  1. Nice clump of MCV convection slowly swirling this way. Putting down quite a bit of rain along it's swath out over Iowa. EDIT: Jinxed it. It's on the decline now on approach lol EDIT2: Had a period of gentle anvil rain. Picked up 0.14". Good chance the late night stuff hits us good though with some heavy rainfall potential then.
  2. Getting some consolation showers. Picked up 0.13".
  3. lol, maybe the 2020 derecho as well. We really don't need the rain anyway (over 4" for July), so it's all good.
  4. The Iowa stuff is crapping the bed. The new stuff should fire off to the east/south later today. Looking like a skip-over for this area with this one.
  5. First 80 degree dew of the year in the bag here.
  6. We're gonna put together a pretty impressive streak of daily 70+ dews. May make a run at a 2 week streak. Also will be some 80+ days mixed in as well. Signs we may see some relief around the 31st when we finally get a blast of drier air.
  7. Picked up 0.39" early this morning. Now up to 4.12" for July. MLI and DVN are both over 5.5" now.
  8. Picked up 0.49" of anvil rain. Not bad for zero downpour activity.
  9. The once robust Iowa convection sensed the MS River and hence began to crap out. Getting some nice anvil rain, with some long/low rumbles of thunder.
  10. Ahh, today's the 14th anniversary of this beauty from DVN's disco. SHORT WAVE COMBINED WITH FRONTAL BOUNDARY AND HIGH CAPES SUGGEST POTENTIAL FOR EXPLOSIVE DEVELOPMENT OF THUNDERSTORMS IF CAP BREAKS. IF THIS SCENARIO PANS OUT THEN A DESTRUCTIVE DERECHO WITH WINDS OVER 100 MPH IS CERTAINLY POSSIBLE. CORFIDI VECTORS WOULD TAKE THE THUNDERSTORMS SOUTHEAST ACROSS MUCH OF THE DVN CWA
  11. Only 74 for today's high. Dews much lower than what they've been, but still in the 60-65 degree range.
  12. Ahh that sucks! Saw the radar/reports when I got off work and was thinking you probably scored today.
  13. Had a cell pop up a few miles southwest and dropped a quick 0.32" here on it's way to developing into the severe line that impacted Chicago.
  14. Unless stuff kicks off somewhat early we may be a bit too far west for this one. Gonna be close.
  15. Adapting to the higher dews. Low 70s all day and didn't really feel that bad, even with zero wind.
  16. Still looking this way. We have a shot at 4-5 days in a row with 80-84 degree dews starting on Monday. Going to be very oppressive. On Friday we get a little respite with dews down in the 60s before back into the 70s on Sat. Here we go.
  17. Wow those are some low dews for July. Looking like a break from the 70 degree dews here for tomorrow. Looks like dews should mix down to near 60 in the afternoon, which is great for the corn belt in mid July. Looking further ahead 80 degree dews are coming the week after next from the looks of things.
  18. Up to 1.83" for the day. Best soaker of the year so far. Combined with yesterday's 0.27" brings us up over 2 inches for the 2-day.
  19. Pretty sweet comma head action up that way. Up to 1.10" here. Some big positive stroke crashes of thunder behind the main line shaking the house.
  20. Flash flood emergency declared for Davenport/Bettendorf. Sounds pretty bad there. They got smoked there last night too. Picked up a quick 0.55" in a 5 min torrential downpour here.
  21. Nice blast of 55mph winds from the outflow. Storm already undercut here, so nader threat already nil.
  22. Can hear sirens in the distance. Getting the popcorn ready.
  23. Dews above 75 this afternoon. Feels pretty swampy out there.
  24. The late night Iowa action crapped out. Final total 0.27". One more shot at it later today, hope better luck this time.
