Hoosier Posted June 24, 2019 Share Posted June 24, 2019 Funny how the caption says possible tornado. Ya think? Just another reminder that occasionally you can get something like this on days which really aren't synoptically evident. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hoosier Posted June 24, 2019 Share Posted June 24, 2019 IWX has the path map up as well as other stuff https://www.weather.gov/iwx/SouthBendTornado_6-23-2019 Only moved 2 miles in 10 minutes. That is slow anywhere but especially slow for this part of the country. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Around the 55 sec mark you can see a large chunk of tree floating in the air, and eventually crashes around the 1:02 mark. Around the 1:04 mark you can see a tree get uprooted on the right side of the vid, just after that large piece of tree lands. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chinook Posted June 26, 2019 Share Posted June 26, 2019 Midnight- these high-reflectivity storms in SW Iowa must be dumping rain and hail. I bet the lightning is impressive, considering that lightning is so easy to see at nighttime. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hlcater Posted June 26, 2019 Share Posted June 26, 2019 The upcoming pattern isn't great at all for severe lovers, which is bad news considering severe weather never really showed up for western portions of the sub(though IN has been having a great season so far). All models build in a suffocating ridge centered directly over the midwest and keep it there for at least a week. Think it's safe to write off any notable chances for severe weather until at least the 4th, if not later. Tomorrow holds some conditional chances of an MCS for IA/IL, but I would like a respectable setup worth chasing. Too much to ask for? Apparently so. As of now, I think I'd have to put the season so far as the worst one since 2013 in my area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think the pattern is as bleak as you are saying especially for ridge riding MCSs, though I do think Iowa may be too far south in this case with the ridge starting to flex its muscles a bit.

I think we'll be too far SW, especially initially, but it seems plausible that the ridge settles into a more traditional position centered over the Panhandles with time. Once this happens a more favorable pattern for severe weather/NW flow may return, but I think this is at least 8 or 9 days out. For now, areas in the northeast of the sub have the greatest chances.

Chicago Storm Posted June 27, 2019 Share Posted June 27, 2019 Chicago Storm reporting 2" hail from the storm at Streamwood. I know from experience that will do some damage. I'm getting a new roof due to the May tennis balls.What a day... Hit 90 for the first time this year here this afternoon. The lake breeze passed around 6PM, and combined with the fact that the developing storms were along I-88 and moving ESE, I didn’t think we’d see anything. One storm managed to push NE though, along outflow that was surging NE as well, from the main activity further south. The storm was high based, and had that good picturesque high based structure. A nice hail shaft was clearly visible too as it moved in. The storm ended up maxing out as it passed overhead. Ended up with a solid nearly 5-10 minute period of hail, with a few of the biggest stones up to 2.25”. Strong winds up to 55-60mph also accompanied the hail, making for a quality downburst. Trees were shredded with leaves flying everywhere, due to the hail/wind combo. The wind ended up bringing down a few small branches in the area as well. There was also widespread road flooding, mostly due to the combination heavy rains with the downburst and tree debris clogging storm drains. Following the storm was a double rainbow, some mammatus, and a quality backlit view of the storms departing at sunset. There is still hail up to nearly penny size on the ground at this time, nearly 3 hours post storm. Believe it or not, this was the first storm to produce severe criteria activity IMBY since 2011. . 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DISCUSSION...RADAR SIGNATURE ALONG THE SOUTHERN PERIPHERY OF THE LARGER MCS MOVING INTO MN AND NORTHERN IA HAS SHOWN INCREASED ORGANIZATION AND FORWARD PROPAGATION OVER THE PAST HALF HOUR. CURRENT STORM MOTION IS ESTIMATED AS EAST-SOUTHEAST AT 35 KT. AT THIS SPEED, THE LINE WILL LIKELY MOVE INTO NORTHERN/NORTHWESTERN PORTIONS OF THE DMX CWA AROUND 15Z. THERE IS SOME POTENTIAL FOR AN INCREASE IN FORWARD SPEED, BRINGING IT TO THAT REGION EARLIER. ORGANIZING CHARACTER OF THIS LINE AND DOWNSTREAM DIURNAL DESTABILIZATION SUGGEST AN INCREASED THREAT FOR DAMAGING WIND GUSTS ACROSS NORTHWEST AND NORTH-CENTRAL IA. ADDITIONALLY, CONVECTIVE LINE MOVING ACROSS CENTRAL AND SOUTHERN MN MAY REACH EASTERN PORTIONS OF THE SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WATCH 452 BY 15Z. AS A RESULT, ANOTHER WATCH WILL LIKELY BE NEEDED DOWNSTREAM OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WATCH 452 ACROSS PORTIONS OF NORTHERN AND SOUTHERN MN SOON.
