Anyways cell to the east near Stanhope has a cc drop and has a confirmed tornado. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Indystorm Posted July 14, 2021 Share Posted July 14, 2021 Mesoscale Discussion 1287 NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0542 PM CDT Wed Jul 14 2021 Areas affected...Eastern IA...Northern IL...Southern WI Concerning...Severe potential...Watch likely Valid 142242Z - 142345Z Probability of Watch Issuance...80 percent SUMMARY...Severe threat is increasing across eastern IA/northwestern IL into southern WI. New ww will likely be warranted soon. DISCUSSION...Early-day MCS has progressed across the upper Midwest with the leading edge now spreading across LE. Considerable boundary-layer disruption has been noted across WI/northern IL into extreme northeast IA. However, over the last few hours, partial clearing across eastern IA has allowed surface temperatures to warm into the lower 80s from east of ALO-MXO-CWI-north of C75 in Illinois. Further recover appears likely to near the WI/IL border over the next few hours. While updrafts may struggle to be truly surface-based where temperatures struggle to rise above 75F, there is increasing concern/confidence that ongoing supercells over central IA will progress east of ww378 into a region that is recovering in the wake of earlier convection. Ample shear/buoyancy suggest supercells will continue, along with a tornado threat. Additionally, LLJ is forecast to increase across southern/central WI this evening and this should encourage renewed convective development. New ww will likely be issued soo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chicago Storm Posted July 15, 2021 Share Posted July 15, 2021 For those in N IL/Chicago metro, don't expect that complex out west to come rolling through with any interest. 0z DVN sounding is underwhelming to say the least...And mesoanalysis is way overdone. EDIT: Disregard the above. COD having issues per usual these days, and the 0z sounding it showed me was actually from 12z. The environment is hot...carry on.

hawkeye_wx Posted July 15, 2021 Share Posted July 15, 2021 The Benton county storm is lifting a bit north as it moves east, so it's out of the picture for Cedar Rapids. If I'm going to get anything, it'll have to be from the west. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

indeedinger Posted July 15, 2021 Share Posted July 15, 2021 2.75 inches of rain today and still raining - more than we've had in the last two months. Luckily avoided severe weather also - Waverly, Oelwein, Manchester and more were not so lucky. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hawkeye_wx Posted July 15, 2021 Share Posted July 15, 2021 It appears likely Cedar Rapids is going to get absolutely nothing tonight as storms pass north and south. Un f'ing believable. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Un f'ing believable. It is hard to believe given how things have looked all night; however, considering (up until tonight) Independence has had the same fate multiple times this year I do believe it. I'm actually amazed we got what we did this evening. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
