And It Is Storm Season........

Parts of Central Illinois will have a Tor Con Index of as high as 6 tomorrow. Also good chances of large, 1 inch, hail. Severe storm chance too.

Our local power company is also being hard hit with the virus. So it may take longer to restore power if any outages.

Hoping and praying for the best for the middle of the country, weather wise.

@4kitties Thanks for the head's up (I'm in Iowa). I hadn't looked at the weekend weather forecast yet.

I’m on the KS/MO border and we had pea sized hail last night. Lots of it.

When I took my dog outside later it was stacked up and looked like snow. Totally bizarre because it was about 55 here.

@hippiechick7897 Also on KS/MO line. Last night was something else. Beautiful to watch, though. I opened bedroom blinds and watched until I fell asleep. Dog didn't share my appreciation for the storm. Ready for several days of sunshine in a row. We get a day now and again. (My grown kids' nickname for me is hippiechick - always liked your name)

Praying for your safety, @4kitties.

We had a tornado warning a week or so ago. I didn't take it seriuous, and we had no damage, but there actually was a small tornado in my county that night. No one was hurt, there was just damage to a barn, is what was reported.

We have nothing like that here but we are having rain starting this weekend and going for at least the next week and a half.
