Indystorm

Tornado watch now issued for southern MN and extreme northern IA for this Thursday evening. This might develop into the MCS that will move east/se overnight.

ACCAS clouds now building in se S.D. and sw MN with a tor warning in the area. Could be the start of another complex for overnight this Thursday into Friday?

Had a good heavy shower here thanks to remnants of Barry. It is interesting to see the banding of the rain showers on the IND radar which is typical of tropical systems.

Thanks. With the recent Manhattan outage it really does make me worry about the status of our infrastructure in many areas of concern.

Looks like SPC is just expecting some downbursts and heavy rain with little shear for anticipated spin ups for Indiana.

We'll see what happens in the next update. As IWX mentioned Mike Ryan at IND is aware of the situation. Good chunk of se IN from Evansville to Ft. Wayne in marginal risk with cells starting to pop in the PAH area moving ne. 78/71 here just before noon with south wind at 16 gusting to 23. Intermittent sun and clouds.

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.

Trees down in Pell Lake Wisconsin on the border with Illinois se of Lake Geneva. Widespread wind damage reported across southern WI.

And I'm wondering if SPC is leaning heavily upon it because they don't currently anticipate a new watch to the se. I would be watching the instability gradient.

Like Sunday night this is more active than I originally anticipated for today even though we do have benefit of a svr storm watch for northern IN this go round.
