Good cells forming across Illinois, but they seem to be a squall line. Surprised they haven't gone High Risk. IMO Watch 193 should be a PDS and Watch 194 a Tornado Watch, not a Severe Thunderstorm Watch.

Tough to balance religion and storm tracking here...

I'm thinking today is looking quite promising. More so than the last few days anyway. Hope everyone stays safe... I don't see an end to this severe weather on the horizon :eek:

Me either! I guess the fact that the Lord has Risen has made the impression that severe weather should rise too!

Have a Happy - and Safe - Easter!

Eeeek I don't want to hear about how 194 should be a TOR! It's that whole empty house thing....

We're getting some storms now, nothing severe right now, just some nice rolling thunder, and some heavy rain. I'm hoping it stops soon because I want to go get some lunch :P

Dean, that picture is the tornado that hit Stoughton, Wisconsin (close to Madison) last year. http://www.stoughtontornado.org/

Spotters reported a touchdown in the City of Bloomington, Illinois on Route 9 near Wal-Mart, 5 minutes ago.

The Wal-Mart has everyone in the storage rooms.

OK I'm having trouble with the SPC site. The good news is that if there is a touchdown in a commercial area, few should be affected as most are closed.

The touchdown was just rolling rotation. Confirmed now. No touchdown.

OK thanks. Everyone probably equals only a handful of people in that case.

The dry line is the cold front way out in Missouri and Iowa I believe. This is ahead of the cold front.
