Looks like the storms behind it are beginning to break up.

We'll have another round of storms in the early morning hours. Most of them should stay just below severe level, but I wouldn't be surprised if one or 2 become severe.

VK what's happening in the late night/ early AM hours in Knox? I see some stuff on the radar. Had some trees fall and barely miss our house today and I'm still a bit paranoid about another hard-hitting storm.
