It underperformed a bit, but it's still decent, easily the best rain since early August. Ended up with 0.75" in my backyard here in Omaha from this system... as you mentioned Hawkeye - this system underperformed just a little bit however it was still a nice, soaking rainfall that we desperately needed. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately, the heat returns Tuesday going forward.

I dont think the system underperformed at all in Southeast Iowa? I have seen dozens of reports from i35 to Burlington of about 1 inch or more. Around Ottumwa I heard from maybe 7 friends with 1.20 or more. Jefferson county had many east of Ottumwa pushing 1.50 plus? The southern Iowa drought has been going strong for several months particularly places like Ottumwa Eldon Fairfield. Its about time something overperformed that wasnt a small strip or stripe, I have or manage over 25 hunting plots on over 20 farms across southern Iowa and is the very first widespread since maybe March!!! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tom Posted September 12, 2022 Author Report Share Posted September 12, 2022 Wow, what an eventful day yesterday....not just in Chitown, but here in the PHX valley we shared in the wild weather! The Bears vs 49'rs game was interesting and the weather certainly played a very big role for the last 10 minutes or so of the game. The field looked like a slip n slide towards the end of the game! Crazy. The city saw some wild flash flooding as a ribbon of 4-6" of rain fell right through the heart of the city. Sewer covers were begin blown off... Last evening, a cluster of severe warned storms formed in the southern parts of the valley and tracked due north into the PHX valley around 7pm local time kicking up dust and rather gusty winds. I zonked out super early but the winds woke me up at times as the storms rolled in. You can see the outflow boundary on the radar loop below... Finally, Sky Harbor got a direct hit last night by a Severe Warned storm and clocked a 80+mph wind gust and record 0.67" of rain. Lot's of wind damage across the valley. More storms are forecast to develop in a similar fashion later today and evening. 3 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom Posted September 12, 2022 Author Report Share Posted September 12, 2022 Summer returns this coming week for most of our Sub as temps look to soar into the 90's over the Plains and then into MW this weekend. The Ups & Downs of Fall will keep things interesting as we approach the official start of Autumn (9/22). The system that is forecast to track into the PAC NW/N Rockies this weekend will likely bring the 1st sig Snows of the season. By the time we enter the Autumnal Equinox, it'll feel like Fall again for our members out west. I've been watching for this system to deliver quite a punch but how much vigor it will deliver is TBD. I fully anticipate a Severe Wx outbreak somewhere across the Upper MW/MW region during the 19th-21st period. This front has the signature of a classic Autumn CF that slowly tracks down across the Sub. Another round of big rains for IA/MN/WI/IL???? 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mlgamer Posted September 12, 2022 Report Share Posted September 12, 2022 I know it might be a bit early but I was cruising the 500mb charts to see if there are any hints of a new LRC forming yet. These two maps are 340 days apart and dividing by 5 gives 68 days (a little higher than the 64/65 day current cycle length). In short, this quick and dirty still overall looks pretty much like the same pattern to me. (I know not everyone follows the LRC and I could be off in my thinking so this is for ENTERTAINMENT PURPOSES ONLY. ) 2 Quote 23-24 seasonal snow total: 17.8" (as of 3/9/24) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't believe I have ever heard of this method in the PNW subforums or elsewhere. Anyone care to shine a light on what that LRC tool entails? Its a unique technology that has been created by a meteorologist Gary Lezak out of Kansas City. He is the guru who founded this LR forecasting technique. You can go to his site an learn more about it. https://weather2020.substack.com/ Oct/Nov are the months when the new cycle begins to evolve and when many LRC followers pay close attn to the developing wx pattern over the Northern Hemisphere. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clinton Posted September 12, 2022 Report Share Posted September 12, 2022 The GFS continues to wanna combine some of the remnants of Kay with a weak disturbance over the Rockies and bring some rain to the northern Plains and the lakes this weekend.

Tom Posted September 13, 2022 Author Report Share Posted September 13, 2022 Out in the desert, I'm enjoying the temps in the low/mid 90's the last couple days and for the next few days. TBH, its funny saying this, but when the local mets here talk about a "Cool" down of 5 degrees I used to laugh at it, but you can definitely feel the difference...albeit minimal. As I spend more time out here, I get acclimated to the weather and I'm getting used to the warmth. TBH, I'm yearning for those nice cool, crisp Autumn mornings. Meantime, back at home, ORD topped out at a chilly 66F which are OCT level temps. I'm sure many are ready for the sun to return as they have been stuck in some gloomy, cloudy days. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom Posted September 13, 2022 Author Report Share Posted September 13, 2022 Over the past several runs, the EPS is starting to hone in on a more sustained "flip" in the N.A. pattern that should usher in a cooler and refreshing airmass. All the models are starting to spike the +PNA which is a clue that a more amplified North American 500mb pattern will develop.

westMJim Posted September 13, 2022 Report Share Posted September 13, 2022 Yesterday was a rather cool day with the official H/L of 66/52 there was a trace of rain fall and 0% of possible sunshine was reported (the sun did come out here for a few minutes) The overnight low both here in MBY and officially at GRR was 55 and that is the current temperature. For today the average H/L is now down to 75/54. The record high for today of 95 was set in 1939 and again in 1952. The record low of 35 was set in 1975. Today should be the last of the cool days for a while and we should see highs back into the upper 70’s to low 80’s for the rest of this week. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
