A passing severe thunderstorm across northern Boone and McHenry counties develops a lowering. The wall cloud doesnt develop a tornado or funnel but was an interesting feature to pay attention too.

A significant risk for tornadoes develops across northeast illinois. Rich, Dave and Erik team up to go after the storms, heading to i39 before heading east until a slow moving freight train takes our chances to zero and we never catch up with the storms which drop a series of tornados in the suburbs later.

This slow moving tornado warned storm shows a funnel (more or less was scud ) but was a fun local event just for the area.
