Some of us are going to put a big dent in the drought over the next 2 weeks. Models are very bullish over the next 10 days producing heavy rains through the middle of the country. Here's a look at the GFS and GEFS over the next 10 days. This is a critical stretch of the LRC as these 2 weeks are historically the most influential to the cycling pattern according to Gary Lezak.

Good Sunday everyone! For what has been a record setting summer, it makes sense to me for Nature to just set some more back-2-back days of Record Heat. Not only did we have a record high of 97F on Friday, but PHX hit the 100F mark yesterday and set a new Record High. Today, marks the latest ever recorded high temp of 100F or more but we may come a couple degrees shy of that today. I'm ok with it! Too many record highs...lets' set some record lows for a change???

0.99" yesterday, 0.46" so far today. Much wetter than I was expecting.

The official H/L yesterday at Grand Rapids was 56/40 there was no rainfall. The sun was out 98% of the possible time. The highest wind gust of 24 MPH was out of the NW. For today the average H/L is 56/39 the record high of 78 was set in 1927 the coldest high of 34 was set in 1997. The record low of 19 was set in 1976 the warmest low of 59 was set in 1984. The most rainfall of 1.32” fell in 1906 the record snowfall of 8.2” fell in 1967. Last year the H/L was 68/50 and 0.08” of rain fell. At the current time it is clear and 29 here in MBY the official reading at GRR is 30 so this will be the coldest low so far this fall. There is a chance of record highs on Tuesday and maybe Wednesday. The current record high for Tuesday is 77 and for Wednesday it is 79. The current forecast is for highs of 76 and 77.

Salem has had about 1” overnight. 0.75” the past three hours.
