As we close in on the summer solstice our hours of daylight have pretty much peaked. Today we will gain 19 seconds of daylight which gives us a day length of 15 hours and 20 minutes. Sunrise has peaked, we are gaining the 19 seconds on the sunset time.
The warmest days of the year follow about a month after the solstice as shown by the graphic below:
The temperature increase after the solstice occurs because the rate of heat input from the sun during the day continues to be greater than the cooling at night for several weeks until temperatures start to descend in late July and early August.
Temps will continue to climb through the rest of the week with 90° forecast by Friday, Thursday and Saturday will come close with highs in the upper 80s with increasing humidity. Our next chance of rain won’t be until Saturday.
Wow! The forecast (and the Covid comments are both “energized” this morning)!
On my way north no smoking at the casino now that’s wonderful as this beautiful day outside no humidity no heat …We will take it .. INDYDOG14!!
We have been blessed with perfect weather lately. I wish it was like this all year long.
Fourth straight sunny day in a row. 87% sunshine for June. Is this Michigan?!
I think every state in the union should fully open up with no social distancing or masks! Let’s go for 1 million deaths! Some call covid 19 a hoax! A hoax? We have a global pandemic that is killing people by the thousands, soon to be millions! Look at the facts and scientist not Fox News or other right wing conspiracy garbage! Incredible!
You know I am not sure if most businesses should have been closed but I do feel that everyone should wear a mask when inside a building. I went to two places this morning. I went Meijer where most but not all were wearing a mask. Then I went to my doctors where everyone HAS to wear a mask. That is the way it should be at all the open stores. NO mask you do not get served. You get into a argument with the store employees you get 1. A ticket (500.00) the first time 2. 1000.00 the 2nd time and the 3rd time you get sent to jail for 90 days or more. The way this country is handling this virus now this is going to go on and on and on and on. For the fun of it stores should say if you don’t want to wear a face mask then drop you pants because we want to see ALL of your holes.

The bozos not wearing a mask are inconsiderate idiots! Ridiculous!

Nice morning, clear skies with a mild temperature of 67 at this time. With it getting a little dryer we will have a better chance of seeing temperatures climb higher each day but with the dryer air and lower DP the lows should fall back down to more conferrable levels overnight at least until the weekend.
