Indystorm Posted July 28 Share Posted July 28 Had an amazing electrical storm at 5 a.m. today and there were a lot of limbs and branches down on the east side of Griffith especially. This includes a large 1 to 2 foot diameter tree trunk near the Wadsworth Elementary school just south of me. Waiting to see what will happen with this power keg tonight. 700mb still around 12 per SPC meso so gotta cool a bit first. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hawkeye_wx Posted July 28 Share Posted July 28 The HRRR and RRFS models have been iffy with convection here later. However, both models continue to quickly mix the dew point down into the 60s across the area this afternoon, which is very wrong. Dews are well into the 70s to near 80 across Iowa.
