This is going to either go through Dublin or just miss by a mile or two to the south based on what I can see from Channel 11, their radar and storm spotter report.

NBC Five says storm appears to be reorganizing.

Not much in front of it for a while as far as decent sized towns go.

The structure of this storm (from photos I'm seeing online) is just amazing. The mothership look.

Tornado Warning on storm that moved past Dublin has now FINALLY been allowed to expire.

That was some storm.

EDIT: With a severe thunderstorm warning (hail possibly to baseball sized and winds possibly up to 70 mph), I guess it STILL is some storm.
