. Looking out in the nearer term, early August doesn't look too hot for eastern Kentucky. 3 Quote Ashland, KY Weather '23-'24 Winter Snowfall - 5.50" First freeze: 11/1 (32) Minimum: 2 on 1/17 Measurable snows: 4 Max 1 day snow: 3" (1/19) Thunders: 11 1/27, 1/28, 2/10, 2/22, 2/27, 2/28, 3/5, 3/6, 3/14, 3/15 3/26, ------------------------------------------------------- [Klamath Falls, OR 2010 to 2021] https://imgur.com/SuGTijl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hawkeye Posted August 1, 2022 Report Share Posted August 1, 2022 A real nice storm just passed through the Cedar Rapids area. I received 1.04" of rain. Only 1.4 miles to my south over 2" fell. There was constant lightning and soft, rolling thunder throughout the storm. When the rain ended I went outside and saw an amazing lightning display above, at the back of the anvil. At the same time, I could see a few stars shining through the thin clouds above. It was pretty amazing. 3 2 1 Quote season snowfall: 34.8" '22-23: 30.2" '21-22: 27.1" '20-21: 52.5" '19-20: 36.2" '18-19: 50.2" '17-18: 39.5" Average snowfall: ~30" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

westMJim Posted August 1, 2022 Report Share Posted August 1, 2022 At Grand Rapids August has been warmer than July 14 times. The biggest difference was in 1947 when July had a mean of 69.1 and August had a mean of 77.7. The last time August was warmer than July was just last year when August had a mean of 74.3 and July was 72.3. So yes in some years August is warmer than July. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crazy stuff. LA was beautiful and sunny during our few days out there. Drove down I-10 thru the desert and Phoenix yesterday. That was a hot one! I've seen lots of storms in the distance but we've only driven through a couple weaker storms. Tomorrow we head to San Angelo, TX. Can't believe it's Aug 1st already.

Tom Posted August 2, 2022 Report Share Posted August 2, 2022 Once again, the models had no clue in the LR of seeing cooler air around these parts. This week will feature volatile weather with surges of warmth, mind you, it won't be as HOT as the models were suggesting earlier on. I remember how much enthusiasm WGN was pumping on this weeks "so-called" Heat Wave. The producer is a Hot weather fanatic and suggesting mid/upper 90s for days. Nasso much anymore my friend! Prob only hit 90F tomorrow before the CF comes through igniting severe storms. Anyway, the LR pattern looks to feature pretty good shot for some BN temps for the eastern CONUS. @Phil might miss out on some nice late summer weather. @Timmy Supercell might have to prepare for more flooding concerns. 0z EPS...Cool to Rule for Week 2??? Man, the 0z Euro Control is pretty darn cool...it's been showing run-to-tun consistency, esp if the Greenland Blocking shows up and the +PNA pattern that ALL the models are locking onto.

Niko Posted August 2, 2022 Report Share Posted August 2, 2022 Thankfully, the real heatwave will not happen here in S MI, thank goodness. Tomorrow will be a real hot one, where temps climb to near 95F, then the rest of the week shows 80s and possibly low 80s for highs over the weekend w tons of sunshine. Also, hopefully severe weather can occur tomorrow, as needed rain is definitely welcomed. Some models are showing some nasty cells moving through S MI.
