    Neither MLI nor DVN have an observer. MLI is the only site with augmented OBS, likely conducted by someone in the ATCT (usually ass-y OBS).

    they're not going to cancel it and then re-issue it for tomorrow, dingus. the better question is, why is the criteria so low around there. (the same can be said for other cwa's as well)

    i'd say it has been pretty active.

    what are you paying for? has to be something with a big up-front cost.

    interesting question… would ya’ll trade theclimatechanger straight up for cromartie?

    No quality pictures today, unfortunately. The front sagged through here at ORD just as this stuff got going out west and moved in, so it's a miss south up here. I was watching the cam while it hit down at home. It looks like the best wind missed just south, but the lightning was the best of the year easily... Top shelf CG action.

    na, that had zero impact on the day.

    A line of t’storms/severe t’storms just moved through a short time ago, both at home and here at ORD. Watched it on cam when it hit home, and looked visually liked 50MPH+ peak wind gusts. Here at ORD the ASOS wind sensor went down, so had to use back-up airfield sensors, which had a peak wind gust of 67MPH. But, honestly, it looked nothing close to that here at the office. Here’s a shot as the activity was moving in…

    and it isn't even warranted. sad times, really.

    2.07" of rain at ORD last evening/night and into early this morning.

    paging hawkeye.

    i should say, the enhanced is fine, it’s the placement that is horrid. way too far SE/E. there shouldn’t be a slight in the metro, let alone an enhanced nosing in.
  21. Chicago Storm
    trash outlook. not supported by cams or the environment.
  22. Chicago Storm
    finally some decent deep summer action around here. nothing severe, but this is a step in the right direction.
  23. Chicago Storm
    look at the radar just west? don't go all you know who on us.

    It appears that a combination of a couple of factors lead to the setup... An MCV was passing nearby (just south) and a weak front was moving through, which aided in the initial development of activity. There was also a lake breeze that was set up just inland, which appears to have had a [positive] effect on t'storm outflow attempting to push westward against a weak 10-20KT southwesterly LLJ that was in place, thus leading to the re-development and training of activity across that corridor.

    Quite a flood event on the near west side early last night.
