Let's take a deep dive into how Chicago's summer 2025 is stacking up against previous years when it comes to the heat.

Chicagoans can expect mild and pleasant weather to start the week before a surge of dangerous heat midweek.

A powerful series of undersea quakes, including a 7.4 magnitude tremor, struck off Russia’s Kamchatka Peninsula on Sunday, triggering tsunami warnings.

Sunday brings another round of showers across the area, but the real concern is the oppressive heat that’s coming later this week.

At least 20 people were stranded Saturday evening after floodwaters surrounded a building in Chevy Chase as severe storms swept through the D.C. area, officials said.

Expected storm system beginning to decay as it approaches the Chicago area. Downpours appear to be the main threat.

The driver appeared startled and fortunately not injured.

Cooler weather today will give way to storms on Saturday before intense heat and humidity return next week.

Showers and storms return to the area this weekend, especially on Saturday.
