7/1/12 De Kalb, IL convection

Well, it looks like we are into a summer pattern here in northern Illinois.  Sloppy convection with the occasional shelf cloud or two.  Today was one of those days where I was getting my laundry together and glanced at the radar.  There seemed to be a nice little shelf cloud forming to the west, so I decided to head out and have a look.  It wasn't too impressive but I won't pass up on a local opportunity to see something.
