Phil Posted July 11, 2020 Author Report Share Posted July 11, 2020 What is up with these bigger lady bugs this year? I have notice them alot literly on the cars.Interesting, haven’t seen any here. I’ve noticed the insects are generally running 1-2 weeks late this year, though. Cicadas started singing just before the 4th, and the Katydids started last night. Lightning bugs at peak now. Usually lightning bugs peak around the solstice, cicadas start singing in late June, and Katydids follow two weeks later, around the 4th.

I'd expect it to be somewhere closer to 130 with those high dew points.Thankfully it’s not *that* humid out here. This ain’t Dubai. Heat index is 112.5°F at the moment.

Phil Posted July 20, 2020 Author Report Share Posted July 20, 2020 Convection saves the day after initially making it worse. A sun shower briefly sent us to 89.4/81, then a heftier thunderstorm blew up on the differential heating boundary and produced a modest downburst with close lightning and winds to 40mph. Now a much more comfortable 83/75. Hopefully there’ll be more but might’ve exhausted the surface CAPE.

Phil Posted July 21, 2020 Author Report Share Posted July 21, 2020 Must’ve been a large microburst to the NE of here. Several decent pulses of E/NE winds following a barrage of positive strikes.
