Severe Weather Expected in Chicago Following Last Week's Damaging Storms
US · Published Jun 15, 2026
Chicago is bracing for another round of severe weather this week, with strong to severe storms forecasted for Tuesday and Wednesday.
According to the National Weather Service, Wednesday poses a higher risk of damaging storms and significant rainfall.

Why It's Important?

The upcoming storms could exacerbate the damage already caused by last week's severe weather. Residents should prepare for strong winds, heavy rainfall, and potential flooding. The city is still recovering from the previous storms, which left thousands without power and caused significant damage to trees and infrastructure. With nearly 10,000 trees reported as safety concerns and ongoing power restoration efforts, additional severe weather could delay recovery and pose further risks to public safety.
