If yer in Indy, ya might wanna head on home, it's gonna get nasty. Weather.com is calling for tornados, large hail, 60+mph winds and all kinds of other stuff.

Just started raining here, storms are really building in Illinois and heading towards Indy...

Hell, I just hope there is no large hail with this one. My Explorer is STILL in the body shop from the hail storm 5 weeks ago, with over $10.2k damage. I don't need the rental van or my lovely wife's Aztek getting damage on it.

Here was the last one including a pict of the little twister...

They said a little earlier that they were having hurricane force winds in Illinois, too.....76 mph.

....and it's not even hurricane season for another week!

I was at work today and I could have sworn we were in Florida... sunny and cool one moment, then torrential rainfall the next, then sunny and hot and humid as an S-O-B... been like that all day (I'm in north central Illinois so we got the top of what you are getting now)

I remember that storm well. I have never seen hail so large in my life.
