Yeah... pretty normal, but a little surprising tonight, although after we reached 76 today I was certain we would get some storms. You don't have a Late Spring day in February and get away with it...

It's quiet now. Even the thunder and lightning has subsided. Looks like we'll just BARELY miss it, but I see more development. I'll be shocked if we get through the next few hours without a storm.

[SpMustangsCf14]

yah idk wut to tell ya thats how it is up here, im on the south side of chicago n when it comes to almost any weather event our town misses it any severe weather usually b/c of tha air conditioner (lake michigan)
