May 2016 Observations and Discussion


Hawkeye

Recommended Posts

Yesterday we left AZ and drove all the way just outside of OKC to spend the night. It's dang chilly here! Only 52F, with a heavy overcast. Thankfully, the rest of the drive back home looks dry. OKC, I'm not that far from you buddy!

 

Watching the local news here, I saw that Marquette, MI had 2" of Lake Effect Snow! Wow, pretty amazing to see in mid May.

 

Got another 14 hours or so of driving left to go. Atleast it won't be as boring of a drive as NM and the Pan Handle. Driving through OK/MO/IL ain't that bad. See you in Chicago!

 

Part of southern MI saw accumulating snow as did northern Ohio. http://www.mlive.com/weather/index.ssf/2016/05/some_michigan_cities_waking_to.html

 

Temps crashed through the floor this morning here, ended up at 28° for a low. Up into the upper 40s now with clouds on the increase.

I didn't check this yesterday but I hope you had safe travels man! NM and TX are incredibly boring to drive though.

Made it back home safe and sound! It took another 12.5 hour leg, including a quick stop at Culver's in STL to get my burger fix (it's a Midwesterner thing).

 

OK was a nice drive down the Turn Pike. Once I started seeing the vegetation and how green everything was, it set a good mood, since I was in the desert for 3 months. Although, I'm not used to the chilly weather. Can't wait for the 70's and 80's!

Yeah, northeast Oklahoma is quite beautiful in the summer and fall. The area including Tulsa is called Green Country around here with good reason. It's unusually cool for May right now. Looks to stay cool, cloudy and rainy down here all week.

How far from Tulsa, OK are you? Ya, that area is real nice and has that country "feel" driving down the hwy and seeing all the cattle and horses on farm land. Love seeing that type of scenery on road trips. Thankfully, the weather was perfect, not to hot or cold. Intermittent sun and temps in mid/upper 60's.

NOBODY should be used to snow flying in mid-May!  I only caught the legit SHSN in Marshall Sunday morning about 11am, but there were lots of flakes flying north and east of mby throughout SMI over the weekend. Those flakes yesterday morning are likely the latest I've actually seen. Welcome back Tom! I'll be really glad if you brought summer temps to stay!  LOL @ the Culver's stop - I used to hit the one in Effingham on my way to Ft. Worth when I was working down there six years ago this month. At that time, they were just coming into SMI and still a novelty. Now they're all over the place.

I'm eye balling this weekend and early next week!  My nephews are going to spend a few days with me this week into the weekend and may consider going to the beach with them one day if its warm enough.  Tree's are not full bloom here just yet, but I'm sure by MDW things will really start blossoming and growing more after this cold spell.

I'm around 90 to 100 miles east and just slightly south. Right on the OK/AR state line. I love it here. I freak out when I go west of Oklahoma City to visit family out there. No trees and endless wind just isn't for me. I like the rolling hills of the Ozarks and I'm about 20 miles from the Ozarks National Forest. Lakes and beautiful creeks are pretty much all really close by. I'm not much of a city dweller.

Awesome..I agree, the rolling hills are fantastic, especially when you get into the Ozarks region.  Now I know why you are a snow enthusiast so far down south.  I can imagine the scenery looks picturess!

 

Meanwhile saw this regarding ORD's low temp Sunday morning...

 

 

 

35 deg low this morning in Chicago ties 1895 for coldest May 15th temp on record. Slow temp moderation on the way, much warmer next weekend.

 

This pic speaks for itself...

@ Tom's post above

 

Got that beat! I work in Lansing, and while we didn't get the record cold lows, we got the unusual snow!

Models are suggesting our low temp may not fall much below 70 early to mid next week.  That will feel good walking outside in the morning.  I've had enough of the chill.

 

Tom, I also like the Culver's butterburgers, but I usually go with the pork tenderloin... mmmmm.

 

I've always thought northeast Oklahoma wouldn't be a bad place to live.

That's too warm for my liking, but better than freezing in the morning.

 

In the 60s today which feels pretty nice.

