  1. Looks like things are trying to get going along the IA/IL border.
  2. Really am curious to see how this afternoon unfolds. Lot's latest update is not un-spicy either.
  3. Distant rumbles of thunder here. Heavier returns are blossoming rapidly a county or so upstream so it could end up being a decent soaking here for a while.
  4. Flooding is pretty ass in the inner west suburbs. Saw a couple cars flooded out under bridges down Roosevelt Road.
  5. Finally, after what feels like a week of being missed by all the rain by irritatingly small margins, it's my turn to get soaked. Hopefully this shit keeps right on training, it's coming down good finally.
  6. Yeah, I've been checking Lake Michigan temperatures daily. It's the new snow storm tracking, if not a little anemic . I'm hoping if we get legit heat wave or two within the next month then we could make a run for at least 70°F.
  7. Bring it on we can't waste any more time getting LM to swimming temperatures
  8. Biggest snow event of the year
  9. Second day of getting missed by the popcorn by mere miles
  10. Anyone know what kind of clouds these are
  11. At least you can see some clouds above the haze today
  12. Oh yeah I'm not complaining, it's just amusing to me. I'm all for OT discussions other than maybe in historical threads. That said, best climo for real. Wouldn't mind a real heat wave sooner than later to start warming the lake up for dunes season.
  13. This has got to be one of the funnier warning areas I've seen so far. Unfortunately I am about to drive directly through it from east to west.
  14. This weather is so nice it's not even on the shelf in the first place
  15. Wow, small world dude. Kind of cool to think about though. So far I've replaced my windshield and my mirror. The mirror I managed to do myself relatively easily. That leaves the the quarter glass which I've ordered online and will need someone to install and then eventually a new fender. For now I just took a crowbar and pried the fender back out far enough so that it lets the driver's door travel freely again. Considering the fender was already rusted to shit and I was looking at replacing it this summer anyway, I hardly count that as a loss. Really, I'm just glad that I was able to drive the car home because the cost of a tow (my insurance plan does cover most towing costs but idk about a 200+ mile job, I ought to check up on that) and a lift for my friends and I would easily have cost more than all of the repairs I've had to do. Between that and the fact that I didn't die + now have a one in a million story to tell isn't a horrible deal I suppose. Obviously I would never ever want this to happen again but the fact that it did and I got off easy in the grand scheme of things is definitely something I am thankful for. Cheers though. Hopefully our paths cross again in the future.
