Tornado Terror Strikes Chicago
Eleven Twisters Hit Region
Residents Face Aftermath
CHICAGO, Ill. -- The Windy City has endured a whirlwind of destruction as at least 11 tornadoes tore through parts of the Chicago area Wednesday. Amidst another approaching storm cell, the National Weather Service (NWS) confirmed the unprecedented swarm of twisters.
As NBC 5 Storm Team Chief Meteorologist Brant Miller broadcast live footage of the storms hovering over O'Hare International Airport, the ominous threat unfolded. By 10 pm, the tornado risk subsided in Cook County, including Chicago, according to the NWS.
But the storm's fury left a trail of devastation in its wake. Chicago residents awoke to power outages, transportation disruptions, and widespread storm damage. The city is still reeling from a previous round of storms on Sunday night, which spawned three EF-0 tornadoes.
As the cleanup efforts begin, the resilient spirit of Chicagoans shines through. In the face of adversity, they are determined to rebuild and emerge stronger than ever before. The spirit of the city remains unyielding, proving once again that even in the face of nature's wrath, the human will to overcome endures.
