Wow

[Tomer Burg @burgwx]

If you're monitoring tomorrow's anticipated severe weather outbreak, you've heard of or noticed exceptionally strong kinematics & synoptic forcing for June.

Just how strong are we talking? Verbatim, the ECMWF would break the June monthly MSLP record (1950-2024) by *over 4 hPa*!

[NWS Chicago @NWSChicago]

Good morning, there remains a threat for severe weather today w/1 or 2 rounds of storms possible. Conditions will be favorable for fast-moving severe storms, especially during the afternoon and near/south of a warm front. Here are additional details on the forecast.

@Central_IL_Wx @CPalermo_Storms No photogenic rope gets passed you dude lmao

[JakeBWx @JakeB_wx]

@CPalermo_Storms Sleeper year tbh

[JakeBWx @JakeB_wx]

@JackPeltz1 Never have and imo never have needed to

[Andrew Pritchard @skydrama]

Today will go down as the craziest weather day I have ever covered in my home state. Gambled east in the open warm sector / modifying outflow regime ahead of the PFT/cold front and it paid off in the form of numerous large, damaging, but photogenic tornadoes in central Illinois.

[Connor Dickerson @ConnordWX]

Ipava, IL tornado earlier today was quite a show, managed to catch its whole lifecycle. Huge win. #ilwx

[Owen Szarley @OwenWxIllinois]

What a crazy tornado near Streator, IL! It took on multiple shapes and sizes through its life. I’m hoping for minimal damage and injuries in town!

[JakeBWx @JakeB_wx]

PDS sunset complete with crepuscular rays

[Ethan Mok @Emokwx]

Very ominous shelf cloud blasting through northern Illinois with this severe warned complex #ilwx

[MLB @MLB]

In one night, Braden Montgomery made his MLB debut and collected his:
- first hit
- first RBI
- first home run
- first walk-off
- first walk-off home run

[Connor Dickerson @ConnordWX]

Unwarned QLCS tornado just now in Bowdon, ND. @NWSBismarck @MaxVelocityWX

[brendon @brendonme]

Weirdest lightning optics that I've ever seen. Not sure what's going on here #wywx

[JakeBWx @JakeB_wx]

@a_dose_of_wx

[JakeBWx @JakeB_wx]

What an absolute joke. Might as well be a ENW flux rope at this point

[JakeBWx @JakeB_wx]

@Emokwx @Central_IL_Wx What a swamp up to 700 mb

[JakeBWx @JakeB_wx]

@ConnordWX 🐐

[Connor Dickerson @ConnordWX]

UFO spotted in Jetmore, KS. #kswx

[JakeBWx @JakeB_wx]

@StrmchsrHunterF I’ve chased most busy May setups in the last few years and it feels to me it’s never getting better. Maybe if we have a stretch like 2020-2022 again but even then any decent setup will draw hordes out. I worry there isn’t a good solution for either chasers or law enforcement

[MLB @MLB]

The @WhiteSox have won 15 of their past 18 home games 😤
