Tornadoes and thunderstorms swept through a 300-mile stretch of Illinois and other midwestern states, killing at least five people, damaging hundreds of homes and disrupting air travel at O’Hare International Airport.
More than 230 flights were canceled at O’Hare and more than two dozen were delayed at Midway, according to the Chicago Department of Aviation. Flight delays of several hours were expected to continue through midnight at O’Hare as a storm watch was posted until 8 a.m. Central time tomorrow.
