This links to a different video but I found it on YouTube. I've been through Bluff City many times just east of Vandalia. Was there a tornado there today? I thought they are a bit west by Litchfield. |

Btw, here is the correct link to tut Bluff City footage. I've been there many times. It is a very small town. My aunt and uncle lived near there. youtu.be/SUhcjhF0PzU |

I didn't think there was anything in Fayette county, thought it was all W/NW of them.

There is a Bayle City, but again it's in Fayette county (east of Bingham, so NNW of Bluff City) as well. We can rule that one out too. |

Haven’t had a chance to go through all the posts yet. I live near Tampa, FL now. The rotation on Radar in Illinois this afternoon looked wicked. Hope everyone is ok.

Thats some strong WAA on the GFS to. Have to think an ice storm may happen immediately south of the snowfield

Thats some strong WAA on the GFS to. Have to think an ice storm may happen immediately south of the snowfield Since the WAA is always underdone, I would already be thinking sleet contamination will cut the double digit snowfall numbers in half. Could be a fun storm that drops good snow for some, but more likely a wintry mix. |

If the gfs or Canadian is accurate- we won’t need to worry about mixing
