14. OMG! I remember reading about this probable forecast

Friday

for today in the Midwest when checking yesterday for any threatening weather in my region (eastern Great Lakes). There was a tornado warning Wednesday not far from me and we've had some bad thunderstorms here this past week so I've been checking weather to the West of us since westerly winds often bring storms this way.

Hope people stay safe. From what I read, It was expected to get really bad in the Midwest today.
