We have a wind advisory until tomorrow evening. They said we might get a thunderstorm. The sky looked black this afternoon. I'm in Chicago. I hope there are no tornadoes anywhere.

Likely tornado in western IA this afternoon. I don't know if it touched down.

Hi brii,

I hope that there aren't any tornadoes, either. We are under a severe thunderstorm watch until 11 p.m. for parts of southeastern WI. We also are under a wind advisory, too.

I hope that everyone stays safe in the Midwest, who is also under a severe weather advisory.

My daughter goes to school in WI. I'm going to call and check on her.

I hope you stay safe up there, Toppers.

We had bright blue skies today but since yesterday evening the wind has howled and it was cold. Snowy all over the Southwest mountains. Yep, it's winter.

I'm in a south suburb of Chicago and for the last 2 years, winters have been horrible! Hopefully, we'll get a break this year with the crazy amounts of snow. Looking back, I don't know how I made it. Tonight, it's very windy and rain is expected.

At least this winter, since I've just retired, I don't have to go out in it. Thank you, Jesus!!

South Dakota here. We had freezing rain and wind advisories today, but pretty mild comparatively. I got the oil changed in my 4WD truck today, ready for the onslaught! However, supposed to be 60 here on Sunday, so I will be golfing!
