Severe weather possible today; winter back for weekend

The crazy, and sometimes amazing weather pattern this week changes again today and this weekend. Lightning and thunderstorms appeared early Friday and the afternoon could bring a storm system, with it a chance for severe thunderstorms, and behind it a cold front – making for a chilly weekend.

Illinois and Indiana could experience hazardous weather this (Friday) evening. The risk changes as one moves across the states.

NWS said Friday’s storm carries with it a chance for damaging straight line winds, large hail and the possibility for isolated tornadoes.

After the storm system moves out, temperatures will fall below average. A cold weekend is in store with a wintry mix predicted for Saturday and Sunday.
