Good luck this year Texas, Oklahoma, & Kansas. Hope the drought isn't to severe and I hope your pools are working.
Current temps. Chilly at Universal Studies in Orlando Florida (68F) but hot on the Vegas strip.(94F). The 102F is Needles Airport
Just got back from playing golf. It was toasty out there for sure and that sun was very strong and bright. No clouds or wind...just pure sunshine. Everything is so green right now too. My phone says it's 91 here right now but my thermometer in my yard shows 122. Clearly that's not what it actually feels like but more of a depiction of how strong the sun is blazing on it. Headed for a high of 97 here tomorrow with nothing but sunshine.
My question to you and everybody else is....do you think we will be getting a ridge here in Texas for this Summer?
I believe the threads are based on months not temps. This way we don't have back and forth. Technically we can have folks post in the winter thread if that's the case. Maybe a Mod can confirm or it's implied by the thread title. Would be nice to see your posts in here to know Spring was hot there or vise versa.
-----------------------
Latest GFS Data for here. Looks like mostly seasonable weather coming up. 60s/40sF
Looks like a warm period after the 8th. The lows look well above normal in red box, Highs look well above on Friday-Saturday. Pressure drops sub 1000mb so maybe storm nearby. Some rain chances as well. Looks Cloudy and Rainy from 9th to 16th.
This is the only thing I looked at today. No maps. Basing things off this raw data.
I am not talking about a back and forth, that is indicative of spring. I am talking about a permanent pattern of heat, high humidity,and daily thunderstorm development. The NWS says the arrival of summer is marked by 3 things. First by SST reaching 80f(26.7c) and staying at that temperature or higher until fall. 2nd that the average daily dew point stays at or above 70f(21.1c). lastly and most importantly is the presence of near daily thunderstorm development. So once all of these requirements are met i'll be moving over to the summer thread. Given our history I should only have to wait another 2 or 3 weeks.
Basically has no clue what the weather will be like in much of the Central Midwest.... At least it's not forecast cool conditions as it was a week ago...
given that forecast I should have an early start to the rainy season with it starting the week of may 12.
Only by a week or so. South Fl is often earlier than central.
yea the average start of rainy season is May 20 in Miami so only about a week early but glad it is starting sooner rather than later. Hope the trend of rainier than normal years continues. Since 2001 we have averaged 64.81in slightly higher than the 1981-2010 average of 61.9in.
Water temps increased to upper 40s off Long Island and even low 50s near CT coast. Mid 50s for northern Mid Atlantic. Looks near normal now. Well, that was fast. LOL. I bet its not that deep though.
