"Stormy Weather Alert: Beyoncé's Soldier Field Concert in Chicago Faces Severe Weather Threat"
[!CDATA[Beyoncé is scheduled to perform at Soldier Field on Thursday night in Chicago. The weather forecast predicts a possibility of isolated storms between 4 and 9 p.m., with the main threat being large hail. The tornado threat is low but not zero, with much of the Chicago area under a Level 3 threat of severe weather. The far south and southwest suburbs are at a Level 2 risk, while southern Wisconsin and east across the lake into Michigan face a higher risk. If storms occur, they are likely to develop over Cook or DuPage counties and move quickly to the northeast. The record high for Thursday is 91 degrees, with some areas possibly reaching 92 degrees, along with high humidity. Beyoncé's "COWBOY CARTER TOUR" is scheduled to start at 7 p.m. at Soldier Field on Thursday. However, if there is lightning in the area, it could impact the concert. The following day, Friday, is expected to be very windy with a high risk of spreading brushfires, as winds could gust above 45 mph. High temperatures on Friday will be in the mid to upper 80s. Indiana has opened relief fund applications after deadly storms hit the area.]]
