Hottest day contest and weird weather
Good evening,
The 18z data, this afternoon's new data, that came out shows more of an upper low forming near us by Thursday and then drifting southeast and weakening. Thunderstorms would be more wide spread under this scenario and my confidence is still a bit low. We are upping our chance of thundertorms to 40% and may go higher at 10 PM.
Now, to our hottest day contest. The hottest day so far this summer has been 2:37 PM on July 19th when we hit 104 degrees. We may make a run at it early next week.
Here are some of the entries:
Dwight: July 27, 3:39 PM
Gary Springer: July 27, 4:44 PM
Jamie Cox: July 29, 3:11 PM
Jeannie Swartz: July 29, 3:45 PM
Debbie: July 29, 4:12 PM
Chris Kelly: July 29, 4:22 PM
Stephanie Rau: July 29, 4:32 PM
Matt Purtill: July 30, 4:24 PM
Scott: July 30, 4:55 PM
Jennifer Dunlay: July 31, 4:38 PM
Good luck!
Gary

Gary...nice piece, and I appreciate your research. I differ in opinions regarding several of your points. Give me a few days to compile them. I think be both can agree in advance, there is not a solid answer, but only facts that as we both know can be intepreted to support either viewpoint. I say that due to the still limited info we have collected as it relates to the general cycles the earth goes though in a macro sense. Please advise the bloggers how much you want to discuss this ongoing, as you know this could be discussed for quite awhile yet to come.

Gary, appreciate your special on Global Warming, I know Dog in Blue Springs will appreicate it even more. I personally am not convinced on "global warming" to the point that man is causing this all by vehicles. I have read articles that mother nature has done more "damage" to the Ozone than a humans can. I think it's important to realize that there is so much about day to day weather can we can't explain now, that it seems over presumptious of us to think we can explain a "global pattern". The again, kudos for your presentation because it is a hotbed of controversy and It'll be fun to read all the post you get over this.
