Where to find cooling centers in the suburbs during the heat warning
An extreme-heat warning is active in most of Illinois until 8 p.m. Wednesday, and weather and town officials are encouraging people to stay indoors and in air-conditioned environments whenever possible.
Cooling centers are available throughout the suburbs, and ComEd is providing cooling buses equipped with air conditioning for anyone affected by the power outages caused by Monday's supercell storm.
