## Caption

Parts of the Chicago area and Illinois will be under a heightened risk for tornadoes as severe weather threatens a swath of the state Tuesday. But just how high is that risk?⁠
⁠
The biggest threat for tornadoes sits south of Interstate 80 and extends into northwest Indiana, where several counties are now under a "moderate" risk for severe weather, a level four out of five. Such a high risk level is rarely seen in the Chicago area.⁠
⁠
The National Weather Service has issued a tornado watch for LaSalle, Grundy and Kankakee counties in Illinois along with Jasper and Newton counties in Indiana until 11 p.m.⁠
