Nice MCS/QLCS structure moving through the metro area. 0.25" hail very briefly here at ORD. Peak wind gust unknown, as the sensor went down, but it was 40MPH+. Back home, I caught 0.50" hail on the yard cam.
-
Agree on both accounts. It seems that the only likely tornado just happened to be one that was unwarned and that no one saw (Delavan).
-
Gustnado yet again.
-
TDS near Delavan...unwarned.
-
Unfortunately. Even when Spotter Network was a way of reporting to the NWS (It's not anymore, no integration), it was a shit-show. Remember back to a year to two ago, when a massive wedge was reported to be ongoing in Arkansas via SN. Radar was not supportive, but LZK still put out a warning and confirmed it.
-
Yea, spreads closer to 20F now. Also, a lot of cold outflow reports, which radar backs up. (Not overly surprising given the background setup)
-
Because not-so great chasers reported it, thus they confirmed it. Then on the other end, more reputable chasers are on socials right now saying, wut?
-
Gustnado based on video. Some chasers need to realize that not every twisting dust/dirt whirl is a tornado.
-
that picture is sick af.
-
Seems as if that confirmed one may not have been a reality. Numerous chasers in the area reported nothing.
-
Bad job across the board, really. This time yesterday, pretty much all guidance had the warm front north of here. Classic I-80 early spring warm front scenario.
-
It's just that convection has continuously curled into the cold sector. Very dynamic storm system overall.
-
Solid yellow/orange sky as this rain/t'storm activity moves in here at home. I dig the dust.
-
Another round of dust this morning/afternoon...
-
hot-take: the wintry side on wednesday night/thursday morning will be more interesting around here than the severe side on wednesday afternoon.
-
Figured it's time for this too...
-
That particular one is a Silver Maple. So, one of the usual early bloom-ers. However, there are some other species at nearly the same level as well.
-
ORD finished with a final event snowfall total of 1.1” yesterday. The seasonal snowfall total is now 15.9".
-
Final event snowfall total here at home of 2.2”. Not the biggest event of the season, but top 5.

Rip city.

March 14-15 Severe Weather Outbreak
Chicago Storm replied to HillsdaleMIWeather's topic in Lakes/Ohio Valley
I was reading back on the thread and saw this... What's seen here is actually an area of lower CC between areas of precipitation, not an actual tornadic CC sig. -
Anyone's guess on what happens with the snow this morning and afternoon. Guidance is severely struggling with dynamic aspect of things.
