Shelf cloud rolls through northern Illinois

DIXON, Ill. (CBS, KYMA/KECY) - Timelapse footage captured an ominous view of a shelf cloud rolling through northern Illinois as severe storms hit the region Friday.

Nick Albers, who shot this footage, told Storyful it was filmed just east of Dixon Friday evening.

"That shelf was pretty spectacular in its many forms. No need to go to Iowa when you can sit back, relax and see this roll in," Albers said in a post on X.

The National Weather Service said severe thunderstorms could bring damaging winds, heavy rain and the risk of tornados.
