@NWSChicago here is the fixed version. Taken at 11:15pm North of Streator, IL

[MattR_Wx @thomasjoeseph2]

@NWSChicago near streator IL

[MattR_Wx @thomasjoeseph2]

@Meso_Station_ @NWSChicago I believe it was E 15th road

[MattR_Wx @thomasjoeseph2]

Also @NWSChicago, both these screen shots are clipped from a video that runs between 1:11am-1:13am. Seems to be a possible tornado. This is taken near IL-23 and I-55 just North of Pontiac, IL

Watch first video only, sorry for orientation issues

[MattR_Wx @thomasjoeseph2]

@SlipSoapB @theiconjon @fuzzyfromyt Kinda sad that you didn’t make one actual point

[MattR_Wx @thomasjoeseph2]

@JoezMcfLy It’s barely even drizzling idk why we are in a delay

[MattR_Wx @thomasjoeseph2]

@DeeSnut68319213 @BaseballWRLD_ We are hating cause it’s dumb. Doesn’t fix any of the actual problems. And we crazy overpaid.

SEVERE WEATHER AND #TORNADO SZN 2026 IS NOT OVER!

The CFS long-range supercell parameter product shows a reignited ring of fire pattern in early August across the central Plains from Wyoming, Nebraska east to Illinois overtop a compressed summertime anticyclone.

NEVER stop chasing

@NWSChicago unfortunately I don’t have specific locations but these are some images of tree damage in Beecher, IL.

[MattR_Wx @thomasjoeseph2]

@StarInBoxWx The 10th which definitely deserved it. Chicagoland area, specifically south suburbs were an absolute mess for days

[MattR_Wx @thomasjoeseph2]

@TakeTheirSouls @nilwxreports That has nothing to do with temperature

[MattR_Wx @thomasjoeseph2]

@JarrodOlson15 @MikeInNebraska @midwestern_ope Probably could even draw from Des Moines or Kansas City too

[MattR_Wx @thomasjoeseph2]

@StarInBoxWx Got 99 problems but a rotating updraft ain’t one

[MattR_Wx @thomasjoeseph2]

@StarInBoxWx Awful take
