...Strong to severe storms moving over the area through early 
afternoon...

A line of storms just moving off of the Wisconsin and Illinois
coastline over Lake Michigan at 930 am EDT will continue to advance
toward the area through early this afternoon. 

The line is expected to arrive at the lakeshore around 11 am, and
then continue moving east over the area through mid afternoon, before
exiting east of U.S.-127 between 3 and 4 pm. This line is expected 
to increase in intensity a bit as it approaches the area. 

The main threat with this line will be wind gusts of 50 to 60+ mph.
Some large hail will also be possible, and an isolated tornado can
not be ruled out.
