NOTE: We've guessed that you're not using a client that supports colored tables and have tried to compensate. Low graphics mode looks much better on clients that do... we recommend switching to Netscape 3.0 or Microsoft Internet Explorer.

A pair of mesocyclones were associated with the supercells displayed in the reflectivity panel. The I-72 supercell was moving ever closer towards Champaign/Urbana.
