Isolated Thunderstorm Wednesday Evening - Severe Threat Quickly Ending

 9:10pm Update: Our overall severe threat has pretty much come and gone Wednesday evening.  While an isolated strong/severe storm can't be ruled out only a few showers and isolated storms are expected during the overnight. 

Storms over the southern Plains will lift northeast after Midnight impact parts of central Illinois early Thursday morning.  Those could produce some gusty winds but the biggest threat looks to remain south of I-80.  A few showers will last into Thursday morning with mostly cloudy skies expected Thursday afternoon.



Isolated thunderstorms have developed Wednesday evening over northern Illinois and southern Wisconsin.  The storms have remained below severe limits, but did produce pea to penny sized hail in Beloit and South Beloit.

Isolated thunderstorms continue to move east of I-39 this evening with a line of weakening showers and thunderstorms moving into eastern Iowa.  The severe threat continues to quickly decrease this evening as a cold front advances from the west.

Thunderstorms developing over the southern Plains will lift northeast overnight into central Illinois.  These storms will pose a wind threat but mostly south of the area and are expected to move in after Midnight.  A few showers will linger into Thursday with temperatures holding steady in the mid and upper 50s.
