Geos Posted April 25, 2016 Share Posted April 25, 2016 First cell is just out of reach. Nice lightning and thunder show. Back end cell looks to be on course to hit here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cyclone77 Posted April 25, 2016 Share Posted April 25, 2016 Already back home. Big HRRR fail for the southwest part of the line. Saw about 20 turkey towers go up and fail. Did get a little more tan though lol. Still possible that something could pop further southwest, but I'm not heading back out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
homedis Posted April 25, 2016 Share Posted April 25, 2016 I'm liking the path of these storms relative to me- just hoping they strengthen a little more. Ill probably end up with a plain old thunderstorm if the storms don't fire up more, ill take it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SchaumburgStormer Posted April 25, 2016 Share Posted April 25, 2016 These storms definitely aren't producing ground reports of very large hail. Great radar returns appear to be translating to lots of pea sized hail Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wisconsinwx Posted April 25, 2016 Share Posted April 25, 2016 I tried to make a play on a storm that had a report of golf ball sized hail near Jackson in Washington County. The core of the storm ended up passing a few miles to my north though. Still got some brief heavy rain and small hail. I'll try to post a couple pictures later this evening.

IllinoisWedges Posted April 25, 2016 Share Posted April 25, 2016 Wouldn't give up hope just yet. Maybe some stuff going up in NC Illinois, S/SW of Rochelle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SchaumburgStormer Posted April 25, 2016 Share Posted April 25, 2016 Wouldn't give up hope just yet. Maybe some stuff going up in NC Illinois, S/SW of Rochelle. Those are going to move into a worked over environment. Would be surprised if they are able to even sustain eastward Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IllinoisWedges Posted April 25, 2016 Share Posted April 25, 2016 Those are going to move into a worked over environment. Would be surprised if they are able to even sustain eastward Yea. Damn, was really hoping to get something today before the crappy pattern we're headed into. Just gotta remember that late-May-July is the best time for storms around here.
