High Risk Expanded

The Storm Prediction Center has expanded the "High Risk" area for severe storms today/tonight.  The area now includes nearly all of Indiana, much of Illinois, southern Wisconsin, southern Michigan and Western Ohio.

The outlook above is valid through 7am ET Monday.

The BIG concern for today is damaging winds and tornadoes.  The tornado threat is highest in the high risk area.

There is a large population base that lives within the risk areas today.  67-million live in a threat area.  Almost 19-million live within the high risk.

Take today seriously.  If a warning is issued for your location, seek shelter IMMEDIATELY.

Reminder... Follow me on Twitter (@johndissauer) as I will be sending out more real-time updates through that medium this afternoon/evening.
