Indystorm

Glad to hear you are improving, Hoosier. Like my old high school Latin teacher would say, "Make haste slowly." Looks like you have a t storm in your area this Sat. evening.

It has been rather dry around here recently. My neighbor was even watering his lawn yesterday evening.

Garden variety t storm here this evening. Little wind but colorful lightning display.

Sorry to learn of your accident, Hoosier and hope you get well soon. I was at Highland with relatives July 3 until I came back Sat. July 6th and just saw your post. Meanwhile, you don't see something like this very often from the NHC so I thought I would post it.

And with the initial complex I thought it was interesting that Clinton and Boone counties in Indiana were svr warned because of a pronounced gust front moving from west to east across those counties without any actual storm.

Storms were heavily outflow dominated, but might have been a spin up.

It's certainly a weird V shaped MCS aiming for west central IN at the moment.

Possible watch coming for central and sw IN per SPC meso discussion. Just look at the radar as well.

Wind shear and helicity are much stronger back with that second line, although I wonder how it will perform if it moves over areas already worked over by the first MCS. It certainly bears watching, especially if recovery occurs.

Yes, 80 mph warnings with the storms moving into nw IN.

91/73 at IND right now. 100 heat index.