 

Edit: Just realized you were saying lowest high temperature! :lol:

It was a beautiful day around noon, with sun, light wind, and mid to upper 60s.  As the afternoon progressed, the clouds moved in and thickened, the wind picked up, and the temp fell to the low 60s.  It feels much cooler now.

Yeah. It's funny how everyone wants to talk about how we are 10 days ahead on Sea ice melt in the Arctic but they forget to mention that we're 2 or 3 weeks behind schedule on warming up in numerous places. It's crazy.

Yesterday was a massive turn-around from the weekend. Mostly sunny in Lansing until late in the day and mid-60's was like a sling-shot back to spring from the abyss that was Sat and Sunday. Even though the overcast set in for mby, the temps stayed up and hung around 60 after dark. Actually felt "hot" by comparison. Even cracked opened a window for sleeping. Looking like we'll finish the work week in style with wall to wall sunshine Wed-Fri per my 5-day. :)

HP in full control for the remainder of this week.  The only problem about that over here is, you get those dang lake breezes which can really cool temps if you are 15-20 miles from the lake.  I feel for Geo's!  The Lake is still pretty darn chilly.

Memorial Day Weekend still looking real nice in this region and the week leading up to it.  Should finally start feeling like summer around here.  I finally cut my grass for the first time yesterday!  Lol...my neighbor helped out when I was in AZ.

 

Can't wait for those warmer days/nights when you can actually enjoy being outside and leave the window cracked open at night.

 

Edit: Still having to use the furnace the past couple nights!  Wasn't expecting this coming back home.

(fixed above)

 

I remember last spring working along the lake in St. Joseph and how I'd leave work and chilly low 60 temps and by the time I got to K'zoo it was in the mid-80's some days!

 

Yep, ran the furnace all weekend at my place too. Can't ever remember needing to do that in May. Prolly did up north, but not downstate.

Wow, that picture is really crazy.

Only near 40° up there today.

 

Just barely touching 50° here with cloudy skies. Pretty sure this month end up below normal as well. Just heard on the local weather, that a lake breeze is expected every day this week. :angry:

I'm most looking forward to being able to walk outside into 60-degree air first thing in the morning, rather than 45.

Yes!  I agree, it's been a long time since we were able to do that around here.  Although, I have been doing that in AZ for the last 3 months.  However, there's a difference in the air out here in the Midwest.

40-ish, fog, and frosty patches is how we roll in SCMI. Like a broken record. I will lose the light jacket if I can only crack 50 when I step out at 6am. Almost June and I can count on less than one hand the number of times it's happened in 2016  :rolleyes:  

 

Loving next week's string of 75-80 deg highs - bring it!

I've posted elsewhere that the trend (so far) this spring has been odd especially for the windy season. Mostly calm conditions have prevailed when we get the sun to come out around SCMI. Today's no exception and I'm liking it. Prolly sucks if you're into kites, but otherwise :)

CPC update their monthly outlook for June. Pretty odd looking temp outlook...

That's a win for me if it works out. :-) I don't want an incredibly hot summer here. Looks like that ridge over Alaska still isn't going away anytime soon either.

Most of my plants are going to love the sudden summer weather.  However, daily 80s really isn't what I wanted for my beets just as they are growing their edible root.  They have much more flavor if the temp is in the 60s to mid 70s.

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"

Bring on the early summer torch...

Normal high for today is 73*F, so by next weekend add a degree or 2. Which means if that map verifies, looking like at least upper 70's. The Lake Michigan shoreline is already enjoying a much earlier boating season thanks to the very low ice winter we're coming off. Lot's of boats out this past weekend with temps still a bit below the "warm wx" threshold. You can see this on the lake water temp maps in this thread, the blues are behind us, just one week after flakes flying. Incredible how much of a contrast can occur in a short time span around here. And it seems when a pattern wants to be dominant, be it a winter pattern or a nice summer pattern, it will happen in spite of obstacles. 77*F and full sunshine today for KRMY. I can't smile any wider, seriously :D
