Noon Update: On the South Edge of a Severe Weather Outbreak
Tornadoes with debris signatures on radar are cutting through Illinois right now (11:30 a.m.). The risk in Illinois, Wisconsin, Indiana, Michigan, northern Kentucky, and Ohio is much greater than ours, but you need to pay attention to our weather this afternoon and tonight.
On the Edge of a “Major Severe Weather Outbreak”
This morning’s Storm Prediction Center (SPC) headline reads “A Major Severe Weather Outbreak is Forecast Today and/or Tonight.”
SPC”s “High Risk” category of severe weather category is rarely used. It’s in effect over Eastern Illinois, all of Indiana, southwest Michigan, and western Ohio. Chicago, Indianapolis, and Cincinnati are a few of the major cities included. If you have friends and family in the “High Risk” area, urge them to monitor the weather. This is not an “ordinary severe weather day” for them. It does not get worse than a “High Risk.”
