THE GREATEST TORNADO THREAT CORRIDOR EXTENDS FROM SOUTH-CENTRAL IL
INTO PARTS OF CENTRAL/SOUTHWEST IN THIS EVENING, WHERE AIR MASS
RECOVERY CONTINUES OUT OF THE SOUTHWEST. SUPERCELLS IN THIS REGION
HAVE BEEN TORNADIC AT TIMES, ALSO PRODUCING LARGE DAMAGING HAIL.

A COUPLE STRONG TORNADOES THROUGH THIS EVENING OVER A SMALL PORTION

OH LATER TONIGHT, WITH TORNADO POTENTIAL DEPENDING ON INSTABILITY.
