    Have fun. Not sure if anything is going to happen here . I going to get some sleep since nothing is firing to my NW.

    Near continuous flash coming from that cell now to my east. Charlie Brown doesn't hold a candle stick to me with bad luck

    The cell developed just to my east. Saw one flash from it. Hopefully it will continue to develop north and west.

    Keeps showing it triggering in Wisconsin. This is where I am struggling to buy into it. We'll see in the next few hours what actually triggers.

    Been watching the clouds starting to form right overhead as they are feeding into that complex. To my west was mostly clear and to my east mostly cloudy the past few hours.

    Interesting. Can't say I trust it. But might be driving to the best instability???

    They were originally expecting more storms over SE MI than what occurred. Most of SC/SE MI would have remained much cooler if the storms/clouds over Lake Erie/Huron were further west like was forecasted/modeled (by most models). The models that were furthest east were correct and these areas have remained mostly sunny and the push of warmth made if further east.

    Wow 2.75 at Selfridge:

    Couple times I was up there with graupel around Sept 28th. I don't think that will be the pattern this year but you never know in the UP

    Hey I nailed it => "find a way to get to Detroit (Wayne county)" Storms missed MBY by about 20 miles (or less actually). Oh well. Hopefully something fun happens the next couple days. Lots of potential at least.

    I got missed today by 20 miles to my east Good luck and enjoy!!

    Looking too far east for MBY but I am sure it will find a way to get to Detroit (Wayne county). It just get tiring that something always seems to go wrong when the models are blasting this area. Been in the UP a total of 12 days this summer and have had far better T-storms up there!!! Time to be Bo's neighbor!!

    Except no MCS developed as modeled. Pure Michigan!! Only took until 6AM for some storms to even develop in northern lower

    Light rain (currently <0.1") here and temp at 66 @ 2PM. Sounds like you got some good rains today!! Hoping for something fun here in the next couple days.

    My thought from driving around is the very cool nights (42F one of the nights I was there and it has been cooler previously). Lake shore areas I didn't notice much colors but the inland areas seemed to be where most of the colors are. That was my observations. Could likely just be a combination of all these factors

    Had a couple chilly but awesome nights in the low to mid40s while backpacking in the Porcupine Mtns last week (good sleeping bags = no problem with cooler temps). Saw several spectacular shooting stars!!! No northern light last week but wasn't expecting any. Thankfully no smoke until the day we left!!!

    I was backpacking in the Porcupine Mtns all last week, right on the Lake Superior shore. My tent was 100' off the shore when this hit. It was awesome to watch this come across LS and then jumped in the tent once it rain got heavy. Tons of streaks and wonderful loud thunders. Thankfully we did not get any overly strong/severe winds. Waves were awesome the next day 4-5'.

    Just had my best CG of the year for me. Today's little tstorm a few minutes ago put one about 300' off my deck. Striking the lake. More importantly I was looking right at it.

    Sunday night and Monday looks like a great chance for heavier rains. Corn and soy should be fine.
  21. Lightning
    We had a few around here it seems to have improved as it head south of me. Novi, Wixon and Farmington Hills looks like they got it good!!
  22. Lightning
    The past 30 minutes the flashes have increased quite a bit the red cell it nearly on top of me but it is all CC. No CG near me. No big thunders either. Still great to get a storm. Note: Not saying there isn't CG but it definitely wasn't on the north part of the storm.

    Looks like my hail mary pass worked . Funny thing is they keep doing these tornado warnings. Winds were actually stronger before the storms to be honest. The lightning is not really frequent as I have one close strike IMBY. Heaviest rains have been 2-10 miles to my north as the first hour we were not getting anything but now I am finally getting rain!! This is usually the best position for great lightning but like I said it's not been very frequent.

    Wow. Today is turning into an complete model failure. Several days of models showing 1-2" QPF with several rounds of big thunderstorms starting around 2PM. Currently the results are 0" of rain (I know a few areas to the south have gotten at least a little as AA to DTW seems to always at least get something). Radar right now has a few isolated shower/t-showers in GRR area. Hoping for the hail mary ending!!

    Had a quick thunderstorm this evening.
