Yikes. It looks like 2009’s little brother at the moment. Really getting the bow together.

How long before it reaches the river?
I am heading home from Edwardsville on transit.
If it holds off until 5pm I will make it ok.

This one has more of a NE motion to it, though.

Is the circulation tracking due east? East, north east? North east? Looks like a tick N of due E to me...slowly gaining a little latitude |

Heads up Bourbon and Sullivan...that supercell appears to be trying to turn right and wrapping the RFD around.

Still looks like most of it will be south of 64. I hope so. That new cell so far has a quick northerly look.
But the overall system looks like it will stay mostly South of 64.

Dewpoint has spiked 7* here in the past 3 hours...definitely strong destabilization occurring ahead of this. The entire metro is looking to be under the gun now. This is becoming a very potent setup for the region.

Shear/instability is definitely maximized S of 44/64 but low-level moist advection and heating is destabilizing the metro rapidly. |

Been super busy at work and took a brief look radar. This thing looks really impressive on radar.
Would not be surprised to see some significant wind reports eventually.

Tropical like appearance on VIS/IR satellite and radar. You can see the cyclonic low level inflow underneath an expanding anti-cyclonic canopy on visible. Rotating storms in an arc, similar to spiral bands of vortical hot towers on IR.

Good that a portion of the line isn’t warned anymore. We’ll see if that lasts.
