OKwx2k4 Posted May 13, 2017 Report Share Posted May 13, 2017 I love those maps. If they keep looking like that thru June-July, I'll probably re-up my WxBell subscription soon.

We just need next years north Pacific pattern to play ball. Did you get hit by the severe storms last week?? Parts of E OK got hit pretty good.

Tom Posted May 14, 2017 Author Report Share Posted May 14, 2017 Interestingly, Northern Hemisphere snow cover near decadal highs while last year it was the complete opposite...should help keep the arctic cooler this summer if it persists.

Tom Posted May 14, 2017 Author Report Share Posted May 14, 2017 Skilling's team is forecasting upper 80's back home on Tuesday! Pretty impressive warmth on the way as well as severe wx chances on Wednesday for the area. Nice stretch of summer time weather for you guys out that way. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom Posted May 14, 2017 Author Report Share Posted May 14, 2017 I believe the CPC updates their Seasonal Outlook later this week on Thursday. Will post them as they update. Looking forward to seeing their official summer outlook as well as how the Autumn is trending. For reference, here is their recent Summer and Autumn outlooks so we can gauge how they will trend later this week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

westMJim Posted May 14, 2017 Report Share Posted May 14, 2017 This has turned out to be a great Mother’s day weather wise. With brilliant sunshine and temperatures in the upper 60’s to low 70’s Off to our north while still sunny the temperatures are cooler to colder with temps in the 50’s and low 60’s in norther lower to the low 40’s to mid 50’s in upper Michigan. Looking ahead we look to get warm (mid 80’s) and then cold (frost and freezing temps?) I might have to cover the tomato plants the week of the 22nd. we shall see.

Wow, I knew it was bad, but in Marshall the last 3 days were 69, 73, and a toasty 74 yesterday.

That paltry green shading over extreme SWMI would continue the dryness in progress. Need to get lucky and at least reach the blue threshold over a 10 day period. Seems we've fought a mini-drought around this time the past few early summers. In 2012, I had .50" of nice soaking strati-form rain on June 1st, then not a drop for weeks!

About 9:20 there was a nice line coming onshore but it split apart and fizzled before reaching mby. Heard several rumbles of thunder even, it was that close, but alas - nada.

Thought we'd been totally snubbed on rainfall after the 5th, but later remembered that we did score an overnight ~0.4" around the 9th or 10th. That's the main reason the lawns are holding their own up til now. I did notice the x-way median starting to go brown (already in MAY!) just before that storm cell the other night gave a decent drink west of Kzoo. Y'all are prolly thinking I'm a bit goofy for harping on the non-stop wet pattern that brought flooded basements, then within 2 weeks harping on the dry streak. And maybe I am a bit, lol...I'll just keep watering every evening and hope for this weekend's forecast to bring one good soaking of at least 0.5" to relieve me of the chore.. .

jaster220 Posted May 17, 2017 Report Share Posted May 17, 2017 @ Tom Seeing snow at elevation in summer is pretty neat stuff. I remember my first time was July of '99 crossing over some pass in Wyoming. It had been a long hot and dry warm season back home in S. Bend and seemed crazy that there was still deep deep banks and drifts along the highway. Got foggy up there too, like you went up into the clouds. I did not stop and get out though, we were on "summer vacation" not a skiing trip 1 Quote Winter 2023-24 Snow Total = 53.1" (90% Normal Season) Largest Storm: 12" (1/12-13) Oct: 0.1 Nov: 2.9 Dec: 7.5 Jan: 31.7 Feb: 6.0 Mar: 4.3 Apr: 0.1 Avg = 59.2" (Harrison): 2023-24 = 53.1" Avg = 45.0" (KDTW): 2022-23 = 33.5" 2021-22 = 35.6" Avg = 49.7" (KRMY): 2020-21 = 36.2" 2019-20 = 48.0" 2018-19 = 56.1" 2017-18 = 68.3" 2016-17 = 52" 2015-16 = 57.4" 2014-15 = 55.3" 2013-14 = 100.6" (coldest & snowiest in the modern record!) 2012-13 = 47.2" 2011-12 = 43.7" Legit Blizzards (high winds and dbl digit snows): Feb 2011, Dec 2009, Jan 2005, Dec 2000, Jan 1999, Mar 1998, Nov 1989, Jan 1982, Jan 1978, Jan 1977, Apr 1975, Mar 1973, Jan 1967, Feb 1965, Jan 1918 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jaster220 Posted May 17, 2017 Report Share Posted May 17, 2017 KBEH here in St. Joe hit 87º yesterday evening despite the lake. That's cooking, especially considering we had low 40's for a high less than 2 wks ago.
