All Activity

Nice outside. Too warm inside. A/C turned on for first time this season on second floor. With sun pouring in the temperature up there was 78 degrees. No thanks. Still cool on the main floor 73 degrees. A very comfortable 68 degrees down in the Man Cave. Pollen season underway with green dust building up on everything. Another reason to keep the windows closed. Beautiful outside though. Low humidity, a nice breeze and temperature 84 down from a high 85. Will be watering the grass seed again this evening. Could use some rain.

Seabreeze through here. Kicked wind up. Cooled temps off a tiny bit.

It looks like it's about to rotate a bunch.

NAM had Islip at 71. It hit 78. It stinks

WB 12Z EPS...hopefully the wetter and cooler forecast for late April will verify!

82/60

That Iowa cell already looks like its producing massive hail.

We are well inside the tornado watch, but models are mostly keeping the storms north of Cedar Rapids.

SPC should’ve just included NE IL in that watch; it’s just gonna be extended eventually.

Three alarm brushfire now in Greenfield.

Nice big watch box now. Some strong-ish language… Tornado Watch for portions of Central and Eastern lowa Northern Illinois Extreme Southeast Minnesota Southern Wisconsin Lake Michigan Effective this Tuesday afternoon and evening from 230 PM until 1000 PM CDT. Primary threats include... Several tornadoes and a couple intense tornadoes likely Widespread large hail and scattered very large hail events to 4 inches in diameter likely Scattered damaging winds likely with isolated significant gusts to 75 mph possible SUMMARY...Supercell thunderstorms will pose a threat for very large to giant hail this afternoon and evening as they track eastward, with the largest hailstones potentially reaching up to 3-4 inches in diameter. The threat for several tornadoes will increase later this afternoon and evening along a warm front, and any sustained supercell will be capable of producing a strong tornado. Otherwise, scattered to numerous severe/damaging winds may eventually occur as thunderstorms consolidate into one or more bowing clusters, with peak gusts up to 65-75 mph.

After a low of 51, got ot 86 as a high, 84 now.

86/54

I'll gladly switch

83 earlier, dropped back to 79 now. Summah!!

Now S coast seabreeze kicks in and temp rebounds to 78.

Same. Want to drop fert and lime and overseed, but the Stein is strong.

85/86 here keeps flipping back and forth. Just your run of the mill +30 day

Yeah, 60 here and we just had a brief downpour.

Cell about to explode near Watseka

Can never be too sure, I guess.

Back door sea breeze just came through and dropped the temp from 85 to 75 in 30 minutes. It's actually refreshing.

It’s definitely time.
