Tornadic storms are about 50 miles from the SW Chicago suburbs. Other storms are closer passing through Rockford now.

Yesterday afternoon in Chicago was crazy. Serious wind and lightning.
Decent line of storms came through when I was at Midway a bit ago too.

That main warned storm is ugly as shite, but is getting the job done. Ongoing cell merger......let's see what it does for it.
BWER earlier with it. From two different radars.
It is headed for areas that were hit pretty hard back in the Spring.

In KC today. Wind was blowing fairly hard past two days but I think sort of born out here. Barely missed a few cells

Looks like Reading took a direct hit. That TDS popped when it went over it.

Hope it lifted/weakened as it passed in south Streator. Fairly populated areas.

It doesn't correlate all that well to ground truth, but the TDS with that tornado was 2.5 miles wide, and it grew to that size in 1 radar cycle.

It definitely looks to be on the ground on the southern edge of Streator.

The ugly storm to the south of this one is about to be a problem.

For real.
I was in my house doing an interview at 4:30 and it got dark as night.
I told the dude I was interviewing that I may cut it short cause it looked like Jumanji outside.

I hope he responded:
"That is just the beginning. I’ve seen things you’ve only seen in your nightmares. Things you can’t even imagine. Things you can’t even see. There are things that hunt you in the night. Then something screams. Then you hear them eating, and you hope to God that you’re not dessert. Afraid? You don’t even know what afraid is. You would not last five minutes without me.”

Massive hook echo running right along I-55. And a new possible tornado in Wisconsin near Kenosha - very populated.

The good news is that the southern storm has cut off a lot the inflow for the original warned storm. Bad news is that it is cranking now.
Had a quick spin up SE of Peoria near Deer Creek.

I'm in Pingree Grove near Huntley.
To the North is white/blue sky and the South is black and the wind is gusting 30 mph.
The trees in the neighborhood are in a frenzy.
