The cell near Edgewood, IL, is now under a Severe Thunderstorm Warning.

It's now under a Tornado Warning (first one of the day). Let's see what it does now...

Storm to the north near Mattoon has a tornado possible tag.

Nice supercell, seems to have matured enough and has a decently strong couplet.

 

[WeathermanLeprechaun]

These cells still aren't really beating the warm air and as a result tend to lean on weaker tornado production. If one can really beat it, then it's game on but that's still pretty conditional. Things are getting activeish however

Merger looks to have completed.

 

[TornadoFan]

Nice lowering.

 

[Ozonelayer]

Really strong couplet, might touch down soon.

[Ozonelayer]

New tornado warning to the north.

 

[TornadoFan]

Tornado warning on the storm to the north now. Over Greenup, IL.

 

[Tennie]

In about another hour or so the Sun will be setting. As such, there is potential for a nocturnal tornado threat tonight.

 

[TornadoFan]

Freddy has a great view.

Storm to the south is starting to look pretty nice.
