Hawkeye Posted June 28, 2017 Report Share Posted June 28, 2017 latest HRRR nails my backyard hard, but a very fine cutoff line between Cedar Rapids and Iowa City. Yeah, recent runs of the HRRR are making me cringe, showing the line of big storms developing southeast of a Des Moines to Cedar Rapids line. I've been concerned about this all week. These convective events just love to trend south following previous night/morning activity. I'm also not feeling optimistic about Thursday/night convection. I'd much rather be along the IA-MO border.
