We even got some excessive wind in Chicagoland, which was obviously from the hurricane, because it was coming from the east. Normally, the wind here comes from the west.

Reminds me of youtuber LGR's latest video, he didn't prepare much because the storms don't normally reach that far inland, and unfortunately he had a lot of his collection damaged because 2 massive trees sliced his house clean in half. Makes me think that the midwest will soon get more populated due to its position away from coastlines

I wonder how deep inland hurricanes will affect the production of tornadoes up here (for good or ill).

Tornados seems to be moving eastward, so really the worst of the weather so far is hitting that side of the US
