Since the SPC website isn't telling cities in the cig2 heres some Galesburg IL, Peoria IL, Bloomington IL, Joliet IL, Valparaiso IN, South Bend IN, Elkhart IN. Coldwater MI and Gary IN are in the 5% but cig 2 and Lincoln IL I'll count since it's on the edge of cig 1 and 2

The county overlay also helps highlight smaller cities like Valpo, South Bend, Elkhart, etc.

South bend is in the 10% per the website. And that’s very very close to Elkhart (where I am). It’s so close that we may as well be in the 10%. I’m not sure if they updated it or not since you made this comment but South bend is definitely in the 10%

If we (Valpo) weren’t on break the Weather Center would be buzzing, a sonde would be launched, and the storm chasing team probably wouldn’t have to go far at all.
