Could be a stormy week ahead for the Illinois Valley

After a quiet July 4th weekend weather wise, the work week could be a lot different.

The Illinois Valley is under a “marginal risk” for severe weather Tuesday night and Wednesday. Thursday could be the best chance for widespread storms with the risk elevated to “slight.”

Once the work week is over, the threat of rain is gone and the weekend should be sunny and dry with high temperatures in the low 80s.
