Severe winds and storms overnight left a trail of damage across the Chicago area and in parts of Illinois. The far west suburbs followed tornado warnings in Dupage, Kendall, Kane, and Dekalb counties.

Barn owner Scott Thorp said he was still awake when the storm hit and was not expecting to come out to what he saw.

Many communities will have a lot of clean-up ahead in the coming hours, especially as the sun comes up and the damage becomes more visible.
