B-Rent Posted July 20, 2012 Share Posted July 20, 2012 Had a very intense storm pop up at work this evening on the NE side of Indianapolis. Lots of power outages, trees down and fires from the lightning. Best storm I've seen in probably over a year. Only around .5-.8 inches of rain though which fell in 15 minutes Some extreme CG strikes. We had quite a bit of ponding but that went away very quickly and after awhile you couldnt tell it rained. I posted an over/under of 5 house fires in Fishers last night. Haven't heard how that did. I saw some people saying it was the biggest lightning storm they have seen in a long time. I was down town Indy at the Indians game, got about 15 min of light rain, that was it.

Jonger Posted July 20, 2012 Share Posted July 20, 2012 75 degrees at noon. Feels like a early September day. Puffy cumulus floating by as well. The clouds have that certain cool weather northwest flow look to them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Geos Posted July 20, 2012 Share Posted July 20, 2012 High 77° today, partly sunny for most of the day. I'll take this weather straight through late September - with bouts of rain here and there of course! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpartyOn Posted July 21, 2012 Share Posted July 21, 2012 Epic heat it appears. Esspecially for the IN crews. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A-L-E-K Posted July 21, 2012 Share Posted July 21, 2012 amazing how acclimated to the heat I had become...I almost felt chilly in the low 70s Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hoar_Frost Posted July 21, 2012 Share Posted July 21, 2012 The high here today was 83. The clouds broke fairly quickly this morning. The topsoil has dried considerably today; I'd say that, by the end of tomorrow, soil conditions will be back to where they were before Wednesday night's rain, with the vegetation close behind. Of course, I had relatively rain (0.57"). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jonger Posted July 21, 2012 Share Posted July 21, 2012 Epic heat it appears. Esspecially for the IN crews. Looks like it stays SW of us mainly, the rest of the next 15 days don't look to hot here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hm8 Posted July 21, 2012 Share Posted July 21, 2012 amazing how acclimated to the heat I had become...I almost felt chilly in the low 70s reached 80* here today and the pool was absolutely dead. Lifegaurds wearing sweatshirts in the morning too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geos Posted July 21, 2012 Share Posted July 21, 2012 Really nice night outside, 66° with light winds. Top layer of soil is still moist, which has led to greening lawns and blossoming wildflowers in the last 2 days. EURO painting quite a bit of convection in southern WI into SW MI for Tuesday with coolish temperatures. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stebo Posted July 21, 2012 Share Posted July 21, 2012 Right now it is 60 degrees out and it most certainly feels cool outside. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A-L-E-K Posted July 21, 2012 Share Posted July 21, 2012 Skilling hyping up several rounds of NW flow storms next week. I've been on board for a couple days now...LOT agrees OVERALL HIGH PRECIPITABLE WATER AIR...A RIGHT REAR ENTRANCE TO THE JET ACROSS THE AREA...AND BELOW NORMAL SEA LEVEL PRESSURES FOR MID- SUMMER LIKELY FAVOR BETTER CHANCES FOR STORMS THAN WE HAVE SEEN IN THE PAST MONTH TO MONTH AND A HALF. IN GENERAL A GUIDANCE BLEND IS PROVIDING THAT. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chicago WX Posted July 21, 2012 Share Posted July 21, 2012 Real nice day yesterday. Brief break from the tortuous heat, but much appreciated. Talked to guy yesterday who said he heard that starting Monday, Lafayette will see a stretch of 100º+ every day for the next two weeks. First thought of mine was, that's Hoosier's dream scenario. Second was, I wonder if Hoosier started that rumor? Just kidding Ryan...just kidding. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aurora Posted July 21, 2012 Share Posted July 21, 2012 The last two days were a nice little break from the heat. Back to the furnace on Sunday/Monday though. On the bright side, the stronger flow looks to be in the vicinity of Michigan for the next week or so, so I'm betting on a round or two of thunderstorms in that timeframe.

BowMeHunter Posted July 21, 2012 Share Posted July 21, 2012 cautiously optimistic.. its definitively continuing to look much more favorable here on paper than earlier in the season when we were hung out to dry. Should be pretty fun and busy on the board next week. Hoosier, Chicago Storm and Tropical get their heat fetish fancied and its looking like the rains could be shared by most.

Brewers Posted July 21, 2012 Share Posted July 21, 2012 Dropped to 61 last night, clouds should keep temps in check today Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geos Posted July 21, 2012 Share Posted July 21, 2012 Low 61° this morning. Up to 80°, but mid level clouds have moved in. Thinking mid 80s for most of the afternoon. Edit: Interesting, thunderstorms have been added to this afternoons forecast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daddylonglegs Posted July 21, 2012 Share Posted July 21, 2012 Light rain all morning...not adding up to much but better then no rain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hawkeye_wx Posted July 21, 2012 Share Posted July 21, 2012 This is the third straight day our high temp has come up a few to several degrees short of forecast because of clouds. They are sticking around even longer today. The break from scorching sun and heat is very nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geos Posted July 21, 2012 Share Posted July 21, 2012 Clouds hanging tough today. At 85°, but the clouds take the edge off the heat. Looks like even thicker clouds upstream. Last two 4km NAM nested runs are a good 5-6° off for highs here today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chicago Storm Posted July 21, 2012 Share Posted July 21, 2012 Made it up to 88, but it has since dropped back to 86 as a thicker/solid deck of clouds has moved in. That should be it for the high on the day. ORD is up to 87. Looks like it will be only the 2nd missed 90+ day on the year due to convection/cloud debris.

A-L-E-K Posted July 21, 2012 Share Posted July 21, 2012 THE MONDAY NIGHT THROUGH THURSDAY NIGHT PERIOD LOOKS TO BE A MORE ACTIVE PERIOD AND WE COULD SEE AT LEAST A COUPLE OF POTENTIALLY HEALTHY MCS`S TRACK ACROSS THE REGION. IN FACT...COMBINATION OF SEASONABLY HIGH PWATS POOLING ALONG THE BOUNDARY AND BELT OF STRONGER NORTHWESTERLY FLOW ALOFT NEARBY COULD RESULT IN A ROUND OR TWO OF SEVERE WEATHER AND EVEN THE POTENTIAL FOR HEAVY RAINFALL.
