I’m biting my words. All I can say is illinois is doing crazy shit in 2026. Sorry for spewing this bullshit, cause boy it got scary quick. Hopefully everyone is alright. Sending prayers to those being impacted #ilwx#wxtwitter#wxx#inwx
I’m really not buying the whole EF3+ supercellular tornado threat today folks. After such an expansive MCS and cold pool during this time of day, the window for destabilization is closing quick, along with the extensive cloud cover shown on satellite near Missouri.
A close look at the motion of the large cone tornado while located near Washburn, Illinois, triggering the tornado emergency.
Status: Thankfully, no fatalities have been reported

My current thinking is there will still be a significant damaging wind threat with embedded tornadoes, but the window to realize a true supercellular tornado risk is just not there. #ilwx#wxx#wxtwitter
