Hoosier Posted June 12, 2013 Author Share Posted June 12, 2013 Cells should be encountering lake breeze before too long here....we'll see if it tightens up this HP junk. That's what I'm waiting to see. Could enhance the tor threat along/immediately behind the boundary and then maybe lessen again as storms get further into cooler air.

Could enhance the tor threat along/immediately behind the boundary and then maybe lessen again as storms get further into cooler air. feeling incredibly stable out here now with temps dropping into the low 60s, so i think any threat is going to have to come from a well organized MCS later this evening.

Chinook Posted June 12, 2013 Share Posted June 12, 2013 Looks like rotation is still pretty strong near Paw Paw, IL. VIL and hail size indicators are still pretty impressive in the FFD (hail core) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SchaumburgStormer Posted June 12, 2013 Share Posted June 12, 2013 Correct me if I am wrong, but these storms are the appetizer? Main course to be when those cells in Iowa, WI merge into a line? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CHI_Weather Posted June 12, 2013 Share Posted June 12, 2013 S^%$ This looks very serious for Chicago. It's pretty far West right now with two tornado warnings. Could be a mess by Aurora. I'm trying to analyze IF Chicago can get hit by a tornado, to no evail. Radar takes it either South of us or far West of us. Any ideas guys? Also has a tornado actually been spotted by Aurora? I'm guessing it's rain wrapped. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geos Posted June 12, 2013 Share Posted June 12, 2013 Correct me if I am wrong, but these storms are the appetizer? Main course to be when those cells in Iowa, WI merge into a line? That's a wild looking line isn't it! Snakes it's way in a SIN type curve. The storm by DeKalb is nasty looking. How's it looking down there?

I'm guessing it's rain wrapped. Chicago itself is in a very different environment right now thanks to the marine boundary pushing through. I don't think they'll be much tornado threat with these initial cells at the least. Could still be wind/hail producers and obviously a rush hour problem.

cyclone77 Posted June 12, 2013 Share Posted June 12, 2013 Was pretty worried about the QC and this area earlier, but the storms fired off to the east and north. Was stuck at work till 4, so timing screwed me again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
