Chicago WX Posted August 7, 2011 Share Posted August 7, 2011 81/81 at Warsaw with moisture pooling ahead of the storms in IN. Noisy t storm starting here as I type this. No svr warning. Torrential rain. Muggy. Just 89/72 here at 1PM. Looks like the line of storms skirting the northern Tippy Co line are trying backbuild SW a bit. OKK looks to be in line for some fun stuff from that line soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cyclone77 Posted August 7, 2011 Share Posted August 7, 2011 Bad time for the IND 88D to be down lol. Gonna be a close call at LAF. It does look like it wants to build southwest, so things could get pretty exciting there over the next hour or so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Line on the northern fringe of the county line creeping ever so slightly ESE, as well as some stuff trying develop to the SW. We'll hope for the best.

Chicago WX Posted August 7, 2011 Share Posted August 7, 2011 33k ft tops on that new cell southeast of Fowler. Another 23k ft cell quickly growing southwest of that. That's probably our best bet here. Cool looking skies here, with towers going up in the western/northwestern horizon and very dark clouds to the north.

Noticed some nice towers growing in the northern sky a bit ago when I ran to Subway. Looks like some low-topped cold core type convection trying to pop along some sort of secondary boundary up by Dubuque. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
