Severe Weather Threat Today/Tonight⚡
*Wednesday Morning Update*
In the wake of some showers/t’storms that traversed portions of Northern and Southern Illinois earlier this morning, the focus now turns towards this afternoon into tonight.
Widely scattered t’storms will develop along an advancing cold front this afternoon across portions of Central and Southern Illinois. This activity will then track southeastward across these areas through tonight. Some of this activity may be severe across portions of Eastern and Southern Illinois, isolated in coverage.
The trend within weather guidance overnight and this morning has been downward, with what was an already low threat (level 1) for severe weather now looking closer to a non-zero threat.
