Description

Chicago’s still reeling from yesterday’s brutal storms—gusts up to 82 mph tore through Waukegan and O’Hare, dousing the city in rain and chaos. Trees fell, streets flooded, and power went out across neighborhoods like Chicago Heights and the South Side. A contractor vanished while working in a sewer in Downers Grove, though his coworker was found safe. Weather crews are scouring southern Cook and DuPage counties for tornado signs. The Red Cross has opened shelters in Steger and Gurnee, handing out food, power, and rest to displaced residents. Officials urge caution: stay away from downed lines, report hazards, and drive carefully through flooded zones. Normalcy? It’s still a ways off.
