Chargers09 Posted June 22, 2015 Share Posted June 22, 2015 Sure looks like this line is getting ready to bow. Possibly pointed right at the Chicago area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quincy Posted June 22, 2015 Share Posted June 22, 2015 We are in nowcast/radar/obs mode, but 4km NAM shows a pool of weaker instability in the wake of this MCS hanging around, especially across southern Wisconsin and far northern Illinois. Doesn't seem entirely unreasonable: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A-L-E-K Posted June 22, 2015 Share Posted June 22, 2015 Sure looks like this line is getting ready to bow. Possibly pointed right at the Chicago area. gonna need a new watch for at least portions of N. IL and S.

Kaner88 Posted June 22, 2015 Share Posted June 22, 2015 80MPH wind gusts mentioned on the severe thunderstorm warning in northwest IL, not to mention the impressive radar display it's putting up. Got up early to close up the umbrella on the patio table before the storms; last time we had a big wind event, the umbrella was lifted up and out, shattering the glass table and breaking the umbrella. Just got a new table yesterday & I'd like to make this one last... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hawkeye_wx Posted June 22, 2015 Share Posted June 22, 2015 A lot of wind damage reports heading into Dubuque. The line is just missing me to the north. Cedar Rapids has only been teased the last few days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Powerball Posted June 22, 2015 Share Posted June 22, 2015 The infrared and water vapor satellite loop of the MCS is pretty impressive. It must be producing a ton of lightning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quincy Posted June 22, 2015 Share Posted June 22, 2015 One possible scenario from the MCS is trailing outflow/cold pool sets up near or perhaps a bit SW of the IL/WI border. Then one might want to watch the northern fringe of stronger instability and how that lines up with outflow/cold front intersection. HRRR seems to like that right near the state-line, where the NAM is slightly further south into IL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cyclone77 Posted June 22, 2015 Share Posted June 22, 2015 The wake low winds earlier this morning over southwest MN/northwest IA are the most impressive I've ever seen. Numerous reports of 65-75mph wind gusts. I think I read somewhere it was actually perhaps a descending rear-inflow jet. Either way whatever it was that has to be some of the most impressive non-thunderstorm wind gusts associated with an MCS that we've seen in these parts.

I'm sure some of our crew with better memories will remember the specifics but yeah, impressive Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
