Pattern June 2022

At least you don't have any 100's in the forecast.

True although I tend to think of 100 as a more mental thing. It's the humidity always. We had a heat index over 110 the other day with temps in the 90s and it was about as nasty as I've ever felt. The humidity lowered a couple days ago and you could tell a clear difference

There's just something about this summer I'm dreading more than usual. I'm not sure what it is I mean heck I grew up in Alabama lived in Dallas but something this year just feels different. I think it's just the fact we're already in a late July August pattern on June 17th... Even TV mets here have been talking about 2011 which was the worst summer ever here with 42 days over 100 starting in late June (Dallas had 70...) And they are like hoping it doesn't repeat... That should tell you a lot there. There was a couple nights in early August that year we barely got below 90 here!!

Farmers in Kansas have lost a lot of cattle to heat stress.

Satellite and radar trends suggest the MCS will dive SSE towards Nashville.

That said, it's pretty far removed from the westerlies, so still questionable it will remain organized.
 
Surprised there isn't a watch here yet when we had one yesterday and today's setup is supposed to be better for severe storms. Well, according to the SPC that is

Seeing some towering CU outside. Might see some isolated convection later this afternoon.
 
Another severe thunderstorm warning today and now solid rain for the 3rd straight day. Has been putting it down pretty good for 30 minutes. grass already looks so much better.
 
12z GFS and EURO runs were definitely the hottest yet in the long range, especially the further SW you go.

FWIW, 2022 has tied in 2nd (just shy one day for #1) for the most number of 90°F+ days to-date in Dallas.
 
@smast16 might be the big winner today. A lot of hail and wind reports with the cell training over Kernersville.

I do wonder just how cool we are going to get around here Sunday morning. If we were going to fully decouple the BL the record low of 49 at RDU might actually be jeopardy
Hoping we can sniff some upper 40s around here Sunday morning. It is going to feel so refreshing this weekend after sweating through 10 shirts this week.
