CHICAGO (CBS) -- A tornado warning was issued and later canceled Wednesday afternoon in Winnebago County far northwest of Chicago.
The National Weather Service reported a tornado warning was issued for a wall cloud in northern Winnebago County that was low to the ground and exhibiting rotation, making for a threat of a tornado at any moment. The area of concern was near Rockton and Roscoe.
The tornado warning was canceled before 2 p.m. as the rotation weakened.
