Wild Weather at Wrigley Field

A powerful line of thunderstorms raked the Chicago area last night with winds to hurricane-force. The storms prompted an evacuation of the concourse at Wrigley Field when a tornado warning was issued and sirens sounded. No tornadoes were reported, but strong winds and torrential rain swept through the stadium.

The weather disturbance that triggered those storms will pass through our area this evening, and may set off severe weather here (see our latest forecast for more info).
