Minny_Weather Posted May 24, 2018 Report Share Posted May 24, 2018 I am headed to Cedar Rapids and Dubuque, where temps will be slightly cooler but dew points will be in the upper 60s there, as opposed to the lower 60s here. So it'll feel way worse. Quote Formerly *ahem*: LNK_Weather, TOL_Weather, FAR_Weather, MSP_Weather, IMoveALot_Weather. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaster220 Posted May 24, 2018 Report Share Posted May 24, 2018 This weekends weather reminds me of May '14 after such a chilly Spring, sudden summer appeared on MDW and the beaches were packed to the bone. I recall watching WGN TV from AZ and seeing the craziness on North Ave beach that year. Anyway, sign me up for this forecast... 80+ every day in my grid.

jaster220 Posted May 24, 2018 Report Share Posted May 24, 2018 Not sure if we have any golfing peeps here? I get out on the links when I can. I mentioned that my work office is situated right between the Yacht Club and the Jack Nicklaus designed pro-level golf course and we're (another division of the firm) the signature sponsor of the championship tourney for the Sr. PGA which kicked-off with this morning's round. Place is wall-to-wall with crowds and the wx has turned just perfect for the main event. If you appreciate the game at all, just watch this short vid to see an amazing feat here back in 2010 Hope everybody has an awesome MDW 3 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...

After struggling through leaf out and only having about 70% of my normal vegetation in the 1st week of the month plus the burnt trees from late freezes, this place is unrecognizable.

It's going to be a rough summer for those folks to your west, however, once they get through the summer, I've had a hunch since earlier this Spring that this region which has been soo D**n dry since last October, will end up becoming quite wet when the new LRC sets up next year. Nature always balances out and I think next year things will change for those folks. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom Posted May 25, 2018 Author Report Share Posted May 25, 2018 It's a gorgeous morning over here in Chicago with pristine blue skies and a temp of 69F which is forecast to rocket into the low 90's today. The sounds and smells of summer are in full effect. There is something about the smell of a freshly mowed lawn that's so pleasant to me. It brings back memories of a kid when we used to take family road trips across the country and the smell of nature just fills you up with joy. #gratefulsummerishere 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
westMJim Posted May 25, 2018 Report Share Posted May 25, 2018 It looks like we will have a nice and very warm to hot Memorial Day weekend this year. With highs in the upper 80’s to maybe low 90’s on Sunday and Monday. The record high for Sunday May 28th is 92° set in 1911. The record high for Monday is also 92° set in 1978 and 1977 with several years having a high of 91 with the last one being 2012. The current record for Memorial Day is also 92° in 1919 with 91° coming in 1978 and 2006 so this year has a good chance of being one of the warmest Memorial Days in Grand Rapids history.

Hmmm... I know what happens next in those two. Both were also pivotal multidecadal climate shifts. Hearing word that this one may be also. Wanted to add May 2000 to years that are similar to this one as far as drought and location of heat. I believe the heat was confined to the southwest and south Central US until later in the summer and into September. The early drought pattern (Nov-April) was eerily similar. Hurricane analogs from the other day see this and 1978 as well. (I didn't know it until now) That summer was followed my a marked shift in climate also and 2 years removed from a super Niño. After one of the hottest Septembers ever recorded CONUS wide, we saw the coldest October in US history. Stuff to think about going forward. (Had to fix/add info to this.

Hawkeye Posted May 26, 2018 Report Share Posted May 26, 2018 Hot and dry in May sucks. The evening storms have bypassed Cedar Rapids, because 2018. 1 Quote 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" Average snowfall: ~30" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Minny_Weather Posted May 26, 2018 Report Share Posted May 26, 2018 Storms were wild in Dubuque. With the zero severe weather season we've had so far in Lincoln, it was nice to see something. Still in Dubuque and the rain has cooled the temps to the lower 60s. Supposed to get to the mid-90s tomorrow. Greattttt.

Iowawx Posted May 26, 2018 Report Share Posted May 26, 2018 Hot and dry in May sucks. The evening storms have bypassed Cedar Rapids, because 2018.Earlier storms did miss CR, but there is a strong cell near Waterloo that is moving southeast that could produce some heavy rain in CR.

Hawkeye Posted May 26, 2018 Report Share Posted May 26, 2018 Yeah, I was surprised by the storms. I expected anything back to the nw to fall apart before reaching us. Somehow I awoke about 5 minutes before the storm hit. It's pretty weird how my brain always knows there's a storm moving in while I'm sleeping, even if there's no thunder. I had to run out and move my potted plants into the garage and bring the hummer feeders in to protect them from wind. There was probably some wind just south, but there was none here. I picked up 0.66" of rain. Sometimes I wish we got more of our storms during the day. 90% of the time it's in the middle of the night. 1 Quote 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" Average snowfall: ~30" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
