00:00Bring David back in now with first alert weather and David it sounds like we have a couple of dicey
00:04days ahead.
00:04Oh David, alright. What is happening? David in Chicago area.
00:08It's like the middle of summer, even late summer here lately and tomorrow even hotter.
00:12We're talking about highs in the 90s and heat index values as high as 100.
00:16Oh my God.
00:16More concerning though is the threat of severe weather.
00:18Tomorrow, severe storms with hurricane force wind gusts, the main concern.
00:22On Thursday, severe storms are even more likely and unfortunately that's...
00:26Oh my God. Next two days are heat index 95 to 100 degrees.
00:29Wetness waves, severe storms, 75 miles per hour winds and 75 plus it's not 75 and Thursday we have severe
00:37storms as well like tornadoes.
00:39My God.
00:40When tornadoes become more likely than we've seen in some time.
00:43This all starts tomorrow. Here's the radar starting at about 2 p.m.
00:46My God. Where are you standing, bro? Oh my God.
00:50You got a screen.
00:51When a squall line of damaging severe storms blasts into...
00:54Whoa. Whoa. What is this?
00:56Because this screen is under the view.
00:58It could be in the Chicago area right as you're heading home from work and getting some errands done tomorrow
01:03evening.
01:04Oh my God. How they be doing this?
01:07The radar is clear. We've dried out temporarily.
01:09How they do this?
01:11What the hell?
01:12Some isolated storms that we saw earlier.
01:14But notice this southwest flow in the higher levels of the atmosphere bringing a few more...
01:18How?
01:19How is...
01:20Oh my God. I don't care about storms anymore.
01:23How do you do this?
01:24There's a severe weather outbreak ongoing in the northern plains right now.
01:26Where 105 different reports of wind damage have occurred...
01:30In Chicago.
01:31In the past 24 hours.
01:32Back here at home...
01:333, 2, 1, marginal.
01:352, slight.
01:363, enhance.
01:374, moderate.
01:385, high.
01:39Tomorrow the risk goes up.
01:403 out of 5 risk of mainly wind damage.
01:43On Thursday, we're right in the middle of the bullseye for another risk of numerous damaging storms.
01:48Thursday, it's possible that parts of our area could be upgraded to an even higher risk.
01:53So here's the new timeline.
01:54This is our latest high-resolution model.
01:56New for you.
01:57All right.
01:57New for you.
01:59All right.
01:59Let's see.
02:0010 o'clock.
02:01High-resolution model.
02:02What you're saying?
02:03Through the next several hours, there's an isolated storm that might develop.
02:07Not worried anymore about these being severe.
02:09Just a little brief heavy rain.
02:11Along with a little lake...
02:12Brief heavy rain and not slow.
02:15Fog possible.
02:15Tomorrow morning, this is all out of here.
02:17It's hot.
02:18It's humid.
02:18Plenty of sunshine through the day.
02:20But after 2 p.m.
02:21Oh, my God.
02:22Heavy rain.
02:23Here comes that big complex round number one of severe storms.
02:27Oh, my God.
02:28This is big one.
02:30You see?
02:30This is big one.
02:32Rain, rain, storms.
02:35Area.
02:35Any of these could have 75, 85 mile per hour wind gusts.
02:39We're hoping they lose a little punch as they move through.
02:42But new tonight, we're also getting more confident in additional rounds of storms.
02:46Not only at 2 p.m.
02:48Through 4 p.m.
02:48But maybe through 11 p.m.
02:50Notice the rain...
02:5111 p.m. also.
02:52Oh, my God.
02:53Wednesday, 10 p.m. to 11 p.m.
02:56...stays quite active with another bowing line of severe storms.
02:59That's indicative of possible wind damage blowing through at 10, 11 o'clock.
03:03And again, they have some rain.
03:06It has to do with tomorrow's.
03:07Now, Thursdays.
03:08We start off really hot and humid again.
03:10We're dry through much of the daytime.
03:12This looks like a little bit of a later...
03:13Hot and humid, but late at 7 p.m.
03:16...unfortunately, this model, which is doing the best job, only goes out 42 hours.
03:19So you can just see the beginning of that next event.
03:21Okay, only goes out 42 hours.
03:24So, all right.
03:25Mainly starting around 5, 6 p.m.
03:27And continuing through the rest of the evening.
03:29That's when the severe risk looks the greatest on Thursday.
03:31Oh, my God.
03:32Thursday and Friday also.
03:347 a.m. Friday.
03:36Oh, and there's also a risk of flash flooding.
03:383 to 4 inches of rain possible.
03:41Oh, my God.
03:423 to 4.
03:42...the next couple of days, depending on how these storms evolve.
03:45Weather alerts for hot, humid weather and severe storms the next couple of days.
03:48But humidity and temperatures drop after that.
03:51This is the 7-day forecast we have right now.
03:54And as in such, we are alert, alert.
03:57Windows are back open this weekend with low temperatures eventually making it back into the 50s.
04:02Thank you, man.
04:02This is good.
