Severe thunderstorm warning issued – West of the I


by Darren Hillock.

The National Weather Service has issued a severe thunderstorm warning for an area of ​​Wisconsin that includes Kenosha County.

The warning is set to be in effect until 5:15 pm

The storm the NWS is tracking is moving west at about 55 mph. Wind gusts to 60 mph and nickel-sized hail have been associated with this storm.

Says the NWS: This is issued when either a severe thunderstorm is indicated by the WSR-88D radar or a spotter reports a thunderstorm producing hail one inch or larger in diameter and/or winds equal or exceed 58 miles an hour; therefore, people in the affected area should seek safe shelter immediately. Severe thunderstorms can produce tornadoes with little or no advance warning.”
