Memorial Day Weekend has arrived the unofficial kickoff to summer! Before firing up the grill for the season, make sure it’s clean and ready to go.

Roughly 1 out of every 5 grill fires involves grills that haven’t been cleaned. Grease buildup can quickly turn dangerous.

Take a few minutes to clean your grill, check propane connections, and keep anything flammable away from the cooking area. Stay safe and enjoy the holiday weekend! πŸ”₯πŸ”β˜€οΈ

A cold front will move through Tuesday and bring with it additional chances for showers and thunderstorms. A few storms could be strong to severe, especially during the afternoon hours, but uncertainty remains on whether or not the overnight/early morning storms will be enough to limit or prevent afternoon storm development, with the greatest potential south of I-55 and I-80. Stay tuned for forecast updates!

950pm: The squall line is progressing through Chicagoland tonight. South of I-80 has the main spin up tornadoes threat at the time and I don't see any areas of rotation across Chicagoland north of I-80 currently. Pockets of strong wind gusts are along this line as well. Once it moves through the tornado risk is over.
