  1. Good one, added straight to the registry of oddly specific humourous phrases
  2. Obv I know fuck all about how the atmosphere actually works but if I were a farmer in the 30s I would 100% be keeping an eye on the sky for later. Was sweating like a hooker in church out there today.
  3. Line looking decent as it scuttles east? Dusk lightning show time?
  4. Was not expecting clear blue skies today. Hopefully we can get some action before sunset
  5. Yesterday was a very interesting impromptu chase for me. Expectations were very low of course since the last chase I went on I accidentally zero metered, and I had every intention of playing it cool. First I copied our esteemed homie @CheeselandSkiesand drove NW an hour to Davis Junction -to the complex that eventually produced the DuPage county naders. I bailed on it after 45 to head home/see if I could catch one of the southern storms (if more developed). The entire drive back on 88 I was moving parallel to initial target storm, and I kept fighting to ignore the feeling that it looked like it might start doing things soon. Then, just a few miles before my exit the Elgin area got warned. It was impressive how similar the velocity signature on that farther north storm looked to the one that I had been watching so, despite having to pee like a motherfucker, I blasted north on Kirk. I think I had just seen the remnants of the bigger tornado that people had filmed -including @CheeselandSkies- when I realized that a third area of sketchy velocity readings was developing directly NW of me. I pulled over and let it pass ahead and then tried to get behind it. Obviously traffic was dog shit so I couldn't actually keep up per se but I did manage a glimpse at what looked like a wall cloud with a little rotating rope off to the side. Called it after that because I simply couldn't keep up and my bladder was about to explode.
  6. The fact that that's over my house while I'm 50 minutes NW is actually astounding
  7. Check out LOTs new update, went from not un-spicy to ghost pepper extract
  8. Looks like things are trying to get going along the IA/IL border.
  9. Really am curious to see how this afternoon unfolds. Lot's latest update is not un-spicy either.
  10. Distant rumbles of thunder here. Heavier returns are blossoming rapidly a county or so upstream so it could end up being a decent soaking here for a while.
  11. Flooding is pretty ass in the inner west suburbs. Saw a couple cars flooded out under bridges down Roosevelt Road.
  12. Finally, after what feels like a week of being missed by all the rain by irritatingly small margins, it's my turn to get soaked. Hopefully this shit keeps right on training, it's coming down good finally.
  13. Yeah, I've been checking Lake Michigan temperatures daily. It's the new snow storm tracking, if not a little anemic . I'm hoping if we get legit heat wave or two within the next month then we could make a run for at least 70°F.
  14. Bring it on we can't waste any more time getting LM to swimming temperatures
