Light rain and maybe an embedded rumble of thunder or two will continue to move northeast this afternoon with the possibility of stronger storms just south of the WTVO forecast area. We are still highlighted in the 'general storm' risk from the Storm Prediction Center with the slight risk to our south into central and southern Illinois down through the Gulf states. Funnel clouds have actually been reported with a few storms west of Flanagan, IL (near Pontiac, IL) moving quickly to the northeast around 45 mph. These storms are forming right along a stationary boundary helping to provide the instability needed to get these storms moving. Most of this activity should remain south and east of the region, but we'll continue to monitor as we head into this afternoon.
