    ORD is down to 1 1/2SM with FU. It would be hard to dig in to, and something LOT would have to do, but I’d imagine that might be one of the lowest FU based visibility obscuration marks ever. .

    Vis has been lowering here at ORD the past few hours, with smoke mixing down to the surface. Currently 3SM with FU.

    Nice MCV with this complex moving through tonight, which likely helped maintain it longer than expected, given very marginal parameters. Peak wind gusts of 50-55MPH as the main line moved through here at home a bit ago. .

    The bumpy middle 1/3rd of May is finally about to tap in, and looks to extend into the early portion of the final 1/3rd of May as well. A bit delayed, but not denied.
  22. Chicago Storm
    you and beavis can go shack up, in alaska.
  23. Chicago Storm
    Yea, it was confirmed to be legit. More of a landspout.
  24. Chicago Storm
    Unless the NWS or some sort of emergency management was notified in real time, no one would have known it was even occurring.
  25. Chicago Storm
    Three landspouts confirmed from Sunday evening in the vicinity of the I-80 corridor. There was a boundary in that area all afternoon, which was reinforced by a deep inland lake breeze.
