June 2013 Updates

Tuesday, June 4th, 2013- Well...I'm sick. But that started today. The reason this update is delayed is because I have just been too busy! BUSY HAVING FUN!! However, I did make the update video for this month today. The past few days have been...ehh. We did get a few storms. But nothing to good. I need to upload my videos that I'm behind on. Things will happen. They just take time.
Monday, June 10th, 2013- Well, I have been sick for a few days and I come back to my bottom bar missing... :-o!!! I investigated to find that all the codes are there...it's just not there. The hosting site still has them, I can still customize it, it just...not there. Maybe it'll come back. I already took the code out and put it back in and that didn't work. We'll have to see. I liked that bottom bar. :'(
Wednesday, June 12th, 2013- Ok, this well be fun. This is one of those continuing posts. I did this before with one of our epic snow storms
  • 1:00 p.m.- Today, we are in the line of fire for some epic storms. We are in the PINK zone! I don't get to say that a lot. 
  • 5:00 p.m.- Right now, we are getting the pop-ups in Illinois. It's still clear over here. But it's starting. I'm getting ready.
  • 5:30 p.m.- Even more pop-up are forming, it's turning into a line. HERE WE GO! It'll be here in an hour, maybe more. Unless a pop-up forms on us.
  • 6:00 p.m.- It's getting better. There are storms forming above the other line. We just have to wait and see. My area has a TOR:CON (a chance for tornadoes  of 5 out of 10. A 50% chance!
  • 6:30 p.m.- It's getting closer. It's on my radar now. And we are getting some pop-ups, only one. Back at 1:00, the future track show them getting here at 7:00. I don't trust future tracks, but this one might be right. We'll have to wait and see.
  • 7:30 p.m.- It's ok, here we go. There are pop-ups below us and they all have tornado warnings. The are going east though. It's getting better. I had a feeling we would be missed...but then I look at my other radar that's for Chicago... and this one. Yep, this could be epic.
  • 7:30 p.m.- Judging by my radars and the news tracking of the storms, they are going to miss us. They are going to go just below us. I knew it.
  • 9:30 p.m.- We got missed. But we did get clippedHere's some pictures. There was a boat load lightning. I got some good video. There's still more forming, so we'll have to see.
  • 11:59 p.m.- Nothing happened...Goodnight.
Wednesday, June 24th, 2013- Ok, today was epic. We had a EPIC storm. I would have tracked it like the last storm, but I wasn't excepting it. The last big storm was suppose to be a derecho and directly hit us. So, I was ready and tracked it with updates. But it didn't happen. Well, guess what! That's what this storm was! I was able to track it like I did becuase...I didn't know it was there!! Until it was here! Well, I saw it in Chicago and it took a hour to get here. Anyways, it's like it was making up for what I missed out on. And boy...I made up for it. Here's the pictures I uploaded on personal Facebook. Which is pubic so I don't know why I made my other one. I had a blast with this storm. It was on the top for this year. And it's just starting. We'll have to see what tomorrow or any other time holds.
