  1. We had our September in August, so now we're getting our August I guess. Needless to say I'm looking forward to October. Picked up 0.02" early this morning. Looks like 1-2" of rain possible tomorrow through Sunday.
  2. Was a pretty noisy late night/early morning with lots of thunderstorms passing through the area. Picked up 0.81". The yard is lush green, and rapidly growing like it did back in May/June. A far cry from the state it was in most of July and early August.
  3. Latest Euro shows 65+ dews returning tomorrow and lasting through at least the next 10 days. I'm ready for that kind of humidity to be over, unless associated with meaningful severe possibilities.
  4. Picked up 1.30" last evening/early this morning. Lost power for a few hours after midnight.
  5. Thundering here with a very heavy overcast. Looks like most of the storms will stay just north though. Picked up 0.56" early yesterday morning.
  6. Picked up 0.27" early this morning. Had one really loud crash of thunder that broke up any plaque trying to build up in my arteries lol. Scared the crap out of me.
  7. Hard to believe met summer is already toast. I'm ready for some dynamic fall and winter systems. Chance for some storms tomorrow but it looks like the DVN cwa will mostly get the shaft again with severe prospects.
  8. Surprised SPC didn't issue a 2% tor threat from IL to parts of OH. These remnant circulations have a tendency to overachieve with lots of remnant vorticity. As Hoosier mentioned wind profiles aren't all that impressive, but they look good enough for the potential to see several tors this afternoon/early eve.
  9. Had a few minutes worth of 45-50mph winds with the gust front. Shelf cloud associated with that looked pretty sweet.
  10. Yeah it's been interesting watching it stall out, and has started to retreat back northeast a bit. 76mph reported at the Dubuque ASOS.
  11. That new line rolling into the tri-state area of IA/WI/IL means business. Quite a few wind damage reports have been rolling in, and now there's even a tor warning southwest of Dubuque. SPC meso page has been showing steep mid-level lapse rates feeding in from the west, and helping to very quickly rebuild any instability lost from the earlier MCS. Could get interesting down this was in the next hour or so.
  12. Yeah was puzzled that they weren't anticipating a new watch. The MCS is maintaining, and is only moving into a more favorable environment.
  13. East Iowa and north IL remaining idle, just as CAMS have been showing for days. We don't need the rain anyway so it's all good.
  14. Pretty sweet vid. Around the 55 sec mark you can see a large chunk of tree floating in the air, and eventually crashes around the 1:02 mark. Around the 1:04 mark you can see a tree get uprooted on the right side of the vid, just after that large piece of tree lands.
  15. Brought to you by Broyles. Needless to say, let's see what subsequent outlooks show by other forecasters.
  16. Just west of Cedar Rapids at Atkins. 0654 PM TSTM WND GST ATKINS 42.00N 91.86W 06/15/2019 E70 MPH BENTON IA FIRE DEPT/RESCUE SUSTAINED 50-55 MPH, RELAYED BY EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT.
  17. The supercell out ahead of the main line, north of Burlington IA looks like it wants to put down a tor.
  18. Looks like there was a stretch of 70-80mph winds just south of us last night. Several very large trees were uprooted, or snapped off along route 92 between Joslin and Hooppole.
  19. That storm delivered a torrential downpour here with a tremendous display of lightning, and close thunder. Had some pretty strong southeasterly gusts during the height of it. There's definitely a meso vortex associated with this. Just under an inch from this storm alone so far.
  20. Numerous 1" hail reports coming out of the IL QCA the past hour or so. We were under a warning for those storms but they are quickly crapping the bed, warning cancelled. Did give us a nice light show in the western/southwestern sky the past hour or so.
  21. Very nice! That was a very photogenic tor. And lol @ the Amish chaser at the 9min mark in the vid.
  22. Some nice towers started going up a little east of here, so I jumped in the vehicle and went after them hoping they'd go. Ended up being a waste of time, as they crapped the bed pretty quickly.
