After watching BG's video from today and looking at the 12Z GFS.... we know the pattern going forward looks active. Temps as a whole will also remain above avg if not well above avg at times. The only thing lacking is severe wx. Wondering if that changes a bit mid to late next week? BG did mention a...

Love the reports guys! Thanks! Once we get some heat applied tomorrow and Thurs, things will really be taking off! Glad I was able to get my mowing in yesterday late afternoon prior to the rains coming in.

Seeing some blue sky now in Mason with a bit of sun as well. N winds behind the front will continue to usher in drier air so a nice afternoon is ahead. 67 as of the 11am reading at CVG. Low to mid 70s should work for most locations.

It's been raining decently here in Mason too for the last hour.

CVG tacked on a bit more so now we are up to 0.70" as of 8am. Per radar, the last batch of showers are pushing thru now. Clear skies and drier air has already pushed its way into the NW half of Indiana so by late morning, we could see some sun breaks in our NW and around lunchtime for the Cincy...

Updated 7am total at CVG is 0.65"

I will kind of piggyback off of Tim's last post in the April thread. As mentioned, we certainly look to remain on the active side for the first half of the month at the very least. I see the GFS from time to time showing a cut off low in the extended range as well. Very common to see a system like t...

Awesome!!! Glad to see everyone cashing in for a change. Good deal! The May thread has been started for us to discuss the new month and as you mentioned Tim, the 1st half of the month certainly looks active and I am perfectly okay with that.

Good Morning and Les like you mentioned a nice drink of water overnight. Rather widespread as well and perfect to happen at night. Give me 2 of these systems a week for the next 8 weeks and that would be perfect. Good morning Tim! I wish Mother Nature would work that way too! :lol: 0.64" as of...

I agree! The rainfall totals are absolutely perfect as well as the intensity of the rain with a few mod to hvy pockets at times. I'd love to see 70s and 80s continue all summer with rain every 3-4 days. Of course that will never happen but one can dream!

Time to get the May thread going. Can you believe that the 5th month of the year is almost here? We will start off on the toasty side in the 80s for Wed and Thurs, then turn more active again by Friday. Daily scattered storm chances continue this weekend on into next week as well. Discuss!

Good morning all! CVG is checking in with 0.41" as of 4am. Same here for me and at the Boone Co Mesonet. We got a nice drink of water here! Glad I was able to get the mowing in yesterday. The back edge is moving thru the area now. Look for decreasing clouds this afternoon from NW to SE. Then, t...

Cards / Tigers game was PPD last night. A DH today with Game One at 3:40pm. Jack Flaherty will start. Game Two's start time as well as Tiger pitcher TBD.

76 / 60 as of 1pm at CVG so nice to see the dew point come up a little. The lower levels are trying to moisten up a bit now which is good. Most of the rain is still located over the Wabash River Valley well to our West and SW. A few isolated light showers (probably sprinkles) are currently located o...

Agreed Tim... 1-2" over the next week would be ideal for my hood especially with the crops in for the season. Hopefully, we will see the bulk of the rain at least with this first system at night. I just think our lawns and gardens benefit more due to less in the way of evaporation that we can s...

Wow! The eaglets look like toddlers now! They sure have grown in the last month since they hatched. They are ruffling their feathers and flapping their wings a bit. Mom just left to go grab some lunch.

Good Morning and back from the tundra. Wild up there and on Saturday temp got to 64 but a strong southeast coming from Lake Michigan and the feel like temp was in the mid 40's. Got some work done but the winds were a problem the whole time and even on the drive back until we got to Indy or so. Have...

BG's videos this week will of course be focusing on the KY Derby and associated events surrounding it. I always find the videos to be very informative. I still find it a crying shame that we have no local TV Mets who are willing to put in the extra work that BG does. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=...

I don't see much, if any, in the way of severe wx either this week. Don't be surprised to hear some thunder or see some lightening from time to time over the next week, but everything I am seeing attm points to any storms remaining sub severe. Rainfall amounts with our first system (late today into...

Awesome! The best of luck to you this year for a bountiful harvest!

Good morning all! Hopefully our next weather system will pan out rainfall wise as we could use it! At the same time, I hope it holds off until I get the grass cut. :lol: Our highest chances continue to look like it will come tonight into tomorrow. We get a break on Wed and Thurs with the low and mid...

Tigers won 4-1 today and win the series against KC! We are now only a 1/2 game back of the 2nd place Royals and 3 GB of the 1st place Indians. Next up, the St. Louis Cardinals come to Motown tomorrow night at 6:40pm for some interleague play. Kenta Maeda will kick things off.

I hit 82 so far today, CVG has 80 as of the 3pm reading. As I posted in our Outdoor subforum, all of the crops and flowers are in! I can't remember the last time that I did all of this in April. It is typically Mother's Day weekend most years. It's kind of nice to get a 2 week jump versus most years.
