June 11th Tornado Storm System - Touchdown confirmed

[Agent Abe Caprine]

FUCK. That's all I can say as a Midwesterner. FUCK!

There's been a repeating pattern of this meteorologist identifying potential tornadoes but there being no official warnings for the residents. He's been yelling about this needing a warning for like 20 minutes and it only now received a warning. Apparently the tornado has already fully formed before the warning was given.


Edit: it has moved past Schererville and moving north of Merrillville into a densely populated suburb

the black dot is a HUGE debris ball on radar

Cue the Devil May Cry memes, you know which one. But in all seriousness, take cover and stay safe.

Will it hit Chicago?
Like, can it hit Chicago? Just a little, as a treat?

There are a ton of thuderstorms southwest of Chicago that could spawn a tornado

Area of convergence forming to the west of Chicago

If y'all ain't watching Mex Velocity you should. I'm only posting the big points but there is so much shit going on

 

[The Stranger]

Hard to see but another has touched down south of Hebron, IN. The one west of Chicago has also touched down in Bartlett IL

The tornado south of Hebron occluded and is now being absorbed into a new tornado

It's headed straight for Wanatah, a largely residential town in the middle of the country

Two new tornadoes down in Michigan

Some more damage from Streator, IL

An unwarned tornado is now hitting Twelve Mile in Indiana. Apparently it's getting even bigger, still no warning has been issued for it

 

[The Stranger]

I'm going to be logging off for tonight, will probably post some aftermath pics tomorrow.

Last little update: several unwarned tornadoes have touched down in Indiana, one of which is west of Indianapolis. It will probably occlude before it hits Indianapolis but it could reform and hit it.

Also, HUGE debris signature over Wabash, IN

still no warning has been issued for it

The delays in issuing warnings is really disturbing to me tbh.

 

[The Last Stand]

I heard that being AROUND the tip of the tornado is as dangerous since it's debris cycling around at 100+ mph winds. Maybe you'd get sucked alive, then flown like action figures somewhere.
