Tom Posted September 19, 2022 Author Report Share Posted September 19, 2022 I didn't think my area back home would get hit but it certainly did as a severe warned cell moved through just before midnight. I have to see if there was any hail that dropped from those strong cells as there was half dollar size hail that fell to the SW of ORD. It feels like dejavu all over again as I can remember a very similar set up that happen back in July and sparked storms in a similar fashion over N MO/IL and into IN. Once again, our local photographer in Chi captured these "twinning" bolts of lightning... 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom Posted September 19, 2022 Author Report Share Posted September 19, 2022 Here we go again...the Monsoon is going to Fire up here in the valley as the pattern is ripe for a golden opportunity to really put an exclamation point to the official 2022 season. I'm really hoping Sky Harbor can get nailed bc it needs to catch up in the precip dept. It's really interesting how the valley can get hit in various parts while others miss out on the storms. This season it has been more widespread which is a great thing to be able to "spread the wealth" but when it comes down to the official tally I'd like to see PHX smash a big hit. 0z Euro suggesting over 1" qpf for the central valley... The cut-off trough to the west of Cali combined with the monster Ridge over TX/OK creates an ideal flow... 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom Posted September 19, 2022 Author Report Share Posted September 19, 2022 0z EPS over the next couple weeks is showing multiple chances for more precip across the central Sub this coming week but what caught my eye is the increase in the potential for a Tropical system near FL/NE GOM/SE towards the end of SEP and opening of OCT. The 0z GEFS is also sniffing out this potential. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

westMJim Posted September 19, 2022 Report Share Posted September 19, 2022 The official H/L at Grand Rapids yesterday was 82/65 for yet another very warm September day. There was officially 0.14” of rain fall and there was 57% of possible sunshine. The overnight low here in my MBY was 66. For today the average H/L is now down to 73/52 so far this month the coldest low has been just 52. The record high for today is 91 is 1908 and the record low of 36 happened in 1929, 1979 and 2020. In 2020 there was frost here in my area. It looks to be warm thru Wednesday and then cool down to below average temperatures thru Sunday. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
westMJim Posted September 19, 2022 Report Share Posted September 19, 2022 In going thru pictures on my phone I came across some pictures in my area of fall color. While it may not be the peak of the color season it none the less gives you a idea of when there was some good color in several years. However I do not have each year covered but there was good color in 2014 on October 15. 2015 on November 3, 2018 October 29, 2019 October 23 and 2020 October 9th. I would point out thar in 2020 there was a frost here on September 19th 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only twice in recorded KC history has it been 100+ later in the year than 9.20. Yesterday, KC tied it's record hi of 96, set in 1925.

CentralNebWeather Posted September 19, 2022 Report Share Posted September 19, 2022 At 1:30 PM, 90 degrees feels like 93 with a 64 dew. Tomorrow, potential record high of 96. Wednesday 61 and Thursday 55 with good chances for rain. That is one potent cold front coming. Thank goodness. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OmahaSnowFan Posted September 19, 2022 Report Share Posted September 19, 2022 Lincoln should hit 100 on back to back days after outperforming today. I “only” reached 90.5 IMBY, but the dew was over 70 most of the day so pretty brutal. Forecast for tomorrow is 97 and then 75 Wednesday! I also only received .29” of rain over the weekend. Went chasing yesterday and was left pretty disappointed. One line cell popped about 630-700 and moved right along the highway so was east to follow. It went tornado warned for a while but was never close to dropping one, and then died a pretty rapid death about sunset. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

westMJim Posted September 20, 2022 Report Share Posted September 20, 2022 This sure has been a warm September so far. The average H/L after the first 19 days this month has been 77.9/58.6. And that said yesterday was no exception with a H/L of 79/62. There was a trace of rain fall reported along with 91% of possible sunshine. The overnight low so far at GRR has been 55 and here in MBY the low and current temperature so far is 54. For today the average H/L has dropped again and is now 72/51 the record high of 90 was set in 1931 and the record low of 33 was set in 1956. Today and tomorrow look to be the last of the warm days for a while with highs in the upper 70’s before a sharp cool down for highs in the 60’s until the start of next week. It will feel cool as it has been so warm for so long. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom Posted September 20, 2022 Author Report Share Posted September 20, 2022 After reading this mornings WGN Blog, it does appear my place got some decent hail (1.75") and appreciable rains (1.89"). Many folks are looking forward towards the seasons "First Taste of Fall"...coinciding with natures official start to Autumn on 9/22. Getting some spotting rain showers over the valley but nothing to impressive ATM. Current temp of 82F feels nice this morning as today should be mostly cloudy today. Tomorrow and Thursday look rather impressive as we can get some training storms to develop. I hope Sky Harbor gets a direct hit that will increase the official Monsoon tally. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CentralNebWeather Posted September 20, 2022 Report Share Posted September 20, 2022 Today is the 3rd game for our 7th Grade and 8th Grade football teams that I coach. All 3 games will have had temps into the mid 90's. By tomorrow and Thursday, rain and warm weather gear will come out. Sure have to hope that this is the end of the 90's for the season.

The cold front should move through mby around 4 to 5pm I can't wait for it to get here. It's hard to believe thunderstorms won't occur with a front like this but only the Euro shows any significant rain for the KC area. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
