The Chicago area could be in for multiple rounds of severe weather in coming days, with heavy rain, gusty winds and even tornadoes possible.

A tornado watch was still in effect until 11 p.m. Friday for Cook County and northern Illinois, but the severe weather mainly stayed northwest of the Chicago area thanks to a line of cool, dense air that broke the storms up.

Chicago weather remains unsettled heading into the weekend, with a severe storm threat Friday evening that brings the possibility of tornadoes and flooding.
