The gust front was insane. We were golfing by the lake yesterday and we’re approaching the green on 9. RadarScope showed the storms were roughly 10 miles out and looking to the west it looked like God took a massive leaf blower to the bunkers! We were putting easily in gale force winds and had to keep our sunglasses on due to the amount of dust. Coming back home you could visibly see the dust cloud to the east, just an insane amount of wind ahead of the line. Reminded me quite a bit of when sea breeze thunderstorms would hit in South Carolina, whenever you have those 90°/70°+ days it seems the outflow is amplified to the max. It flipped on a dime though, we had perfect conditions on 8

Bad day for the IWX radar to be down

That wind and heat dried things out pretty well in the afternoon relatively from that early morning due of 77°

Currently 90°/77° at my house. I haven’t seen these readings since moving back from living down South. Impressed

Looks like Toledo is going to graze 100° on Wednesday and Thursday

Of THE super outbreak

What a strange year. Feels like I moved to Traverse City, MI or something

Bingo. Without the MCS we probably have a Palm Sunday level outbreak

Bingo. Looks like a complete bust in all honesty, the whole area of clearing is already filling in with convection. I’ve seen the subway less packed than IL/MO

Possibly. HRRR if you go with it would be essentially a moderate cancel. I’d downgrade if I were the SPC at this time

Between this and the lakes that warm front is definitely getting shunted to the south

Wouldn’t be shocked if crapvection & the lakes hold this thing south. Not only that but with so much forcing storm crowding may also put a lid on tomorrow. Pretty pessimistic despite insane numbers

Nice tornado approaching Ft Wayne

One thing to notice, dews are surging ahead of the line as the LLJ kicks in. Up to 72° in Ft Wayne right now. Going to be a dicey night for sure

That newer to cell to the south looks ready to drop the next big one

If I’m not mistaken the forecast models were showing ample LLJ strengthening this evening

That’s a big tornado as well in a not great radar position. Probably a monster in there

I’m shocked the forum isn’t buzzing more. That MCS is essentially a Cat 1 hurricane running thru Wisconsin right now

Decent blow through today while golfing. While we’ve had quite a few severe storms this season, nothing really that bad has whacked us yet.

Had a nice shelf cloud and wind from that line. Tomorrow looks to be far of a day from a severe standpoint. I wouldn’t sleep on the tornado threat in this area either tomorrow

Really rooting for severe weather around 4 PM on Tuesday. Golf league in 40 mph winds is less than ideal

Amazing there’s no fatalities with a cell that violent. It really was a perfect confluence of ingredients; high SRH, an increasing LLJ, ample space from other storms and plenty of instability.

Out of our sub but that’s an absolute beast of a tornado right now in Mississippi. Definitely EF3-EF4

Just so much crowding with these storms today. I think they get too hyped on ingredients anymore, sure the SRH was great but they gotta have room to breathe
