CheeselandSkies Posted June 26, 2018 Share Posted June 26, 2018 Second tornado reported, actually occurred earlier but report came in later. In Grant County, confirmed by video according to LSR. Also unwarned. MKX (although this second report was in ARX's CWA) has been the king of false alarm tornado warnings in marginal situations. Of course the year they decide to stop doing it is when the storms actually produce. Always something in 2018. The fact that these teeny thundershowers are producing brief spin-ups shows that the low-level shear is there, but they couldn't have held off 3-4 more hours for some heating to take place ahead of them?

CoalCityWxMan Posted June 26, 2018 Share Posted June 26, 2018 86/75 here with full sun at the moment, so that’s obviously a good sign as far as destabilization goes, didn’t expect to see much sun today Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jojo762 Posted June 26, 2018 Share Posted June 26, 2018 What a marvelous collapse of yet another (what appeared to be) solid setup in the D3-5 range.

Hoosier Posted June 26, 2018 Share Posted June 26, 2018 LOT had this to say .MESOSCALE DISCUSSION... 317 PM CDT Couple rounds of convection still on track late this afternoon into the evening. As of 300 PM CST, upper low is noted on water vapor imagery centered near DBQ while axis of greatest height falls is beginning to overspread northern Illinois which has helped to kick off scattered thunderstorms early this afternoon. At the surface, broad and ill-defined warm front stretches from near DBQ through DKB towards RZL in northwest Indiana. Within this corridor, dew points have pooled into the low 70s and flow becomes slightly backed with northward extent. Dew points combined with temperatures in the low 80s is contributing to moderate instability with MLCAPE in the 1000- 1500 range per recent RAP analysis. Additional modest destabilization is expected as we continue to thin some of the cloud cover that has been in place much of the day. Increasing forcing for ascent and instability will continue to support thunderstorm development over the next several hours. Shear appears to be a limiting factor with respect to a more organized severe threat today. Mid level flow has been slightly weaker than anticipated. Special 17Z raob from DVN indicated only 34kt of flow at 500mb and deep unidirectional flow is resulting in 0-6km shear of only 25kt. Lower level shear is a little better, though still not impressive. 0-1km SRH does approach 100 m2/s2 near the low track and within the frontal zone over far north central Illinois, though values quickly drop off farther southeast. A couple storms so far today have shown weak rotation and supercellular characteristics, so not completely out of the woods despite the limiting factors. Any supercell storms that are able to tap into the better low level helicity may be able to produce a tornado. Deubelbeiss Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CheeselandSkies Posted June 26, 2018 Share Posted June 26, 2018 Tube near Argyle was actually rather pretty per video. I never saw much if any clearing make it into WI ahead of those little cells on visible so not sure what they found that they liked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
