  1. they're not going to cancel it and then re-issue it for tomorrow, dingus. the better question is, why is the criteria so low around there. (the same can be said for other cwa's as well)
  2. Peaked at 92° at ORD and 96° at MDW today. ...2025 90°+ Day Tally... 20 - ORD 20 - DPA 19 - MDW 19 - PWK 18 - ARR 17 - LOT 15 - RFD 11 - UGN
  3. what are you paying for? has to be something with a big up-front cost.
  4. interesting question… would ya’ll trade theclimatechanger straight up for cromartie?
  5. No quality pictures today, unfortunately. The front sagged through here at ORD just as this stuff got going out west and moved in, so it's a miss south up here. I was watching the cam while it hit down at home. It looks like the best wind missed just south, but the lightning was the best of the year easily... Top shelf CG action.
  6. Topped out at 94° at ORD and at MDW today. ...2025 90°+ Day Tally... 19 - ORD 19 - DPA 18 - MDW 18 - ARR 18 - PWK 16 - LOT 15 - RFD 11 - UGN

  8. A line of t’storms/severe t’storms just moved through a short time ago, both at home and here at ORD. Watched it on cam when it hit home, and looked visually liked 50MPH+ peak wind gusts. Here at ORD the ASOS wind sensor went down, so had to use back-up airfield sensors, which had a peak wind gust of 67MPH. But, honestly, it looked nothing close to that here at the office. Here’s a shot as the activity was moving in…
  9. Peaked at 91° at ORD and 92° at MDW today. ...2025 90°+ Day Tally... 17 - ORD 17 - DPA 16 - MDW 16 - ARR 16 - PWK 14 - RFD 14 - LOT 9 - UGN

  11. 2.07" of rain at ORD last evening/night and into early this morning.
  12. i should say, the enhanced is fine, it’s the placement that is horrid. way too far SE/E. there shouldn’t be a slight in the metro, let alone an enhanced nosing in.
  13. trash outlook. not supported by cams or the environment.
  14. finally some decent deep summer action around here. nothing severe, but this is a step in the right direction.
  15. look at the radar just west? don't go all you know who on us.
  16. It appears that a combination of a couple of factors lead to the setup... An MCV was passing nearby (just south) and a weak front was moving through, which aided in the initial development of activity. There was also a lake breeze that was set up just inland, which appears to have had a [positive] effect on t'storm outflow attempting to push westward against a weak 10-20KT southwesterly LLJ that was in place, thus leading to the re-development and training of activity across that corridor.
  17. Quite a flood event on the near west side early last night.
  18. Added a couple more 90°+ days over the holiday weekend. Hit 92° on the 4th and 94° on Saturday at both ORD and MDW. ...2025 90°+ Day Tally... 15 - ORD 15 - DPA 14 - MDW 14 - RFD 14 - PWK 14 - LOT 13 - ARR 9 - UGN
  19. Peaked at 95° at ORD and 92° at MDW today. ...2025 90°+ Day Tally... 13 - ORD 13 - DPA 12 - MDW 12 - RFD 12 - PWK 12 - LOT 11 - ARR 8 - UGN
