Disagree.

hope your right. Todays derecho line looks similar as far as time of day and size to one a few years ago that hit the central counties. Came on a day where severe weather wasn't expected and the line was racing east about 70-80 MPH. Can't find a link on it for SE MI and it occured I believe in 2008. Think it hit chicago before becomming more intense.

Didn't evaporate like you suggested, so just fine. Still a line of storms moving through.

Nope, nowhere in my post did I say anything about evaporating, I said weaken, which it did and is still doing.

Depends.

The instability/moisture axis is still off to the west (Northern Illinois into Indiana and SE), and the WRF-NMM weakens the storms as they cross Michigan (just a few rain showers and some debris). I'm thinking they're going to evolve similar to what the WRF-NMM shows, but I could be wrong (though there's nothing to suggest otherwise).

We would need some rapid destabilization/moisture advection to take place this way in order for them to hold, but it's pretty much a race for time with the speed these storms are moving.

Either way, the storms probably won't weaken fast enough to not disrupt any chance for development later.

Actually the way the line is evolving isn't too dissimilar from what the 00z WRF-NMM showed. Its biggest vice is that it was too slow.

Completely different setup.

If you're talking about that event in April 2008, for starters we had full sunshine ahead of it (no MCS or debris ahead of it) and a very intense MCV to hold the line together.

Why don't we wait until both lines are through before we go through this.
