hlcater Posted May 26, 2016 Share Posted May 26, 2016 Funnel cloud reported per scanner. must be tail end charlie? Yup, scanner, and spotter report for funnel cloud. called it earlier. NWS needs a warning on that one too. Edit: Rotation on radar for that storm is not that impressive on lowest tilt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JasonOH Posted May 26, 2016 Share Posted May 26, 2016 Connor Healy's spotter network has not updated. He was directly under the debris ball. Edit: still hasn't updated. I'm friends with him and he has 1 other in the car. We are texting them to see if they are ok. Edit 2: they just got back to us and we're within a mile of it and are OK.

Chicago Storm Posted May 26, 2016 Share Posted May 26, 2016 The main part of Chapman sits just south of I-70. So the main portion of town should be missed, unless movement changes once again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stebo Posted May 26, 2016 Share Posted May 26, 2016 It may JUST miss to the south of Chapman.. Maybe. I think so, the south side of Chapman is less populated due to the river, but it is going to be damn close. If it moves more east in the next few minutes then it will hit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
