Advisory

Cold Air Funnels Sighted Over Central Illinois

.FUNNELS SIGHTED OVER CENTRAL ILLINOIS...

Atmospheric conditions exist across central Illinois that favor
the formation of funnel clouds. These funnels are normally not
associated with thunderstorms. They form out of the bottom of
clouds, spin, and dip down to within several hundred feet of the
ground.

The funnels may last for several minutes, occur a number of times
during the afternoon, and remain in the same general area. They
normally dissipate completely toward sunset.

In rare instances, these funnels may briefly touch down. Stay alert and
be prepared to move quickly to a safe shelter if a funnel cloud
approaches the ground.
