Edit: Eastern Nebraska is mostly calm EXCEPT we still have high winds. Western Iowa has several sightings of tornadoes by radar as the line of storms moves east.

(4,986 posts)We're a few hours east of you, and if the watch covers us, nothing will happen until after dark here....Although, the radar reports have it going north of where I am.
I was just outside, and it feels sultry; tornado like.... Right now, it's 73 degrees, 10 days before Christmas....in Iowa! This temperature is the highest in December ever on record, by a LOT.
Stay safe, OS!!
