AREAS AFFECTED AND TIMING:

THERE IS A CHANCE OF THUNDERSTORMS WITH AN ASSOCIATED LOW RISK
OF DAMAGING WINDS LATE THIS MORNING INTO EARLY THIS

THREAT LOOKS TO BE EARLY THIS EVENING...ESPECIALLY NORTH OF
INTERSTATE 80. THUNDERSTORMS WILL SPREAD SOUTH OF I-80 MID TO
LATE EVENING WITH THE SEVERE THREAT GRADUALLY DIMINISHING.

DISCUSSION:

ISOLATED THUNDERSTORMS ARE POSSIBLE THROUGH MID MORNING AHEAD

EXPLOSIVE SEVERE THUNDERSTORM DEVELOPMENT IS EXPECTED ACROSS
SOUTHERN WISCONSIN SOUTHWEST INTO IOWA LATE THIS AFTERNOON.
THESE STORMS ARE THEN FORECAST TO SPREAD SOUTHEAST INTO
NORTHERN ILLINOIS EARLY THIS EVENING. ASSUMING STORMS DEVELOP
AS EXPECTED...THEY WOULD POSE A RISK OF LARGE AND DAMAGING HAIL
AS WELL AS STRONG DAMAGING WINDS. AN ISOLATED TORNADO OR TWO
CANNOT BE RULED OUT. IN ADDITION...THE STORMS WILL BE CAPABLE
OF PRODUCING TORRENTIAL DOWNPOURS AND ISOLATED MINOR FLOODING
PROBLEMS. THE THUNDERSTORMS WILL SPREAD SOUTHWARD AND AFFECT
AREAS SOUTH OF INTERSTATE 80 BY MID TO LATE EVENING...THOUGH
THE THREAT OF SEVERE WEATHER IS EXPECTED TO GRADUALLY DIMINISH
AS THE EVENING WEARS ON.

PORTIONS OF THE IROQUOIS...KANKAKEE...AND ILLINOIS RIVERS WILL
REMAIN IN FLOOD.

.SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT...

SPOTTERS MAY BE NEEDED...ESPECIALLY EARLY THIS EVENING.
