Just another view of LAPs CAPE field here. Lake County appears to have its cell simulated by LAPs during the actual storm time. While the storm over Ogle county did not show up in the CAPE field. HOWEVER… I would like to note that LAPs did initiate with a very high CAPE maxima of almost 3000 J/kg in this area. Perhaps there was slightly stronger cap aloft in this simulation than what occurred in reality.
