Severe Threat June 11-13

UGH.  There was time in my younger years where I used to look forward to these events.  Then last year's derecho happened at the end of June.  Our neighbor's tree landed on our deck, we were without power for a week, and temps were in the upper 90's that whole week!  Since then I have huge anxiety whenever I hear about pending severe events, especially one like this that sounds exactly the same as that one.  Be careful what you wish for, guys!

 

Takes a lot of hype to get me to post here in the 'off-season' (winter wx-wise).   But yea, this one is really being touted by the local news outlets.   I think it has a lot to do with the last Junes derecho and the fact that it was basically missed by forecasters and hit us from behind like a 2x4....amazing considering it was the most memorable severe event for me ever.

 

I'm thinking our biggest threat, locally, will be with isolated large severe cells late afternoon/evening.   The complex that forms upstream won't be through here until the wee hours of the morning.  I have a hard time believing it will be that bad, considering the timing and the fact that it will come on the heels of a stormy afternoon/evening.   Caveat would be if we have no pop ups this afternoon and we bake through sunset.

Is it too early to ask for thoughts on how and when this storm system will impact the Indy metro area?

 

Going to have to watch how the complex/storms develop in IL later today...mainly to see what motion they end up taking. If they look to move SE/ESE, then you can probably expect storms late tonight in the Indy metro...damaging wind threat would certainly still be valid down there. But, just going to have to see how things evolve.

Things remain largely unchanged from what I was seeing last night, going to get ready and hit the road here momentarily initial target is going to be somewhere along I-80 from South Bend to Joliet monitoring though the early afternoon to see how it plays out.

Have a constructive and safe trip and look forward to your updates and observations.
