4/13 - 4/14 Severe Threat

[sbnwx85]

Kinda getting that miss north feel but we’ll see.

SE of Madison around 6:30 just after the first cell went through. I’m not 100% certain if this was from today’s cell or an earlier storm as there was a notable lack of water on the road. 

[frostfern]

Garden variety precursor showers already had a ton of lightning.  Ready 2 get rocked by the main line in the next hour.

McHenrysnow and cary#s, this is your moment 

[sbnwx85]

Cap is holding pretty strong here. Expecting a gusty/flood threat overnight.

I'm mostly focused on the rain aspect. We're at 5.82" for the month and it looks like we'll get some really good training. If winds end up strong, I could see some trees coming down based off of how wet the ground is.

I believe this was the rope tornado in Iowa

[Chicago Storm]

first cap bust of the season around here.

hate to see it.

[Chinook]

I guess this is a confirmed QLCS tornado near Milwaukee

McHenry missed that storm.....but I didn't. We were driving back home from Kentucky (funeral) and experienced it parked on 31 after a powerline was snapped ahead of us. I was legit scared.

A minute of slightly larger than pea-sized pingers in DeKalb at the tail end of the line.

Tornado sirens here.  Whatever it is, the circulation passed over, maybe a hair south of me.  QLCS protrusion. Got a brief 60 mph gust.  Just heavy rain and a few peas now.

Kind of reminds me of the tornado that crossed I-96 near Weberville on Aug 24, 2023.  The bowing line segment swallowed a supercell that had formed out ahead, and it immediately produced a tornado.

Spoke too soon for the north side...

[Castaway]

Everything is training just north of me. Looks like a barrage. Nonstop lighting. Barely a drop here.
 

Best atmosphere to chill outside or take a walk 

[A-L-E-K]

Nice back build and mini train
