Tim from Springfield (IL) Posted July 23, 2017 Share Posted July 23, 2017 Take it FWIW but based on current NOAA projections, this LiveScience article hints at the likelihood of a warmer-than-normal August, including here in the sub. And equal chances of above or below normal precip. https://www.livescience.com/59886-weather-forecast-summer-fall-2017.html?utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=feed&utm_campaign=Feed%3A+Livesciencecom+(LiveScience.com+Science+Headline+Feed) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
michsnowfreak Posted July 23, 2017 Share Posted July 23, 2017 CFS is going cooler than normal for August. Will be interesting to see what CFS shows July 29-31, its most accurate range for the following month. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hawkeye_wx Posted July 30, 2017 Share Posted July 30, 2017 GFS and Euro are spinning up a nice fall-like storm over the upper midwest later this week. On Friday, the euro has temps here in the 60s with a strong nw wind. It's still a bit early for that kind of stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd say about the western 1/2 to 2/3 of the current marginal risk may have slightly better odds, which is not good for you guys farther east.

Atmospheric conditions are favorable for the development of isolated funnel clouds associated with widely scattered thunderstorms expected through the afternoon. These funnel clouds normally only protrude a few hundred feet downward from the parent cloud, rotate or spin like a top, and last a few minutes before dissipating. These funnel clouds rarely touch the ground and typically do not pose any sort of hazard. The atmospheric conditions that these funnel clouds develop in do not support strong, damaging tornadoes. However, on extremely rare occasions, these funnels can briefly touch the ground and produce very minimal, if any, damage. If threatening weather approaches, move indoors to a place of safety. The National Weather Service will continue to closely monitor the situation. $$ RC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Powerball Posted August 2, 2017 Share Posted August 2, 2017 I'm in Oklahoma today, so there's no doubt in my mind that the Detroit area will get a decent round of convection later today since I'm not around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stebo Posted August 2, 2017 Share Posted August 2, 2017 Pretty good rotation on the cell over Lake St Clair moving toward Ontario going to pass between Wallaceburg and Chatham unless it right turns a touch then it could head toward Chatham.

Spoke too soon, ended up with a decent storm here .26, though on the east side we got slammed over an inch of rain which we needed every drop.

It looks like the line of storms went severe as it blew through michsnowfreak's area. There was also a report of downed tree limbs on Belle Isle. The outflow boundary seemed impressive on radar.

Geoboy645 Posted August 3, 2017 Share Posted August 3, 2017 Had a strong lake breeze come through Southern Wisconsin today. It's currently all the way by the Baraboo bluffs,which is about 100-110 miles from Lake Michigan. Pretty impressive if I do say so myself. Did kick up a couple of popups that died as soon as the boundary left the area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

michsnowfreak Posted August 3, 2017 Share Posted August 3, 2017 Quite a thunderstorm hit around 545pm. Havent had a summer storm like that in Wyandotte in years. Cant remember when Ive seen so much hail in one storm. Marble sized, so not big, but plentiful. Lots of leaves knocked down from the hailstones but minimal tree damage. Lots of tree damage just to my south. The storm dropped 1.78" imby in less than an hour, which is more than fell in total from May 30-July 6!
