Isolated thunderstorms will continue to develop through the evening. The greatest coverage of storms will initially be over northeast IL and northwest IN, but additional development is expected west of the Fox Valley after 7 PM. Keep an eye on the sky. #ILwx #INwx

[N IL Severe Weather 🌪️ @NILSevereWX]

148pm: Strong line of storms pushing through the Chicagoland area producing 60mph winds and hail up to an inch in diameter. Expect periods of heavy rainfall as well. Allow yourself extra time while traveling today!

@ItsRobWX nam 3k, had the morning convection slightly under what the other cams forecasted, and that ended up being what happened.

[Ben Williams @ben_williams_wx]

It looks more likely that parts of E IA into N IL will be dodging a significant tornado event today, due to miss timed upper level support, wonky thermos and morning convection.

A surging OFB in SE IA should modify and move NE throughout the afternoon although…

Color me intrigued on Sunday evenings severe threat across northern IL

An initial supercell to upscale MCS appears most probable but in the first few hours, especially if a storm can really get rooted along this boundary and utilize strong LL winds, it could be an all hazards situation with chance for a tornado.

@ItsRobWX chicago won't exist a week from today.

[Brady Harris @StormCat5_]

Monday AND Tuesday need to be watched closely for potential Tornadoes.

This may be the first real Severe Weather setup we've had in a while.

I'll keep watching this like a HAWK 🦅

[Drew Brummel @DrewBrummelWX]

One thing that is obvious for Monday’s severe weather setup - LOTS of instability

[Andrew Pritchard @skydrama]

A favorable period for repeated severe thunderstorm risks (potentially significant at times!) is becoming increasingly likely from August 9-12 across portions of the Midwest.
