.@NWSChicago has moved the threat of strong tornadoes further south so that it now covers all of Chicago.
There is a threat for strong (EF-2 ) tornadoes across northern IL this PM between 4 and 8 PM. The highest threat will be in the dark red shaded area. This area has shifted farther south than previously forecast. Take tornado warnings seriously. #ILwx #INwx
