The western side will be intersecting an outflow boundary just west of the QC on SE thats very visible on radar. Could provide additional focus. -

From the latest SPC meso discussion, perfect timing, and a case where the local NWS re-instituted the watch perhaps? DISCUSSION...The intensity of convection across WW 433 has decreased over the last 30-60 minutes in some area from western TN into eastern AR. Other areas, mainly western KY/southern IL and portions of southern AR, have increased in intensity. In the short term, WFOs PAH, MEG and LZK have addressed the continued strong wind threat will local aerial extensions as needed.... Further north, across western KY/southern IL, the line has been intensifying and surging eastward. This is likely being driven by the expansive cold pool across AR/MO as well as stronger deep flow in the vicinity of stronger forcing occurring with a weak shortwave impulse migrating across the mid-MS Valley region. This portion of the line may continue to produce damaging wind gusts and PAH has addressed this by expanding WW 433. A line of storms moved across parts of western/central KY early today, but recent observations show conditions have likely recovered somewhat across western portions of WFO LMK. This may require an additional watch later this evening depending on trends as the line approaches this previously disturbed airmass. -

Thank goodness the 21st has passed. DST just flippin' sucks. Still daylight at 9:30 and twilight after 10? DST wasn't so bad down south but when I moved back here it blew my mind. Especially since IN was a holdout. I don't give a crap about the advantages they spout out. If I wanted to live in the land of the midnight sun I'd be there. Stop f%^&ing with my clock! -

00Z HRRR took a rather ominous turn continuing the threat into central IN. Has some support from the 00Z HRW circus as well as the RAP. This pattern over the next 48 hours seems a little strange to me for May. Almost a quasi August ridge riding pattern with a cold front kicking in behind. Lucy and Charlie? lol -

Yep the forecast Sat. was rather gloomy keeping us on the cool side of the systems coming through with lots of rain. As you said models have slowly shifted north and also increasing our temps especially at night. If that pans out think the next 7 days could be good shrooming albeit wet! Thinking about heading up to Missenewa and Salomonie Friday. -

This crap has got to stop. We can't string together more than 36-48 hours of decent dry weather. It was impossible to get the yard raked last fall and now it's impossible to get the yard raked let alone mowed so far this spring. I desperately need a good 4 day stretch of mild dry weather to get anything done. A day and a half of decent weather followed by 2-3 days of rain, wind and cold then if lucky 2 days of dry weather then repeat. I have like a 24 hour window once or twice a week to do anything outside and it's been like this since October (cold in winter excluded of course). I don't think I've seen such miserable timing with these weather systems in my 7 years back in Indiana. Edit: And btw it seems like every weekend a weather system moves through for the last 6 months. Can't even get a decent Sat. and Sun. Started noticing this in Dec. We had some kind of precip probably more than 70% of the time over the weekend for the last 6 months. 7 day forecast below is getting really old..... Tonight Showers, with thunderstorms also possible after 5am. Low around 40. Northwest wind 5 to 15 mph becoming northeast after midnight. Winds could gust as high as 26 mph. Chance of precipitation is 100%. New rainfall amounts between a half and three quarters of an inch possible. Sunday Showers and possibly a thunderstorm. High near 46. East northeast wind 7 to 17 mph, with gusts as high as 30 mph. Chance of precipitation is 90%. New precipitation amounts between a half and three quarters of an inch possible. Sunday Night Showers likely, mainly before midnight. Cloudy, with a low around 34. Northwest wind around 14 mph, with gusts as high as 29 mph. Chance of precipitation is 60%. New precipitation amounts of less than a tenth of an inch possible. Monday Cloudy, then gradually becoming mostly sunny, with a high near 53. West northwest wind around 11 mph. Monday Night Mostly cloudy, with a low around 43. South wind 6 to 9 mph. Tuesday Partly sunny, with a high near 70. Tuesday Night Mostly cloudy, with a low around 55. Wednesday A 20 percent chance of showers. Mostly cloudy, with a high near 70. Wednesday Night A 40 percent chance of showers and thunderstorms after 2am. Mostly cloudy, with a low around 57.
