Radar update!

We are wathing a long of strong to severe thunderstorms in Illinois moving east towards Indiana. This line is expected to weaken with the strongest portion of the line across Northern Illinois. NW Indiana has the best chances for seeing a severe thunderstorm with winds to 60mph. The tornado risk is low at this time.

Severe Thunderstorm Watch for Benton, Jasper and Newton County in IN until 9:00pmEDT/8:00pmCDT.

We are watching a potential heat wave on the way next week across the region! Heat index values may range from 100-107°F. Stay tuned! 🥵

Severe weather outlook!

Strong to locally severe thunderstorms are possible later this afternoon. A yellow slight risk (2/5) is in place for far NW Indiana while thr majority of the state with the exception of the far SW Indiana is in a marginal (1/5) risk by the Storm Prediction Center.

Hazards-

● Locally strong to severe winds up to 60mph
● brief tornado can't be ruled out, especially NW Indiana.
● small hail.

-WHAT-

AM showers and thunderstorms will continue to move out of the state and we may see a lull in activity until our next piece of energy moves in later this evening. We are watching what is known as an MCV or mesoscale convective vortex. This is a localized area of low pressure (spin) that was left behind by yesterday's storms in the upper Midwest. Currently this area of low pressure is sitting in central IA. It is expected to move East/NE this afternoon into tonight. Storms are expected to redevelop near the MCV this afternoon as it moves into a very moist and unstable atmosphere.

-UNCERTAINTY-

Uncertainty remains as to how far south storm will fire. Current guidance this morning has the MCV (spin) moving more NE across Lake Michigan and into west central Michigan later this evening. This would suggest that the best forcing (lift) for storm develop and suitability will be to our North just across the Michigan border. This scenario would suggest storms of a more scattered nature across Northern Indiana with many not seeing any rain at all. Storms that are able to fire will pose a risk for locally strong to damaging winds and perhaps a brief tornado. The best dynamics for severe weather during these set-ups are areas closest to the MCV itself where better ingredients are.

It is also worth mentioning that there is another MCV remnant currently across Southern Indiana. This will also need to be watched to see how it evolves this afternoon.

The ultimate outcome will be determined by where the MCV tracks and where storms are able to form. Southern and Central Indiana while in a marginal risk may not see much storm activity at all today depending on which solution becomes reality.

The bottom line is to remain weather aware as MCV/boundry set-ups are tricky and ever evolving where no scenario is "set in stone".

CORN SWEAT! 🌽🌽 Higher dew points than Florida!

Dew points may be as high as the low 80s the next few days across Indiana! A lot of these high dew points are thanks to the corn belt of the United States! The top 5 corn producing states in the US include Iowa, Illinois, Nebraska, Minnesota, & Indiana. Roughly 31.54% of the world's corn is grown in these states!

1 acre of corn can transpire 3,000-4,000 gallons of water per day through a process termed evapotranspiration! If you do the math, an Olympic sized swimming pool holds roughly 660,000 gallons of water. This would mean that on a good day, 165 acres of corn could transpire enough water to fill an olympic sized swimming pool in 24 hours (Assuming all 165 acres are transpireing 4,000 gallons)! That's a LOT of water!

We will surpass disrespectful levels this week as dew points climb to 80°F in places across Indiana! This is largely thanks to the increased transpiration of water fron corn fields across the corn belt!

Thunderstorms return this afternoon. However, they will be scattered in nature. This also means that not everyone will see rain today.

No severe weather is expected today. Main Hazards today will be lightning, heavy downpours, and perhaps an isolated microburst.

07/15/2025

Disrespectful dew points return tomorrow! Dew points may exceed 75°F for many for the foreseeable future. 🥵
