My heart is shattered. My best friend for over 14 years passed away this morning. Ajax gave me joy and unconditional always. I’ll love him always and forever. What an incredible dog he was. I’ve been so lucky to have him in my life, words can’t describe this loss.

Thanks Rob. This was one of my favorite days we had together. Loved the time we worked together my friend.

OMG Friends! Only one day left before I retire. I'm guessing the crew here at NBC have something cooking to send me on my merry way. If you have the chance to tune in at some point between 4 and 7 am tomorrow that would be great. @nbcchicago

That's so nice of you, Iden. However, you'd better watch the next 3 days, not weeks because this Friday will be my last day on the air. Thanks for your support over the years. :)

I need to make sure I watch @nbcchicago every morning for the next 2/3 weeks to see the living legend and 🐐 @AndyAvalosNBC5 end his run as meteorologist for Chi! What a legend!

Good morning, Lisa. Even if the storms themselves weaken later in the day, the outflow and energy are likely to make it here and produce storms locally late afternoon or evening.

Blazing heat and humidity on the way today. Mostly sunny skies become partly cloudy with breezy, extremely hot and humid conditions. Highs reach the low to mid 90s, but will feel like 100 to 105! A few storms possible during the day, but most likely this evening. @nbcchicago
