Severe Weather Path From Peoria to Northwest Cook County: Thunderstorms, Severe Weather And Tornadoes Developing

#ad▼

Chicagoland weather radar shows strong thunderstorms developing with the storms furthest northeast in Kane County and some just starting to enter the northwest panhandle of Cook County at 10:50 a.m. with more severe storms forming at 11:10 a.m.

The line of instability seems to cut through northwest Cook County. Thunderstorms have developed in a line projecting into Cook County from the severe weather that is approaching in a line from Peoria to Kane County and ultimately through northwest Cook County.

Satellite images show clouds blowing up with convection in a line from Peoria to north Cook County, McHenry County and Lake County. Thunder is rumbling in Arlington Heights at 11:00 a.m.

There is a confirmed report of a tornado touchdown near Peoria.

A high of 67 degrees is expected today with temperatures dropping just after 1:00 p.m.
