Geez, Bassfield in a bad spo

Nothing but a brief shower and some thunder from the storm to the south. Sounded like a fun one.

Niece is in Auburn and said they have .5-.75" hail.

A bit of a surprise, hopefully can get something a bit north of it

Wind just got here, probably 45mph currently

Wasn't too far off, 50MPH fromnthe NW, so the second gust from the south after it passed wasn't the strongest of the 2.

KILX radar looks like it got took out by hail

Probably wind, they were in that 80mph wind warning

Sun is back out, back to reality for me

Hit a Record High 87 degrees today.

First storm to my north messed my chance up, IlX hasn't even updated the warning I'm under. Ah well, getting some much needed rain for the morel mushrooms.

Not sure how accurate this is on Radarscope

Depending on what this next warned cell does, not expecting much, curious to see whether the airport recors a stonger gust from northerly or southerly direction. I almost thing the southerly was stronger. They're about 6 miles SW of me though so may not have had same winds.

New warning now

About all I got, one good gust  from NNW then another good one from the South. Now probably 20-25 degree temp drop and only sprinkles

Might have to head inside, winds coming from the south now, guessing inflow? Heard neighbors tree crack from a gust and I'm under a small car port like feature onnthe garage under it

Wind just got here, probably 45mph currently

New wsrning for PingPong ball hail

Going to skirt just north of me unless it right turns. 70+dbz

Dead calm here as the thunder rumbles, being missed to the north currently. 

Need something to build between the two warnings closest to me

Surprised watch isn't out yet.

Hatched hail was the only categorical risk extended with it

The only real change was extending the enhanced area NW in IL

This wannabe squall can't even muster up enough to maintain convectiveness

Waiting for the watch to be canceled here, glad I was telling friends and family all throughout todays prolonged rain and clouds not to be surprised if things do not play out as being forecast.

Not that I am complainging things went how they did, not what anyone needs right now, i just love a good  thunderstorm.

Seems more times than not when we don't have crapvection to deal with we either get capped, an outflow triggers a storm well before the forcing was forecast stabilizing things or just as today unfolded, things just linger well into the late morning early afternoon with no time to recover.

Luckily it's only March, still plenty of Spring left(all of it )
