9:30 PM STORM UPDATE:

Severe storms are ongoing well west of us with a few tornado warnings near Rockford and Peoria. Meanwhile a large area of showers and severe storms continues to roam the southern Indiana and Kentucky border.

We’ll continue to watch the line to our west head eastward—likely a midnight or later arrival now.

Experience would also tell me that the activity downstate may also rob us of some of the moisture that streams from the Gulf of Mexico—helping storms to not be quite as robust as they arrive later tonight.

Stay tuned!
