I have GRAVE concerns for the Springfield IL area -- spotters are continuing to forward reports of a significant tornado to the city's SW moving NE.

AT 809 PM CST...NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE DOPPLER RADAR AND STORM SPOTTERS WERE TRACKING AN EXTREMELY DANGEROUS TORNADO. THIS TORNADO WAS LOCATED NEAR NEW BERLIN...OR ABOUT 14 MILES SOUTHWEST OF SPRINGFIELD...MOVING NORTHEAST AT 45 MPH.
