    I'm really looking forward to the extended warm period. I just hope we don't flip and go into the freezer later in the month.

    SPC has removed the moderate risk area in our sub. It's looking like a bust for much of southeast Iowa, including Cedar Rapids/Iowa City. We weren't even able to get out of the 50s as the warm front stalled well south.

    Peoria is about to get some nasty hail.
  4. hawkeye_wx
    There's a nasty storm southeast of Des Moines, all by itself, along the warm front, that is looking increasingly hooky. Update: It is now tornado-warned. The latest radar image suggests a possible debris ball.

    There's no sign of anything going up in between the central Iowa storms and the northeast Missouri storms. Models have, generally, not been very bullish for my area.

    He's back. Earlier this morning he posted he works today til 4pm and then may chase.

    I just realized the core of this powerful storm is hitting Cyclone's house as I type. He's probably getting golfball to baseball size hail right now. He may be at work, though. I hope he doesn't get too much damage.

    90 mph wind gust at the Quad Cities airport!

    3.00" hail in Davenport, 80 mph wind in Moline... pretty impressive for 10am.
  10. hawkeye_wx
    Now 2.50" hail is being reported in Davenport. Yikes.
  11. hawkeye_wx
    2" diameter hail is being reported in the Muscatine to Davenport corridor.

    1.50" hail report from Cedar Rapids. I got lucky. Update: Now a 1.75" (golfball) report from Marion (ne edge of Cedar Rapids)
  13. hawkeye_wx
    The hail core passed barely southeast of my house, so I only got pea size (maybe a few a bit larger).

    An elevated hailer is approaching Cedar Rapids this morning, currently warned for 1" hail.

    Models have been flirting with an upper low digging down into the Ohio Valley next week, keeping our region a bit cool, but the GFS has lost that idea and the Euro is trending away from it. Tonight's GFS and Euro are blowtorching the plains in the extended, with a bit of summer attempting to spread east across the midwest.

    It was a C here... better than Cyclone's winter, but still well south of the prevailing snowstorm track.
  17. hawkeye_wx
    There might be a spin-up along the line just south of Cyclone. Cyclone is getting hit hard by heavy rain, hail, and wind.

    69 mph wind gust at the Cedar Rapids airport, 70 mph in Hiawatha. I could hear the roaring wind coming. The line was weakening as it moved through, but we still managed to get about a 60 mph gust. That's it for me today. Most of the action went around me.

    The tornado signature is back on the cell that passed nw of Iowa City. It's approaching Mt. Vernon, east of Cedar Rapids.
  20. hawkeye_wx
    The tornadic cell near Iowa City has inhaled the trailing storm, so the great-looking structure is fading.
  21. hawkeye_wx
    Another severe storm has surged northeast and has nearly caught the tornadic cell in Iowa.
  22. hawkeye_wx
    Iowa City is up next for the Iowa tornado. It currently looks like all the cells will pass southeast and northwest of Cedar Rapids.
  23. hawkeye_wx
    Ottumwa is under the gun from a rotating supercell.
  24. hawkeye_wx
    DVN is most concerned with the lead wave tracking from south of KC to northern Illinois.
  25. hawkeye_wx
    Hmmm..... The HRRR has mid 70s and storms forming east of Cedar Rapids. The 3k NAM has low 60s and storms forming near Des Moines.
