— Turbulent weather Tuesday afternoon produced several funnel clouds, but none caused damage, according to the National Weather Service.

The National Weather Service office in Sullivan reported a funnel cloud near Sharon, as well as several between Janesville and Milton.

Eric Sorensen writes on the WREX weather blog that the storms were not big enough to produce anything substantial, but a few funnel clouds may be observed near some of the storms.

Thunderstorms will become likely again Wednesday, with a chance of lingering into Wednesday evening, according to the weather service.

Some of the thunderstorms will produce heavy rainfall, and flash flooding is possible.
