[sbnwx85]

Probably need a Tornado Emergency for Knox, IN

Tornado Emergency issued

[Chicago WX]

Violent as fuck. This is looking south on Schuyler Ave (45/52) on the far southside of IKK. This is legit 5 miles from my house. Would have been catastrophic if this moved a bit north through the city.

Friends of ours that live on Sandbar Road near Aroma Park say its not pretty. Lots of homes damaged.

Weird phenomenon here in Grand Rapids.  Huge gravity waves on the local radar.  Wind rapidly shifting east, then west.

Outflow from storms I’m guessing. It looks like as the low off to the west deepens that the air has turned more ENE north of the Michigan border. Heck I was at my buddy’s in Lambertville, MI and it’s 20° colder there than in Perrysburg, OH. We’ve got a pretty stout system powering that large supercell right now

If this long tracker keeps its legs look out. Its starting to enter areas less of farmland and more of subdivisions.

Me and you both. I'll take a bad roof and gutters over that.

Yea, it’s 38 degrees here and there was a raging thunderstorm with continuous lightning copious amounts of small hail.  Crazy inversion with 60 degrees temps surging in aloft.

Glad to hear you're okay! Current plan is for me to be on the survey team in southern Kankakee tomorrow. We'll have another team heading into Newton and Jasper.

Hope everyone else from the area that posts on the board is alright and no friends or family were significantly affected.

[HillsdaleMIWeather]

Supercell is making another go at it just south of @sbnwx85before the line overruns it in a little over an hour or so

[KeenerWx]

I heard either the tornado or some nasty straight line winds. But thankfully no damage to the house. I was going to get out and see how close it got. But unfortunately right outside the neighborhood there’s already tree and powerline damage so I’ll have to check in the morning. Power’s out and cell service is jammed and slowwwww. I can’t even load Facebook and whatnot to see what people are sharing locally. 

[HillsdaleMIWeather]

Line looks to be slowly strengthening as it crosses Lake Michigan 

[sbnwx85]

Sounds like some damage in Knox but the EMA director didn’t sound too concerned. We also saw photos as it tracked south of South Bend but damage is relatively minor across the southern part of the county. Could have been much worse. We’ll see what daylight brings.

Major damage in/near Lake Village IN with a report of 2 fatalities, multiple homes destroyed.

Damn, was headed that way but couldn't get in ahead of the cell so bailed south.

This was the Toto/Knox IN tor-e, just a screenshot from a video but not great quality.

Also what I've heard from Kankakee from my friends who chased there was that a lot of chasers got kinda caught out, large/giant hail was being flung around, and smashing cars, lot of damage in those neighborhoods

Did you get on storm later further east or did you see the Kankakee tornado and massive hail? We were on that storm by Pontiac. Got a brief touchdown with wickedly rotating wall cloud. Then storm just quit. We followed it a while. It got an elevated/outflow look and look terrible on radar and I figured it was getting into the more stable air north of boundary. We headed west and boy was that a mistake. One of my biggest chase mistakes of my career. This will sting a while. 

[michaelmantis]

That line of storms in Northern Kane/Dekalb counties just tossed a few minutes of pea-sized hail near me. Wicked sound all around the house. 

[sbnwx85]

Getting some good winds out of the squall line now.
