This storm looks pretty bad and is going to hit the north shore by 10:40am. These late fall storms can be very bad and are so unique.
Severe storm warnings and Tornado watches & warnings out now for several areas in Greater Milwaukee Area & south and north regions.
Its split into two sections: Burlington area and Sheboygan Co.
Tornado spotted in Walworth County right now.
Another funnel cloud spotted in East Troy as well.
Can anyone report anything yet?
I wish everyone well.
Be safe.
National Weather Service has issued a tornado warning for Milwaukee. Southside in particular is in path of storm and tornado. NWS specifically identified Marquette University area as a target for this storm.
I know this seems odd, but with severe T-storms/weather in the late Fall do very odd things. Be careful.
Thanks for the heads up .. wouldn't have known.
All quiet in WFB.
Sirens going off now in North Shore.

I know. Same here. I'm just north of you in FP. These storms are so weird in the Fall. Water spout over Lake Michigan right now.

Funnel cloud spotted in Union Grove by caller. Doppler radar confirms rotation.
Large tornado spotted on ground in southwest of Chicago and northeast of Peoria.
Stay safe everyone
Thus far, the PTM compound has been split by the storms. Was under a tornado warning around 10A.
Really wish these high winds would pick up some of the leaves in my yard though.
That tornado southeast of Chicago is bad. Wow. It hit near Peoria and still on the ground.
That tornado in Chi is still on the ground and heading toward Streator, IL. It is huge. Pray for those people....
Anybody in the Tosa/West Allis area? At West Allis Hale for volleyball tryouts. Keep hearing what sounds like a siren but doesn't sound like a tornado siren. Sounds almost like something coming from around the football field. Can anyone either confirm or deny that there are sirens going off in the area? If so we have to clear the gym but we don't want to clear tryouts if they aren't sirens. Thanks!

Looks like you're in good shape.
The photos of the damage this tornado caused in IL is horrific.
