⚠️Traffic Advisory⚠️
Due to excessive heat, the right lane of I-72 westbound at milepost 96.5, just before the Scheels exit, is buckling. The Illinois Department of Transportation is on scene. Please slow down and drive with caution.
All of Illinois is either under a heat advisory or an extreme heat watch. This kind of weather can cause heat illnesses or even be fatal. Plan ahead to stay cool, and visit a cooling center, mall, or large store if your home isn't keeping you cool enough.

Extreme heat for one day is one thing. To have it for three or more days especially dangerous because the body doesn't get a break.
Stay cool this week!
And check out where local #coolingcenters are located, and what hours they are open. keepcool.illinois.gov#ILWx#HeatSafety
Dangerous to record setting heat will expand across the eastern two-thirds of the nation this week. Be sure to follow your local forecast information from weather.gov and heat.gov
Supercell storms continue to track eastward near the I-64 corridor with primarily a tornado threat. Later on this evening a boundary shifts southward helping organize storms into a line. Training heavy rain may result in flooding issues.
Severe #thunderstorm and #tornado warnings are popping up in southern @illinois. Please monitor your local weather conditions and forecast and be ready to head to your safe spot at any moment.
