The tornadic stretch of weather finally came to a hault yesterday.  After 23 consecutive days of tornadoes reported in the USA, we were tornado free today.  The Storm Prediction Center posts daily reports on their website of storm reports from across the country.  

Looking at the twister reports since May 22nd, there are many  storms that were not far from Chicago.  We live in an area where we have to be ready for severe weather.
