[August 03, 2009]  Thunderstorms that were over Iowa this morning are expected to weaken. However, regeneration of strong to severe thunderstorms will be possible late Monday afternoon over portions of western Illinois. Isolated tornadoes will be possible for the first couple of hours, followed by more of a threat of large hail and damaging wind. The chance for severe storms will shift eastward and cover all of central Illinois tonight, with large hail and damaging winds the main threats.

Another round of severe storms will be possible with additional storms that develop on Tuesday. After that, the main threat for severe thunderstorms should shift south and west, away from the area.

After a long absence, temperatures of 90-plus degrees are forecast to return to the Midwest this weekend.
