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

nexrad close-ups
Note: This describes the April 19, 1996 tornado. For information about the
March 12, 2006 tornadoes, please look here.
6:30pm CDT (4/19/96) -
The same supercell that caused
the Jacksonville tornado, but
roughly 15 minutes later.
A well-defined hook echo shown here in the LSX reflectivities.
Two mesocyclones are visible in this image. The northern signature
was embedded in a supercell which spawned a tornado that
struck Bloomington,
Illinois. The mesocyclone associated with the
Springfield tornado was
not as well defined at this time.
