He goes by a different name here but he’s the chicken little of droughts. He could be sitting in 75” YTD in august and be preaching a looming drought.
Gonna have to wait and see yet again if we saw an intra-hour high of 95*F at DFW (both the 4pm and 5pm observations were 94*F).
RDU’s high temperature of 52 today was 2 degrees off the all-time record low maximum temperature of 50 degrees for May 8th, set back in 1917. If it was May 9th, it would’ve broken the record of 54.

It also is the third coldest high ever , and the coldest high of this century so far for May. All time is 49 in 1992. Absolute bollocks .

Wow. I was hoping to see 40s here but it stayed completely overcast all night, only got down to 51.
Mid May is trending warmer due to the pacific jet speeding up more/GOAK trough becoming more progressive. Same exact thing happened in mid-late April, need to be careful or we could find ourselves in a torch again because the more we speed up the jet, the more we release the airmass from the CUS

Like that 
GFS basically shows the exact same thing now lol, with heat getting released from out west 
Early szn mcs flow maybe some wedge front severe as well
I'll have to do some research to see the most number of 90*F+ days DFW has ever seen in May. I wouldn't be surprised if this month makes a run for that record.
That 12z GFS only shows one sub-90*F+ day here the entire run.
That 12z GFS only shows one sub-90*F+ day here the entire run.
I don't think it's impossible you could sneak into the 40s tomorrow or Wednesday morning
Beautiful 71F
It's bad when temps nearly 15 degrees below normal is "beautiful."
