Even with Doppler, when you zoom in as close as they were, its still pixels.

Despite having the B crew late on a Sunday evening, WGN did a great job explaining the radar images and what was going on.

It aint the six minutes. Its what happens in those six minutes.

Seems unlikely. It hit in the middle of the afternoon. She lived in Rockford and had friends in Plainfield in high school.

Also, power and phone lines were knocked out. And, infamously, there were no alerts.

There are lots of problems in that thread unless people were using carphones.

"My daughter went to each of the surrounding houses to bring our neighbors back to our house for shelter and clothing. Our son gave away all of our clothing to everyone who needed it. Everyone stayed in our property until police and ambulance arrived. One neighbor needed 70 stitches on his back from the storm," Litwiller said.

Today, his children are adults, living in different states, but the terrors of the tornado is now an inherent part of their lives.

"Even 30 years, later whenever either one has a bad storm they call each other to make sure they are doing OK," he said.

The tornado had struck without warning — no sirens to announce its approach.

You should hop on the old Twitter machine and let her know there are some discrepancies in her story worth examining.

I hope that people keep up on the roasting for a few days. People have suffered tragedies and those pathetic clowns are making it about themselves.

Yep. Lotta issues in Jon's story as well. By the time the sirens actually went off, the 1990 tornado had already dissipated.


Another confirmed tornado from last night

Jon is saying he was in Downers Grove and heard sirens going off the same night of the Plainfield tornado.

She lies to all fields. Consistent at least.

Tornado would have been 45 minutes past DG when the warnings came. Probably no sirens.

Reminds me of how Norm MacDonald post 9/11 was trucking through the blood and bones to try to find his brother after that horrible incident. Turns out his brother had been watching on the TV safe and sound in Canada.

Sirens went off in Sycamore. I remember bracing in the hallway at school....sky went green.

are tornado warnings and sirens linked? sunday night my siren went off 15-20 minutes before a tornado warning had been issued for my area.

Sounds like it’s going to rain forever.

We definitely needed some rain. Sucks that it's going to probably wash out the kids' baseball tourney this weekend.

_________________

Yep the rains are needed but its sucks that it has to happen on a Friday & Saturday. Hopefully we'll make up for it with great weather for the Holiday.

_________________

I realize the forecasts will change 50 times, but on my weather app, there is at least 30% of rain everyday through 7/6.

STOP FUCKING RAINING!!!!

a week ago you couldn't have convinced me that we would have ponding going on in fields with how dry it was but the puddles are starting to show up. Bloomington area had over 8 inches in the last 24 hours as of 7am. Same as southwest Wisconsin.
