could be wrong, but IMO there'll be more of these easterly EMLs than usual this summer, given the incredible drought out west.

Pretty aggressive wording on this SMW over Lake Michigan

Really, really rare to see this highest level contour on the CSU maps this far out

A rare (the first this season?) warm spring day here with very calm winds. usually we pay a price with these 60s/70s, but thankfully not today

just ripped snow here for about 3 minutes, hasn't dropped below 32 yet today, though.

Got this earlier as a cell crawled down from Clare. not a ton of lightning, but really crisp updrafts all around.

barely hit 70 today, but plenty of showers/weak tstorms around. campus wx camera has a nice view: http://weather.eas.cmich.edu/current/webcam/2026-04-16-17-56.jpg

Also, thinking they may go MDT with the 1630z update

Beautiful light show last night here, went and sat out in a field for ~90 minutes, with constant lightning 20-40 miles away, first from the cell that moved through Saginaw, and then new stuff that back built from it, probably off of outflow?

What a time for the IWX radar to go down...

MD and then watch just issued pretty much back to back for IWX area

Surprised that the D2 update at 1730z didn't introduce any sort of ENH in Michigan

went ahead and started a thread

figured it's probably due, almost a lock that someone in the sub's gonna see some action today or tomorrow. primarily hail/tornado risk.
