Return of the mysterious eastern poster from several years ago who posted the cryptic winter predictions. Something Dog was not?

Big winter coming

Lots of natural signs, squirrels gathering nuts, birds gathering in flocks, IHSA moving football to February and March ...

guys, this is making me uncomfortable. can we go back to pretending that our president isn't an insane narcissist?

I wasn’t a fan of W, voted for Obama twice. What we have now make both of them look tremendous.

So, does anybody still believe that the NWS/NOAA would never ever let politics dictate a weather statement, as was being professed on this board a few days ago?

To be clear, I didn't think so then... But now? It's just f'n pathetic.

Again NO for the nws. The higher up appointees. Those who must kiss the ring yes, at least in the current banana republic. Under a normal president of any party no.

No. Just further proof of incompetence.

Between the flooding out in the plains for the cattle farmers, and the flooding in the Midwest for crop farmers, a wetter than normal June will be a  disaster. 

Local farmers had a meeting yesterday pertaining to crop insurance, if crops aren’t in the ground by the 5th, the insurance is voided. 

Heard a rumor some farmers are opting even planting and just taking an insurance check. It’s bad guys. 

That’s not quit right. June 5 is the late planting date for most of illinois. After that date you lose 3% a day of coverage. They can take prevent plant after the fifth. Soy beans late planting date is June 20.

Doesn’t seem like the damage is that bad in Dayton.

As is heard after every night time storm. 

I am guessing something on or right in front of radar. Still there now

This is showing up on radar currently. 

I would think the 12z gfs is looking pretty concerning for flood issues across Iowa, Minnesota and Wisconsin. Pushes the rain snow line north toward Canada with a wrapped up cutter. Lots could change, but that does look great for next Wednesday. 

Pattern sure looks ripe for flooding, if snow pack continues to build north and active pattern continues could be a long spring for river interests throughout the Midwest. 

Quit a bit of damage reports rolling in from Benton and DuQuoin IL
