Good evening Ford truck fans of Illinois, Sean, Shaun, Pat, and Rod!

Thanks to the warm temperatures and an all day rain our white crap is gone. Had tornado warnings during the dinner hour for our area. There was a tornado on the ground about 35 miles south of here.

We had heavy rainfall and with all of the leaves in the streets and washing over the storm drains, has produced street flooding all over town.
The temperature now is 61°.

Good evening Rick and I Pray no one was injured or lost anything from the tornado and the street flooding was only an aggravation.
Made it to almost 60° and now 51° and expecting storms overnight and over 60° tomorrow. After that back in the freezer late in the week.

Howdy Rod!

There were 2 tornado related injuries in the small farming community South of here. That tornado is still on the ground 40 miles East of here. The weather guy has said this tornado has been tracked for the last several hours.

We'll be back in the freezer late next week also.

Yeah, the snow hit before the truck vacuum cleaner got the leaves out of the street piles, so similar pluggage issue here.

Howdy

Howdy Sean!

The leaves were late to fall here too.

There is a severe thunderstorm cell that produced several tornadoes in the Pontiac area right now heading for you Sean.

The last tornado warning has just now expired. All you get now is the rain.

As long as the snow keeps melting, is all good.
