There remains a significant threat of severe weather across much of central Illinois later today, especially this evening. The highest risk (level 3 of 5) extends from about Peoria and Springfield eastward; this area has the highest chance of seeing hail larger than golf balls, and wind gusts over 70 mph. The window for tornadoes is smaller than the overall severe weather threat, generally before 8 pm. As the storm push further south toward I-70 by late evening, they will be in a weaker state, but still capable of producing some hail and strong winds. Continue to monitor the weather today, especially as we get later into the afternoon hours, and be prepared to move quickly if severe weather threatens your area.
