Two rounds of rain and storms are possible in the Chicago area Friday, one of which could bring severe conditions to some locations.

According to the Storm Prediction Center, the Chicago area is currently at a “slight” risk of severe weather, the second of five classification categories the SPC uses.

"While damaging winds and hail are the primary threats an isolated tornado cannot be completely ruled out," according to the National Weather Service.
