## Resource

Chicago braces for a brutal Wednesday with two rounds of severe storms—first between 8 AM and 1 PM, bringing heavy rain, hail, and 75-mph winds south of I-80, then a deadlier second wave from 3 PM to 9 PM, primed for tornadoes, damaging winds, and flash flooding. Compounding the danger: thousands still recovering from last week’s tornadoes that hit northern Illinois and northwest Indiana, leaving over 1,400 without power in Merrillville and beyond.
