Wasn't going to mention the wildfire smoke, but PM2.5 is moderate here (87 last I looked) so between the temperature, humidity, and air quality, it'll be an indoor day for elderly asthmatics and those with medical conditions.

It's only 95 degrees here in my central Illinois location.

Or, as they say in the land of high humidity and "corn sweat"...

While watching TV, local weather interrupts. 🌪️ warning!

If you are near or north of Taylorville, IL (Christian County) or east of Vandalia, IL, a tornado warning has just been issued--moving east north of and along I-70.

Time to find a safe place.

Monitoring strong storms thru TV.

High winds and confirmed tornados in central Illinois. Springfield and Decatur areas, moving east
60-70 mph winds, with gusts to 80 mph, with storms moving just as rapidly.

If you are in the area, or traveling through this area, stay weather-aware.

This house is an abstract based on a 12 year old memory. But the historical Society didn't know where it might actually be. It's in normal Illinois near the ISU campus. it left such a strong spiritual impression I would think about it now and then, so I decided to paint it. Built in the early 1900s. I don't remember the way the trees behind looked, except they were seeming to try and grab the house. #Paranormal #CentralIllinois #FineArt #AbstractPainting
