FaceTimed with my fiancé as it was rolling in. Power was flickering at home even before the shelf rolled in. Got lucky again this time 

High wind and damage reports are starting to trickle in from your area on the SPC page.

Full sun popped us to 90/78/104. Will see if the boundary working south can initiate something. 

Would be tempting but it's even more in the heart of the metro than 7/12 was. Got lucky to glimpse the Plato/Elgin twins just before they moved into the zone of solid urban cul-de-sacs/trees/traffic.

zzz…. No good lightning once again.

Nearly every system has found a way to put red+ blobs on radar right on Grand Rapids area   As I type this Grand Rapids is getting hammered again.  I am not sure you will be happy unless your house has been leveled by a EF5.

Ha, you act like they'll allow an EF5 rating anymore

I knew when it was overcast for most of the aft and the temp was dropping hours before the storms arrived that my energy would be squandered. I surprisingly got some minor power flickers a hour ago but its basically just a gentle thunder shower :lmao:. Very slow onset, no dark skies, dead calm. Yesterday's forecast output may not have been glue-sniffed after all. I'm not complaining.

Man the atmosphere is really recovering quickly. Ample shear & helicity to the east of current warnings in SE MI, lets just see if we can continue to build up. My house is currently at 75 degrees with a dewpoint of 75. 

I just think it needed about 2 more hours. It's a shame we couldn't get that overlap better timed with the ingredients

It’s a race of time right now.

A potent MCV continues steadily moving east across S WI. The window of opportunity is fairly short though, before the MCV moves too far east.

Shall see how it goes here over the next two hours or so, but a solid environment for severe t'storms is advecting back in, in the wake of the early round of activity.

And not surprisingly, nothing happened. 

Timing on the passage of the MCV was just not optimal, a few hours too early.

Umm.  I don’t live at the airport.  There were some very disorganized clusters with occasional CG lightning about 3-4 miles south and east.   Just downpours and soft rumbles from tiny cells right here.  Similar to what has happened previously.  Wanting CGs close enough to see is not the same as wanting an EF5.  Ugh.

Judging by how widespread the rain and storms were there in GRR's area I have a hard time believing you didn't get a good thunderstorm
