These cells are within the warm sector of a storm system spinning over the Great Lakes.</p><p>This tornadic activity is right within the \u201cEnhanced Risk\u201d zone outlined by SPC earlier today with a tornado watch overlapping.  These storms were well predicted in advance and the warning processing through NWS and partners including online streamers has been superb hopefully limiting causalities.  Tornadoes in mid-February are quite rare in the Great Lakes, but the overall weather pattern is highly amplified with significant warmth east of the Rockies help to fuel the storms.</p>",
