11:30 PM SEVERE STORM UPDATE:

Severe storms continue to better organize and head southeast towards the Region. These storms are impressive with winds over 70 mph in portions of the line that is now beginning to bow out east of La Crosse. We still have another 2-3 hours before we deal with this, but all indication is that we’ll see a decent line of storms during the early morning hours with damaging winds being the primary threat. Charge your phones and keep the volume turned up so you can get those weather alerts should these storms stay severe as they move through NWI.
