Bryan1117 Posted July 21, 2019 Report Share Posted July 21, 2019 Nice steady rain with some embedded thunder this morning in SW Omaha. Of course, here in Omaha we once again missed out on the really heavy rain and stronger thunderstorms to the south and southwest overnight and this morning. I am not going to complain about getting some much needed moisture. Up to .60 so far today and still some more rain to come, current temp is a comfortable 69 degrees... it’s nice giving the AC a break for once. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CentralNebWeather Posted July 21, 2019 Report Share Posted July 21, 2019 NE and KC region getting some beneficial rains and it looks like @CentralNeb is under another Flood Advisory along with both the LNK/KC area. It's nice to see those who have been missing out on the recent rains get a chance to catch up on what has been a long dry spell.You’re correct Tom, some flood advisories in the region with heavy rain overnight and continuing rain this morning. We joked that we hadn’t had a rain in over 10 days since our previous flooding rain and we get more. The rain in my area town hasn’t been flooding type rains, just moderate to at times heavy rain. If you can harvest a crop this year you should make some money. Unfortunately, many farmers have lost a lot of acres with floods or hail. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mines full of food and besides, they could at least say "in a bag" as peeps could just take it literally. As is, would stay cooled for about 5 seconds anyways, unless they meant to put them in wet straight from the washing machine, lolSeriously, did the weather service summer intern write that? Lol.

This will not cool you off all night, but at least it will make you fall asleep more comfortably. You just gotta remember to put your sheets into a plastic sealed bag and pop them in the freezer for a few minutes. Also, make sure the bag is sealed tightly, so you don't let any moisture get into sheets. I did it once in Greece in my vacation home (Andros Island, NE of Athens), where my ac broke outta nowhere. There, the heat is dry, no humidity, but, still it can be quite warm at night sometimes. Usually, the mountain across from my house brings down a cool wind, but that is not always the case. 2 Quote Snowfall for Winter 2023 -24 for Metro Detroit Area Oct 2023: 0.2" AN Nov 2023: 2.2" AN Dec 2023: 0.5" BN Insane!

james1976 Posted July 22, 2019 Report Share Posted July 22, 2019 My band played Rock Fest outside of Cadott WI yesterday. On our way up we drove right into that line of storms. We were just east of Rochester MN when we drove into it. We had to pull off. Crazy wind and torrential rain. From there on up we saw some trees down and a few road signs down. Definitely got hit hard up there. Cleared off by mid afternoon and the weather was beautiful after that! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stormy Posted July 22, 2019 Report Share Posted July 22, 2019 Had a high of just 81° today, or yesterday now. lol Felt great! I saw in my records that 3 years ago today the max dew was 84° and the H.I. 126°!! Highest I have ever seen it on my station. And 2 years ago it was up to 83° dew before an awesome supercell moved over and just north of my place. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom Posted July 22, 2019 Author Report Share Posted July 22, 2019 You can really tell who got hit and who missed out on the action this past weekend.

MIKEKC Posted July 22, 2019 Report Share Posted July 22, 2019 Finally received some good rains in KC, I got hit, however, some parts of the area still missed out. Most of the June days were dry here, July has been the same. We did have big amounts on a few June days and a few July days, but, those rains came hard and fast. We have had to water quite often down here. Not a wet pattern so far this summer in my opinion. Where do we go from here? Looks like a beautiful, but dry week ahead. Much cooler temps....GFS suggesting heat comes back for the KC area starting this coming weekend. Will it be a hot August?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You really have to consider it esp with a La Niña base state and the ENSO conditions cooling off this summer. I’m guessing near normal around the GL’s/MW but warmer risks farther west/south. Not sure it gets as cool the CFSv2 is suggesting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

westMJim Posted July 23, 2019 Report Share Posted July 23, 2019 After the cool spring we had July has surprised me on how warm it has been. For what it is worth the string of 80 or better at Grand Rapids and Lansing has ended at 27 days. As far as I can tell this is one of the longest string of 80 or better days for Grand Rapids. The longest I can find was 52 in 1921. 47 in 1988 and 34 in 1947. as of this morning Grand Rapids July’s mean is 76.1° and that is good for a departure of +4.1° If this carried out to the end of the month that would be good for 11th all-time warmest July at GR. In the last 10 years GR has had 2012 (79.2°) in 2nd place 2011 (77.0°) in 6th place and 2010 (75.5°) in 13th place. We will know in 9 days how July 2019 ends up. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
