July 5th and beyond Severe Weather thread


Recommended Posts

Wondering if that bow will pass east/ne and leave me on the southern edge here in Michiana as it crosses LM or if there will be a more se push. Lots of scattered convection behind the bow in southern IA moving ne. That is one strong heat ridge/theta axis.

The bowing segment along the WI/IL border looks like it's trying to push NE or at least ENE, slightly elongating the complex. I hope it doesn't break apart the bow into smaller segments.

Looks like it took a more east turn as opposed to ENE the last couple frames, the longer it survives, the better chances of a south turn.

Looks like they took a pretty direct hit, so that isn't all that bad. Will be interesting to see what comes out of RFD, looks like best shear is displaced enough north to be keeping things in check.

Last ob from RFD was a 50MPH gust.

My parents in Center Point, IA just called on a cell - no power, tree down on house, large shed moved 30 feet off its foundation. Local TV reporting roof off school in Urbana and showing all sorts of homes damaged or even destroyed. My Dad sounded spooked, and that doesn't happen easily. Had to be winds 80MPH+. I'm heading down in a few minutes to help clean up. KCRG TV just showed a brick building in Vinton with what looked to be the top floor destroyed.

Yeah, the two counties west of Cedar Rapids and the northern part of CR's county took the brunt as the line really bowed there. There are a lot of damage reports from that area.

The slightly better DBZs seem to be across the southern row of counties in Wisconsin, but I'm not sure which part of the line has the worst damaging winds.

Decent comma head feature forming south of Madison, woudn't be shocked to see the best winds for the time being with or just behind that feature.

Impressive obs! This looks to be what SPC was talking about in their MCD, as the rear-inflow jet was sampled here.

6z NAM has SBCAPE over 8000 J/kg here later. Nice fat CAPE profile but I guess it has to be to get a value that high.
