A few passing flurry episodes this morning here. We've had 2.3" of snow since January 13th.

Spring/Summer '24 Banter and Complaint Thread
cyclone77 replied to IWXwx's topic in Lakes/Ohio Valley
Yeah that was a fun event. Got on the sup that would eventually drop the Good Hope tor early on and got a great glimpse of the incoming classic supercell structure. I still kick myself for not staying in the original time lapse position longer, as the tornado ended up coming down very close to that location and would have made for an amazing time lapse. Ended up positioning a bit further southeast to avoid incoming hail from vault moving in, and still got a great look at the formation of the wall cloud that dropped the tornado shortly after. You can see it form around the 30 sec mark in the time lapse. -
Nice thundery soaker overnight with 0.72". Just shy of 2" for the month now.

2024 Short/Medium Range Severe Weather Discussion

Never been a big fan of these kind of setups where the east/west front starts to crash southward during the warmest part of the day, as some models show. Seems like with the good setups the warm front will at least slowly advance northward during the daytime at least. -

Most of the DVN cwa looks to be locked into cold/northeast low-level flow on Thu as the warm front looks like it's gonna be more like a stationary front. Other than hailers the best shot at severe looks to be over MO and the southern 60% of IL. -

Looks like a good chance at a 1" soaker tomorrow night and Friday. We've been very dry after the mid Jan snowstorms so the moisture will be appreciated.

Hmmm, after seeing your pics I'm gonna change my name to lotterywinner

Finished with 0.58"

Most of this afternoon/evening's activity has skirted this immediate area, but a nice cell just hit with a brief torrential downpour and some sleet sized hail. Picked up a quick 1/4" of rain.

Over 20 severe hail reports so far in IA/IL/MO/WI. Looks like a slight risk definitely would've been warranted. No severe watch either. EDIT: Now over 30 reports of severe hail. -

Yeah I lol'd. Not sure what that was all about. Did see some pretty nice supercell structures, including the eastern QC tor warned hailer a short while ago. -
Another new record high today at MLI at 77. Hit 76 here.

Had a 40-50ft section of one of the south Hackberry trees split off this afternoon. About 15" diameter at the attachment. Made it to 76 here, 79 at MLI. May make another run at 80 tomorrow.
