Right now
The most recent data we hold from SPC arrived 2 minutes ago, and this point is not in it. We record detections, not passes: an absence is not proof that nothing is there.
Reported by SPC 88 days ago.
What the source measured
SPC reported: Wind UNK kt near Ashmore, Coles, IL. About a mile or more of powerlines down along IL16 from Ashmore eastbound... as well as several downed trees and snapped power poles and branches. (ILX)
Urban PEI: 39,309 within a heuristic 50 km radius; not unique people.
How we know
10 recorded sources include SPC; independence is not established by this count.
Our own score for this event is 28 out of 100.
This is our versioned heuristic index, not source severity or a calibrated probability. Urban PEI does not count unique people.
Computed under scoring rules v1. Rows carrying other versions were judged by different rules and are not directly comparable.
