To: "go@blogger.com" <go@blogger.com>, Chicago severe weather <chicagosevereweather@googlegroups.com>

This morning's fog is finally clearing out, and we should jump a quick 10 degrees in most spots. That and other factors still line up for a good chance of strong to severe storms tonight. The only update is that the timing has been pushed back somewhat -- the most likely window is now after the rush hour and sunset. Strong storms are already present in northern and northwestern Illinois but the main threat in the Chicago area is 9pm to midnight. The strongest storms -- those most likely to produce tornadoes and other severe weather -- will probably stay to our west and south, but high winds, hail, and even a tornado is possible in our area tonight. 

Tomorrow, very strong winds -- gusting 50-60 mph -- could also disrupt the airports.
