Isolated but severe storms possible in Chicago area Sunday evening
CHICAGO (CBS) -- Wind flow off the chilly lake is keeping low clouds and stable air in place from Chicago to the Wisconsin line. Air temperatures are struggling due to that marine layer lingering onshore.
At the same time, warm winds have pulled unstable air to the west and southwest counties in the Chicago area. Isolated storms could materialize Sunday evening in that warm sector. Some could be strong or severe, and rotation is possible.
Waves of thunderstorms could move into the area between 1 a.m. and 5 a.m.
On Saturday night, the southwest suburbs picked up from 1 inch to 2.5 inches of rain, so "training" downpours and thunderstorms could create some localized flooding.
The strongest cells could contain damaging winds and hail.
Forecast
SUNDAY EVENING: Isolated storm chance
OVERNIGHT: Waves of rain and thunderstorms late. Mild. LOW: 62
MONDAY: Leftover shower chance. HIGH: 72
