All day today and parts of tomorrow look to bring some severe weather to parts of the Midwest and Northern United States. Barometric pressure is so low, that it could be close to that of a category 2 hurricane.

The current winds as of 2:45 PM are between 25 and 50 MPH in many of the northern states today.

Here are the latest approximate wind speeds as of 2:45 PM:
Chicago, IL – 41 MPH
Columbus, OH – 33 MPH
Cincinnati, OH – 36 MPH
Indianapolis, IN – 31 MPH
Louisville, KY – 15 MPH

Wind speeds may reach up to 60 MPH, and rain is expected to continue for much of the day, especially in Kentucky, Ohio, Indian, and Michigan.

Barometric pressures are expected to drop close to 955 mb tonight in portions of the Northern US, and Southern Canada. Much of the area is expected to experience close to record winds. There are many flights that have already been canceled and hundreds more that have long delays. Delays may continue into Wednesday evening in some areas.
