Severe Storm Chances Thursday & Friday



A very warm, unstable airmass is moving into Central Illinois today, bumping highs into the mid to upper 80s.








As a quasi-stationary cold front to the northwest will begin sparking showers and thunderstorms this afternoon. These storms will move southeast into the evening and overnight hours with the potential to become severe. All of Central Illinois has a slight risk of severe weather today, with large hail and strong winds being the primary threat.







The front slowly moves south into Friday, allowing for more storm development. The slight risk for severe weather continues tomorrow, extending south through all of Illinois. Again, large hail and damaging winds are the likely threat.
