I saw it happening but was too busy to post anything about it at the time. NWS didn't put out a warning until spotters reported a funnel cloud. It was right on the warm front.

You're probably right about the reason that it's not being cancelled, but I believe that it's up to the local NWS office to cancel the Watch, although they may consult with SPC.

"Gilbert Sebenste (via spotternetwork.org) @ 19:43 UTC -- (S) Funnel -- -- Spotter is 1 miles SSW of DE KALB, IL (DeKalb county) [41.917/-88.762] -- Funnel cloud begin at 2:35 PM, starting to dissipate at 2:43 PM. I am looking at it 1 mile west-northwest of this location, on the underside of a towering cumulus cloud. Came halfway to the ground, before gradually lifting. Moving almost due north. Rope-shaped funnel with a pointed end; no debris on the ground noted; likely a landspout. Funnel has just lifted at 2:45 PM."

IND issued a t-storm warning that ends at your back door. Looks like there could be some strong winds rolling through Indy that looks to run right up Pendleton Pike.

This.

I noticed that when it dumped. I'm monitoring weather for a festival here and even though we are not in line for severe, we are riding a thin line between precip and no precip. When I saw how it initialized, all I could do was

My chart might be hard to read, but Seattle does beat out Indy in July and also in August. Believe it or not, other than a near-tie in March, Indy wins every other month of the year.

The % Sun number measures the percentage of time between sunrise and sunset that sunshine reaches the ground. Total Hours is the average number of sunny hours the city normally has in a year. Clear Days is the average number of days annually when cloud covers at most 30 percent of the sky during daylight hours. Hours of sunshine are the means calculated for 1961 to 1990. Indianapolis is the top row of hours and Seattle the bottom. J F M A M J J A S O N D Total 132.1 145.7 178.3 214.8 264.7 287.2 295.2 273.7 232.6 196.6 117.1 102.4 2,440.4 55% Clear Days - 88 69.8 108.8 178.4 207.3 253.7 268.4 312.0 281.4 221.7 142.6 72.7 52.9 2,169.7 47% Clear Days - 58

Cromartie will not be happy to see this.

It probably won't match the 40+ in the subforum from a couple of weeks ago, but we should end up in double digit tornadoes in Indiana. IND has teams looking at Rush, Bartholomew, Decatur, and Hancock Counties today. EDIT: Survey team found EF-2 damage south of Rushville.

It's getting real ugly in Southern Indiana. A swarm of tornadoes and heavy rain yesterday and areas receiving over 6" today.

Anomalous cold? Yes. Hyperbole? Yes. Weather is just not good for palm trees.

Seeing reports of a possible touchdown in Henry County, Ohio about 4 hours ago

Could the filtered sun due to the smoke dampen convective perimeters as compared to what the CAMs are predicting?

Where is the obligatory CFSv2 from 5/31 for June? Without posting the crappy maps, it looks like it's calling for near normal temps and near normal precip with below normal precip for the northern part of the subforum.

This morning's 3k NAM really pumps up the SB/MUCAPE into the 4000J/kg range in Northern Indiana tomorrow afternoon and depicts quite the squall line stretching across the state and dropping straight south from the IN/MI state line and moving well into southern IN before weakening. I can foresee SPC extending their slight risk through Indiana into Ohio as well as up into the ORD area with the afternoon Day 2 for winds.

At least he doesn't have to water his palm trees.

Yeah, I'm being facetious. I would not be able to tolerate San Diego weather. Unlike you though, I like spring weather and a few 75° days after winter is really enjoyable.

Me either. I used to drink a lot of beer at Ball State in Muncie Indiana. I had never heard of Muncie, IL.

NegativeEPO can bitch and moan all he/she wants, but I'll take 75° and sunny (like today was after the QLCS) any day of the year (except Christmas).

I know a few farmers around here in Northeast Indiana and they all agree that June 8th is the drop dead date to plant corn. Otherwise it won't be ready in time without drying it which substantially adds to the cost of production and makes it a losing proposition. As far as soybeans, the price is already depressed due to the sanctions with China. With a much smaller market to sell to, the farmers I spoke with are planning on minimizing their soybean plantings.

Yes sir.
