MN Transplant Posted May 27, 2018 Share Posted May 27, 2018 The lightning strikes are winding down which is good news. The best VILs are also sagging south. However the most active area is now NW sinking toward the area. Hopefully we see that area disrupted before it gets close to EC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
