The small cluster earlier was tied the initial passing MCV. Activity behind this arc, around DVN, is fading with good clearing behind it. . Yeah I am expecting to be cleared out nicely around the noon hour. Plenty of time to crank before initiation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
frostfern Posted June 26, 2020 Share Posted June 26, 2020 Looks like a stratiform rain event up here. Clouds everywhere. Typical. Don't know what SPC was thinking putting the enhanced risk up here yesterday. Wouldn't be bothered if the long range wasn't so dry and uneventful. Rub it in and give me a weenie. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

frostfern Posted June 26, 2020 Share Posted June 26, 2020 Maybe if the moisture tongue over Iowa gets up here there will be good elevated after-dark boomers. It's just really hard to see anything surfaced based getting this far north now. Unless the 925 mb - 850 mb winds really crank behind the current crapvection complex.

Harry Perry Posted June 26, 2020 Share Posted June 26, 2020 Even though these are WAA rain showers, it’s still cooling the surface and limiting the destabilization, at least up here in the eastern portion of the enhanced risk. Forecast high was expected to be 89° today. We have stopped at 81° and don’t see any clear indication of the temp rising this afternoon/evening with the several hours of stratiform rain approaching from the west. SPC and GRR both uncertain of the extent of the WWA rain this afternoon too. I’d say the event around here to be a little more of an isolated threat for this evening. Better chances west of Lake Michigan. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chicago Storm Posted June 26, 2020 Share Posted June 26, 2020 Complex setup up unfolding with several moving pieces. Liking the ENH still, but could see the eventual need for a MOD if things work out perfectly. 2 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Liking the ENH still, but could see the eventual need for a MOD if things work out perfectly. To a novice like me these pics are really cool and informative. Especially when I sit here wondering “where” it’s at. Thank you 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not saying it's needed, because it's not as of now. But if things worked out perfectly, could see the need for one. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hoosier Posted June 26, 2020 Share Posted June 26, 2020 Been pretty well socked in with clouds here so far today. If all I knew is what's happening outside my window, I'd say big red flag in terms of severe wx later. But it is always important to look at the bigger picture and watch what is going on upstream. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yea, not sure I agree with their overall idea there. They seem focused on the OFB for robust/severe activity, and only make a glancing mentioned of development further west later. When in reality, and threat of robust/severe development along the retreating OFB is likely minimal, and the greater threat is with what develops west.
