Severe weather started Sunday evening and lasted through the overnight and into Monday morning in the south. In fact, that same storm brought thunderstorms to parts of north-central and northeast Illinois very early this morning. The storm will continue to push a cold front into the southeast as the tornado threat continues into the afternoon. A preliminary count of 21 tornadoes were reported Sunday with a few more this morning. Some of the same locations that were hit with tornadoes last April dealt with the storms again and sadly there have been a few fatalities reported this morning. Storms that form out of season like this can often times be very destructive. Remember back in January 2008 the Poplar Grove tornado and then again November 2011 in Calendonia. Storms could fire up again tomorrow and Wednesday as another low pressure system moves across Texas.
