I’ve been so bored during this amazing weather. The boomers right now are making me feel good feelings. Imma just chill and enjoy the show. Great light show with c2c and thunder. Chill.

I just want something to happen I’m sooo bored! Someone tell me a blizzard is coming next week!!

Severe thunderstorm warning forMcHenry and Lake Counties. Been a long time since one was issued in the area.

More gentile rolling thunder and light rain making my evening. Very peaceful. Perfect Saturday evening to lounge in the screen porch with a book and a beer (or 4) just listening to the rain and thunder. The remaining hummingbirds have been fueling up at my feeder for their journey south. The lake has some decent waves today too (beach hazard statement just expired) after being pretty quiet lately. Great wx day today and my boredom is cured now.

Managed to get a pretty decent little boomer out here last night. Tiny cell that just happed to go right over me at the right time. Was an absolute downpour for about 10 minutes and some decent c2c lightning with great rolling thunder. That should keep my bitching suppressed for a few days. A nice surprise and a good watering for the grass and plants. I am happy (for now).

I’ll try to stop bitching this wx has been nice lol I’m being a big baby right now

Looks like some changes coming, which I’m happy about. I like the Midwest for the frequently changing weather patterns. Anything to end my boredom at this point. It’s been absolutely perfect and gorgeous weather and yet somehow I’m still unsatisfied. I did not choose to be this way.

Hell yeah somethings happening!

This pattern reminds me of living in San Diego. Blessed the weather has been so perfect and comfortable, but damn it I’m getting bored with the lack of variety too lol

This board about to be quiet AF let’s just all accept it and enjoy the nice wx lol

I mean that’s a good thing.

Did this life threatening situation materialize?

Had hail damage in may and got wind damage today. Tore off a couple panels of my siding, although admittedly they were probably weakened already and this was just the final straw. Wasn’t home when it happened so can’t give any estimated wind speeds. Glad I’m a renter this year but still a pain in the butt. Definitely was not expecting that today especially since we were never warmed for anything. Been a fantastic light show over the lake tonight.

I know STL isn’t discussed much here but they just got rocked.

People in Milwaukee parking garages having a bad time: https://streamable.com/nc8u50?src=player-page-share

Holy shit! I was driving back to Kenosha from Milwaukee during the tail end of it. Accidents everywhere along 94 from downtown and south. In a 15mi stretch I must have seen 10 accidents if not more. Lanes suddenly blocked with impassible standing water, underpasses flooded (passible but had to idle through), cars spun out and blacked out in the middle of the highway, visibility was absolute garbage… that was a sketchy drive and I definitely shouldn’t have been out there, but as a weather nerd it was still pretty cool to see. Didn’t look like any of the accidents were too serious but none of them had emergency crews on scene yet, so there were just random cars sitting in the middle of the road or crashed against the barriers. The CG was very impressive as well. Glad to be home safely in my bed.

Currently in Litchfield, IL. It’s really, really bad. :/

I thought it was cuz I keep my AC below 70 and drive a car to work. Phew!

Had some surprisingly cool looking mammatus pass over Mundelein about 30min ago well north of the line. Wouid have gotten a picture but I was soaking in the pool.

Slight risk added for Chicago metro today? Didn’t really see that one coming.

Only made it to 74 next to the lake today. Absolutely perfect and felt so refreshing. Not sure what to really make of tomorrow but hoping to at least have a rumbler roll on by.

Near Northbrook. Pretty impressive looking for an otherwise mediocre storm. This was taken by a friend. Obligatory don’t use your phone when driving but thought it was cool enough to share anyway.

Wow I needed this laugh today. Forum gold right here someone archive plz

Absolute insanity. Those poor people…

Somerset had 3 tornado warnings in about 90min. Two after the initial tornado went through and at least the first and second one were a PDS warnings. Can’t imagine the trauma people there went through.
