Lightning Will Be The Main Threat Over the Next Two Hours

Got off the phone with the SPC....here is the latest as of 10:15 p.m.

We had a wind gust near 67 mph reported in Champaign, Illinois but that cell quickly weakened as it moved into a more stable air mass here in Indiana. Be on the outlook for dangerous lightning, heavy downpours, pea-size hail, and wind gusts near 45 mph between now and 12 a.m.

Thanks, Mike! It's good to see that you're not predicting any tornadoes for tonight. That always makes a family rest easier!

My dogs must be shell shocked,they are acting the way they did when we had the earthquake. They were not afraid of storms before. You stated Il had a wind gust of 67, I wonder what we had here about 1/2 hour ago, I had to fasten down my swing It was blowing against the house!

Thanks TV 18 for all you do! And thank you for this blog, I enjoy it.

I just hope we dont have any more wind or lightning. Dogs are sleeping now. But I listen to you and not let my guard down!

I agree, I turned the air off, and now have the windows open, the air smells fresh.
