Severe storms over eastern Illinois at early evening

Severe storms at 7:45 PM are in progress over eastern Illinois with winds of 60-65 mph.

The storms are moving ESE.

These storms will hit Terre Haute this evening over the southern edge of a severe thunderstorm watch.

The counties around Terre Haute were added after the initial watch to cover these storms which have developed further south than the SPC expected.

There is still a chance these storms or an outflow boundary from them could set something off locally later tonight.

SPC wind damage risk tonight

The SPC has a 15% risk for damaging winds as far south as Scottsburg and Madison.

The Louisville area is in a 5% risk for damaging winds tonight.
