I think the Weston, WI storm is the current one to watch. Strong couplet and spotter reports of a funnel cloud.

Rockford storm is spinning like an absolute top. Good grief.

It might not be especially strong but Weston is on track to take a direct hit.
Have we had any long track tornadoes yet this year?

Wausau is basically like Kankakee IL in that it's a bunch of towns mushed together with a combined pop of a med-sized city (over 100k), Weston is basically a suburb of the city, and so yeah it's pretty populated for a hit like this.

Don't know if anyone else is having issues on other software, but KGRB is really dragging its feet on GRLevel3.
Not really, no. Definitely not any VLTs.

Kankakee had a 36 mile path and was on the ground for 78 minutes.

Hmmm... lines up well with the couplet, but also with the LP area of the storm. I guess we'll see if it follows the couplet in the next few scans.
edit: Disappeared with the next scan, so I don't think that was tornadic. However, definite TOG with the Weston storm now.

The Hatfield cell now has a fairly impressive BWER on it.

CC drop on the Weston storm has been consistent for the past three scans. Not a particularly strong tornado (at least at face value), but it's definitely there.
Ironically it seems like we may be having one with the Northern WI storm.

new PDS tornado warning seems to have twins base on radar , hard to tell when its in a radar hole but one has a cc drop.

Rockford storm has that look to it.
