Sister in law lives there and just called her sister here. Sounds bad. Anybody close there that has the scoop? Looks like a huge storm.

Looks like it'll hit Milwaukee instead of Chicago. My mother lives just south of Milwaukee and has been texting me all afternoon. Hopefully it loses strength soon. Looks like its cruising along stateline.

2 inch hail here in Freeport IL. Lots of rain also looks like the worst of it stayed in ILL and didn't cross the border. I am in Green but you might have figured that.
America only has one issue, we have a Responsibility crisis and everything else stems from it.

Sad to hear. Mom Nature can be a witch. That storm was in Lincoln NE this morning with 70 mph winds. It's hung in there.

They are saying it's a derecho. We had one go through a while back. They can make a mess.
