Hoosier Posted April 18, 2013 Share Posted April 18, 2013 Can't say I'm too excited about severe chances locally later in the day though these things can change pretty quickly as we know. We'll see what kind of recovery we can get. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hm8 Posted April 18, 2013 Share Posted April 18, 2013 Never seen a storm hit that fast in my life. I was just standing there, enjoying 50-60 mph wind gusts, wondering when it was gonna start raining. All of a sudden I see this wall of rain speeding towards me across the field like a frigging freight train. **** went full beast mode for like 2 min and now we're back to drizzle. That was kinda redic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Indystorm Posted April 18, 2013 Share Posted April 18, 2013 Tor warning for Carbondale IL area now. And as I look at IND radar loops it seems convection is moving more northward rather than eastward with incipient cells ahead of the line beginning to pop up east of Vincennes.

And as I look at IND radar loops it seems convection is moving more northward rather than eastward with incipient cells ahead of the line beginning to pop up east of Vincennes. The stuff south of I-70 should be the start of the activity that will eventually work into southern MI around nightfall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harry Perry Posted April 18, 2013 Share Posted April 18, 2013 Driving to GR for some parts for a van I'm working on. Light rain, temperature is 61 and what a bummer on today. It just didn't materialize up here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hm8 Posted April 18, 2013 Share Posted April 18, 2013 I've never seen a storm hit so hard so fast. Was just standing there, enjoying a 50-60mph gust front wondering when the rain was gonna come. Then all of a sudden I see this wall of rain barreling toward me across the field like a friggen freight train. It went from nothing to a torrential, sideways downpour in less then a second, no exaggerating. Thing went full beat mode for like 2 min and then stopped. Really cool storm.

nrgjeff Posted April 18, 2013 Share Posted April 18, 2013 Central Illinois stuff ramping up now. New shortwave energy, the back/southern part, is coming out of Ark. That'll track east to Indiana. Figure central/southern Illinois has building tornado threat this afternoon. Southwest Indiana may get it late afternoon early eve. Rest of Indiana mainly straight winds. PDS box mostly due to high winds. Note the hatched 45% wind in the main Convective Outlook. Hatched 10% tornado is business as usual in a MDT risk. Be safe and enjoy!

I kinda disagree with that about the PDS watch. The 70/60 tornado probs seem to indicate they were expecting something that as of yet has not come close to materializing. That said, the Carbondale storm is looking more and more threatening. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Indystorm Posted April 18, 2013 Share Posted April 18, 2013 Line does look fairly potent sw of you Hoosier. Plus those tor warned cells in southern IL moving NE. I will really kick myself if this morning's RAP sig tor of 6-7 for LAF and environs ends up verifying this evening because of a mesolow or wave on the front.
