hawkeye_wx Posted July 10 Share Posted July 10 Models are pretty bullish for northern Illinois tonight. Training storms could produce some big rain totals. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Torchageddon Posted July 10 Share Posted July 10 1-2" was forecast yesterday, all the storms and rain formed to my N and NE but very close. We didn't get anything! Another huge bust I was under a 80% chance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cyclone77 Posted July 10 Share Posted July 10 Morning storms died to the west over Iowa, and this afternoon they're blowing up just east. Gotta love it. Hope we can cash in on the leftover Iowa activity later tonight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

luckyweather Posted July 10 Share Posted July 10 Got about 1.5" in an hour west of Harvard. Still backbuilding to the west, might end up with around 2". Some of the gusts just now flattened some of the surrounding corn to the degree there's definitely going to be some yield issues. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cyclone77 Posted July 11 Share Posted July 11 0.00" from the evening round. Hopefully the late night activity holds together. EDIT: Picked up 0.12" 1-3" fell 10 miles north, and now just to the south is getting hammered. QC under FF warning. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All I can hope for is wetter soil upstream so dewpoints get higher. Tiny baby steps. It’s getting real tiring relying on scattered convection maybe popping up overhead. Don’t know when if ever a mature MCS survives up here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Finally got that summertime MCS, 1.35” of needed rain and going to bed with lightning flashes in the windows. Been too long 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sbnwx85 Posted July 11 Share Posted July 11 We got a real loud storm at about 3 am. It dropped under a half inch of rain. We’ll see how much the remnants from Chicagoland bring. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cyclone77 Posted July 11 Share Posted July 11 The late night Iowa action crapped out. Final total 0.27". One more shot at it later today, hope better luck this time. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hawkeye_wx Posted July 11 Share Posted July 11 The heavier cells have missed me so far. I got a few tenths yesterday and a few tenths early this morning. The storms later today could fire over me or mostly south and east. Some good sunshine would help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jwalsh1 Posted July 11 Share Posted July 11 IMBY we picked up 1.73" through the day yesterday with around 1.25" of it falling last night. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian D Posted July 11 Share Posted July 11 Early data in for June. Above normal driven by the heat across the southern half of the sub. Snow season ended with June. Another very warm one in books driven mostly by 2024 data. 5 & 10 yr trend charts shown respectively. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cyclone77 Posted July 12 Share Posted July 12 Up to 1.83" for the day. Best soaker of the year so far. Combined with yesterday's 0.27" brings us up over 2 inches for the 2-day. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian D Posted July 12 Share Posted July 12 Showers moved thru this morning. Parade in TH today for our annual Heritage Days festival. Air quality alerts out for the Upper Midwest as heavier smoke works it's way in behind the front. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KeenerWx Posted July 12 Share Posted July 12 On the flip side, over here we can't seem to squeeze out any precipitation lately. Rather brown & crunchy; doesn't look like any strong chances of relief in the short-term. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
