A-L-E-K Posted May 21, 2013 Share Posted May 21, 2013 Loss of daytime heating probably isn't helping the cause either. yeah for the time being it's being more than compensated by increasing dews, it's just a matter of how much we can recover...temps will hang around 80 for a while.

IMADreamer Posted May 21, 2013 Share Posted May 21, 2013 Whew what an interesting last few hours. Hannibal, Mo is right across the river from my families farm. They went to the storm cellar for that one. My Dad said it was "one hell of a storm." No damage to report on the farm though thankfully. Here in Pittsfield we got some very heavy rain, and I'd guess 30-40mph winds. I see some small branches down but nothing significant. We did lose power for a few minutes though.

CHI_Weather Posted May 21, 2013 Share Posted May 21, 2013 It looks like the strongest storms in and around the Chicago area would produce half dollar size hail, wind gust over 60mph, cloud to ground lightning, and heavy rain. I have my windows open, nice breeze and the winds have picked up in the last ten minutes, it also feels somewhat colder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
