It would be a good idea to keep an eye on the skies in Missouri and Illinois Sunday as storms are forecast to move through both states bringing with them golf ball-sized hail, 70mph winds and even a few tornadoes.

As storms moved through Missouri this weekend, the St. Louis airport has officially confirmed that hurricane-force winds were recorded there.

It was quite a wind event in Missouri, Illinois and Iowa today as winds equaling a category 1 hurricane were reported in many locations.

It's no secret that Chicago has the nickname the "Windy City" for a reason. But, did you know there is a city in Missouri that is windier? It's just been ranked as one of the top 25 windiest cities in America.

If you have any loose objects in the yard, you might want to tie them down. Both Missouri and Illinois are under wind advisories with gusts of up to 50 mph expected.

Never underestimate the wind in Illinois. Doubt me? Watch a video that shows what happened when a gust took down a power line causing a major power outage in northern Illinois early Tuesday morning.

I've never seen a tornado, but I've been near a few. I prefer the much less dangerous type of wind events which is why I love this huge dust devil that was captured on video chewing up the dirt in a Missouri farm field.

We've just passed the 6th anniversary of one of the most devastating wind events in our area. Near hurricane force winds brought trees down and shut down power for days in Quincy.

Forecasters are warning 63 million people in the central U.S. to have an eye out for bad weather.

A storm that swept through Missouri left thousands without power across the state early Tuesday.
