...FUNNEL CLOUDS SIGHTED NEAR STREATOR AT 335 PM...
Livingston County Sheriff reported receiving several reports of
funnel clouds from the Streator area around 335 pm CDT.
Atmospheric conditions exist across the area today that favor the
possible formation of weak circulations, along existing thunderstorm
outflow boundaries. Some of these circulations are occurring
underneath developing showers and thunderstorms, where a funnel
cloud may develop. Once the rain begins, the funnel cloud dissipates.
Low hanging clouds can also appear to dip up and down at times, but
they will not show signs of any rapid rotation. An actual funnel
cloud will exhibit spinning in a counter clockwise direction.
In rare instances, these funnels may briefly touch down. Stay alert,
and be prepared to move to a safe shelter, if a funnel cloud
approaches the ground.
