SchaumburgStormer Posted Friday at 07:56 PM Share Posted Friday at 07:56 PM Broad rotation, but nothing too exciting right now. Constant low rumble of thunder though 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SchaumburgStormer Posted Friday at 08:52 PM Share Posted Friday at 08:52 PM That was a fun way to kill an hour. Storm had a lot of low level rotation but it was broad. Needed just a little kick to tighten it up and it may have spun up a quick one. Passed just NE of me, so I got to watch the whole evolution on the deck. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheNiño Posted Saturday at 07:37 AM Share Posted Saturday at 07:37 AM Only 27 more to go to tie the record for most tornadoes on record in any state. Not sure it’ll happen but it’ll be remarkably close. What a crazy spring/summer 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
