Got Radarscope a few days ago, looks like this would be a good event to put it to use, but it seems like a lot of the storms will be at night and I have 9 AM class tomorrow. sigh :roll:

So since there's nothing going on here in my neck of the woods, guess I'll monitor this thread. Looks like there's a couple of severe storm warnings southwest of St. Louis.

Since it isn't going south of 36N, keep it north of 38N. I have no interest in dealing with it.

Soupy as all get out right now; feels like July.
