March 10th, 2026 Severe Threat

How much further north will the warm front nudge? Still about 36-48 hours to see but looking like our first crack at some true severe for Central and N IL. Also storm initiation a slight question with the latest 00z models, specifically NAM3km.

Those north of the front may still not want to not park their cars outside with the higher risk for large hail with elevated storms.

Warm front will ride along I-80 as they always seem to do this time of the year.

Blame Lake Michigan for that.

Though the Euro still has it getting up to the state line with Chicago tagging another 70 degree day. AI GFS is also further north with the warm front. Of course the back door front comes barreling through at some point in the day.

Locked back in I love slab daddy season.  Good luck to the affected areas

Disregard nam. As usual it's way too cool with the sfc temps. Why it doesn't look good for storms. Not enough to break cap. It isn't going to be as cool as it shows.

Looking forward to the possibility of some spicy booms.
