I have received several reports of pea-sized hail from Tippecanoe, White, Clinton & Tipton counties this evening.  Much of the shower/t’shower action is now confined to our northern counties with a few brief showers elsewhere.  So, the small hail threat has ended.

Scattered severe threat will be well southeast of our area tonight.  Quite a bit of warm, dry air (yeah, 80s & 90s from Missouri to Texas to Alabama to Georgia & Tennessee today) gliding over areas where sufficient, juicy dew points exist will prevent a larger event.  Even with this, it has been hard for really juicy 60s dew points to move very far north.  Much of the humid air for storms is getting shunted eastward or……..like I said, capped (even with good upper forcing & very high wind shear numbers).

Snow will continue to slowly pivot southeastward tonight & will pass through Friday morning-afternoon with 1″ or less of accumulation over most of the area.  Since it will not drop below freezing until tomorrow evening, the snow will not stick the best.  higher amounts of 1.5 to 4″ will occur in our far northwest.  Oddly, thundersnow has been reported near Chicago tonight with snow mixed with graupal/small hail at Rockford.

Winds still look gusty tonight-tomorrow with peak gusts up to 40 mph.
