Storm chasing is risky business....storm chasing at night is suicidal...the NWS is preliminarily calling this an EF-3, but the damage and ground scouring say EF-5.

At the very least this will result in some crazy straight line wind events...the worst is the NWS predicting tornado formation after dark like last week.

Main threat for the Chicago area is wind. 60mph gusts possible. Mostly from 8pm-3am they say. Hopefully it isn't any worse than last Friday nights wind was.

I watched this YouTube video after it went through in summer 2020.. Amazing how it destroyed all the trees in that neighborhood.
It was really tame where I live. I didn't even have a tree branch down. Yet produced an EF0 tornado maybe 1 miles away.

Just took my dog for a walk in shorts and a t-shirt. It's super eerie outside. An odd mix of calmness, clouds, breeze and sky color. I would be surprised if there were not some tornadoes to touch down tonight.

Be alert, my friend...there were 4 tornado warnings in Nebraska already and the line is moving east...it's 10 in southeastern Montana and eastern Colorado, and 75 in western Nebraska...something is going to give...

Not being snarky, but where in IL are basements not basically automatic for houses?
