One of three potentially severe rounds of storms expected to hit the Chicago area Tuesday arrived during the morning and afternoon hours, bringing damaging hail, along with the threat of fierce winds and lightning.

But as that round makes it way out of the region, two more could still set up.

Watches and warning remain in effect across several suburbs and the city, but there's still some uncertainty surrounding what could come next.

A second round of severe weather could potentially set up for late Tuesday afternoon and into the evening, though "there remains considerable uncertainty" surrounding whether or not this round will in fact develop. If storm do develop, "all modes of severe weather would be possible," particularly in northern and western portions of the area.

So it's important to stay alert and be ready for what could happen next.
