Reader Chad Hilchey sent in this picture at 11:14 p.m. of a funnel cloud spotted in Oakfield.
A dispatcher who worked overnight had heard nothing of a possible funnel cloud and said there wasn't a single report of storm damage over night. "Not even a tree limb down," he said.
There was a severe thunderstorm watch overnight, which was lifted at 6 a.m.
UPDATE: Chad clarifies that he took the picture around 6:30 p.m.
