What happened: The National Weather Service confirmed tornadoes near O'Hare Airport and multiple suburbs, including Campton Hills, Countryside, Hodgkins and Huntley. In Chicago, the threat caused the city to sound the rarely used tornado sirens. Passengers at both O'Hare and Midway airport were forced to seek shelter, while spectators at the Chicago Fire match evacuated the stands.
