My belief is, if enough people did just a little to help each other, the world might just be a better place some day. Pay it forward. Be kind to each other. Love one another. ❤️ #BeKind

Warm, dry conditions will persist through the end of the week, though onshore winds will keep temperatures lower near the lake. #ILwx #INwx

Warm and breezy conditions are expected to start the week with more storm chances Monday and Tuesday, some of which could be severe at times. Cooler conditions return behind a cold front for the middle of the week. #ILwx #INwx

Congratulations to Artemis II on a successful mission! You captured the wonders of space and our planet beautifully, taking iPhone photography to new heights, and we’re grateful you shared it with the world. Your work continues to inspire us all to think different. Welcome home!

Job well done @NASAArtemis. You made a nation and world proud. Space exploration is back. Welcome home Ingenuity. @nasa @NASA_Orion

Welcome home Reid, Victor, Christina, and Jeremy! 🫶 The Artemis II astronauts have splashed down at 8:07pm ET (0007 UTC April 11), bringing their historic 10-day mission around the Moon to an end.

There is an increasing threat for flash flooding tonight as waves of torrential rain falls over saturated ground. The most widespread and heaviest rainfall is expected from about 10 PM to 4 AM CDT. #ILwx #INwx

[1:48p 3/30] Scattered t-storms will affect parts of the region tonight . A few may be strong to severe with wind damage & hail. Locally, locations near/N of I-80 are more favored, & particularly locations w/in yellow shading on map (severe weather threat level 2/5). #ILwx #INwx

Dry weather persists through midweek, with the next chance for showers on Thursday. Seasonably cool weather continues Monday, followed by warming conditions into midweek. #ILwx #INwx

Here at the Storm Prediction Center, we dig deep into the data to do the best possible analysis of the storm threat. Even in 2026, this sometimes involves putting pencil to paper to do hand surface analysis. This is what the morning map looks like today.

Severe storms continue tonight. The main risk from southern La Salle to Valparaiso remains damaging winds and hail. Whereas all severe hazards are possible, including tornadoes, to the south. #ILwx #INwx

Multiple rounds of severe storms may move through the general region Tuesday afternoon into early Wednesday morning. All hazards including tornadoes may occur with the most intense storms, especially near a warm front. Stay up to date on the forecast! #ILwx #INwx

Daylight Saving Time is always a good reminder to pay attention to your sleep. 💤 I love checking my sleep score each morning. It’s a simple, powerful way to get insights that keep me on track for better rest right from my wrist.

Fog will continue to thicken this evening and become dense overnight, with visibility dropping below ½ of a mile. The fog may continue through much of Thursday especially across parts of northeastern Illinois. When traveling, use low beam lights and keep safe following distances!
