  1. Yea, I’m not sure why they didn’t have a marginal that far north originally on the day 3, and really have no idea why they haven’t brought it north on the day 2. Depending on how things continue to look, might even need a slight risk across E IA/NW-W IL. Best activity will end up west of here, but activity might still have an isolated severe potential when it gets into this area.
  2. Impressive mixing occurring across portions of MN/IA/WI/IL, even more-so than modeled. 90’s have even made it into SW WI. .
  3. The fun begins next weekend. Last Friday, this past Tue/Wed and this upcoming Mon were just the pre-game. The first week of May had been the original target, but per usual it was delayed a week.
  4. Just snuck into a severe t’storm warning here with these virga shows/t’storms. Gusted to 40-50mph. .
  5. Solid lake breeze/back door front... IMG_5410.mov
  6. Looks like a shot at isolated to perhaps scattered t’storms in the area overnight/early tomorrow morning, as the disturbance currently in the S Plains moves through. If any activity does occur, (severe or not) should have hail potential given the modeled instability and lapse rates. .
  7. Per Bill Snyder at WGN, it is now the driest spring on record to date for Chicago since 1915. .
  8. Overall warm yes, but definitely not dry. .
  9. The drought out west, which is currently more significant than it was at the same time in late April 2012, is really the only thing comparable at this point. So that’s not much to go off of. .
  10. Well then... SPS for 1/2” hail and 30MPH+ winds. .
