  1. I get a severe warned shower with tops below 30k and no lightning. Weird wake low winds or something. Skip. Just give me a real thunderstorm once this year.
  2. zzz…. No good lightning once again.
  3. The cell headed for Muskegon is looking beefier. Wonder if it will acquire rotation if it gets more surface based eventually.
  4. It will fill in once it gets east of me. Watch.
  5. I just hope there is a round 2 on the back side.
  6. I’m catching a whiff of burnt plastic smoke this evening. Ugh.
  7. If there is a late-morning MCS, it could already be severe, but it will be over once it passes. Then the only supercell/tornado threat will be later in the evening where the southern edge of the outflow ends up. If there is no late morning MCS, afternoon cells could form right on the lake breeze. That scenario would be more interesting.
  8. I would take several years of no t-storms IMBY just to see that one event though. I've never even seen a tornado in person (if you don't count waterspouts). I have seen some decent supercells with large hail while chasing in MI, but never saw more than scuddy wall clouds.
  9. The latest models look farther north. Still so hard to predict where something will develop upstream.
  10. Its just 2 chances that will probably be mostly south of me, then back to the forever trough.
  11. If it starts looking anything like 6-13 last year I might drive south to watch. It looks really juicy, which can lead to a good light show.
  12. Still waiting for one electrically active storm this summer up here. SE side has done better.
  13. Spoke too soon. Feeling yet another miss south.
  14. Finally a flat-topped ridge pattern with stalled warm front potential north of I-80.
  15. Yea. It’s hard to know the exact cause. I notice in Michigan just 300 feet of elevation will favor one area over another, but those microclimate effects are not as noticeable during organized severe outbreaks as they are with garden variety stuff.
  16. Lake Huron shadow. But you deserve a weenie tag from Texas Man for complaining about climatology.
  17. Flint area going to get crushed with straight line winds and supercell mergers.
  18. I think the best chance of rotation is when the line interacts with any lake breezes later in the afternoon. Problem is the the low level wind is strong so it would probably be over the water. Otherwise the 0-3 km is kinda unidirectional. Thats the only problem though. CAPE and overall shear are impressive.
