From the last mesoscale discussion: "In the presence of 20-30 kt west-southwesterly mean ambient flow, moderately strong easterly updraft inflow of seasonably moist air characterized by CAPE in excess of 1500 J/kg seems likely to maintain current convective intensities at least to the the southwestern shores of Lake Michigan. As long as this continues, westerly rear inflow probably will remain sufficiently strong to contribute to strong to severe surface gusts in downdrafts." Guess we'll see about that lmao

Looks like maybe we'll get some drought mitigation the next day or two after all?

Planning to go back to Warren Dunes on the 5th. Was there for the first time this year on the very first day of this recent heat wave. It was already pretty decent. Since then, water temps have risen an additional like 7 degrees.

Just imagine... One minute you're doom scrolling your way down the road and then next thing you know not only do you need at bare minimum a new windshield but a camera crew is there recording your ass. Still beats dying ig

This cooldown is bullshit.

Dude fuck that's awful

Obviously my hopes are not up for any storms locally but I figure we might catch some cool sunset views between the dust and anything that does manage to spring up in sight right

Think the city might still get a decent hit?

At least it looks and sounds cool tho

Bit of a quandary because like always, I want to go on a dog-jog to the forest preserve hill a mile and change from my house to try and get some pictures if it works out that way but I think I'd rather lay down in a ditch and ride out a tornado than try my luck sprinting home in 50 cal hail if I fuck up (esp w pup along for the ride)

Ig it's something to be able to roll the die during the day for once instead of at 11:30 p.m. but LOT doesn't exactly sound thrilled yet either. Between that and our old pal Chitown Storm, my hopes will remain tempered. Such is the life of a weather fan that relies essentially excusively on the word of others

Looks like a livestormchasing.com dog walk stream sesh will be going down later

Pretty hyped for what I imagine will be a great greenup next week after some warmer temps and more rain

Am I just reading things or is this upcoming system like one more missed phase-type throwback to this winter? As in the way the last few systems were amped and all that and now this southern one is a clunker™ again

That has to be the most adorable and well defined mini supercell I've seen so far

Memes aside good clearing going on

Greenup season is going to hit dif one of these days

Sunset will look sick on the tail end

Dude the amount of dust in this rain is actually staggering. The roof of my car is literally covered in brownish residue

How are things looking for Wednesday? Just happy that it looks to be a during the day sort of affair for any storms that do pop up at least

Not a good time to be in the mcdicks drive thru tbh

Biggest flakes of the season right now, obv nothing else coming of it but that's fun for sure

Good one

Holy fuck it just hit me how much I can't wait for t-storm season watching some little showers crawl across Southern Wisconsin
