CentralNebWeather Posted August 18, 2022 Report Share Posted August 18, 2022 Really getting dry. .06" in the last 3 weeks. Dryland crops will be interesting to see what they can produce, fearful that yields will probably be way down. The vast majority of the area is irrigated and those crops look amazing. Farmers would have loved some rain to turn off irrigation systems. My brother in law says that he should be done irrigating Aug. 31. He says if we could just get a 1" rain, that might be enough to be finished for the season. Not looking too promising. I have probably used my underground sprinklers more this year than any year since 2012. Not looking forward to the next bill. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OmahaSnowFan Posted August 19, 2022 Report Share Posted August 19, 2022 On 8/16/2022 at 8:13 AM, Bryan1117 said: We did get some showers and storms that ended up back building into the metro last night. It looks like I will finish up with 0.75” of rain from this system, so really not too bad at all. It wasn’t the 1 - 2” that was initially predicted by the models, but thankful that we at least got a halfway decent soaking over a 24-hour period. Maybe this fall/ winter things will line up perfectly for us with a decent system in the Omaha metro. Yeah it was weird how it back built after the main show had stayed south and was moving southeast the entire night. Ended up getting clipped with basically the very northwest edge of the new area of rain, but thanks to efficient rainfall rates got a pretty decent amount. I received .94” IMBY! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tom Posted August 19, 2022 Report Share Posted August 19, 2022 As the saying goes, its "Show Time"...I got a bit of a taste of the Monsoon here in the valley yesterday. While I was at the pool last evening looking out to my east as the storms were heading my way, the outflows blew so fast through the complex that the chairs blew into the pool. Pretty wild. I captured some vids on the development of the line that came through. The severe stuff was just to my NW and I only got a few tenths of an inch. The beauty of the clouds that bubble up each and every single day up in the mountains since I've been here is why I love being here during the Monsoon season. The Tropics of the Valley of the Sun...

westMJim Posted August 19, 2022 Report Share Posted August 19, 2022 Continuation of very the pleasant late summer weather. Yesterdays official H/L at Grand Rapids was 84/59. There was no rain fall and the sun was out 85% of the time. The overnight low here in MBY was 59 at the current time with clear skies it is 61 here. For today the record high of 98 was set in 1955 and the record low of 43 was in 1977. Today looks to continue the pleasant weather pattern but there are increasing chances of some rain (maybe heavy?) over the weekend. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Niko Posted August 20, 2022 Report Share Posted August 20, 2022 Hopefully today my area scores w/ some severe weather this weekend. Muggy air returns as well, along w higher temps. Highs are expected to be in the mid to upper 80s. I think its safe to say that the 90s are finish, but maybe not. We still have September and heck, even maybe in October for a day or 2. It has happened in the past. Next week looks super pleasant w/ low humidity and tons of sun, but heats right back up again by the following weekend (upper 80s to possibly near 90). Also, S MI running BN rainfall for the year.

OttumwaSnomow Posted August 20, 2022 Report Share Posted August 20, 2022 We had an amazing 1st trip to the Ely Minn area. Forgot my rain gage, but it rained some 7 straight days! Thanks to the huge ULL. Heading back to drought stricken southeast Iowa. While cooler and one day of light rain of about half inch, the miserable year of near misses continues. Those kind of years hurt the most. Upon arriving I will look over situation and models, but strongly expect to began to lay men off. Which pains me greatly as all have families and homes. But its along way to the 1st snow, Maybe mid Jan? Despite having a large business of 200 accounts and one of 90 acres we cannot even keep 3 men busy. Make 3 of past 11 years a total loss and several other bad ones. I seriously despise se Iowa weather! Below is yesterday's rain and the past 90 days. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
