Some showers are expected to linger around the area through the morning, Butler said.

The risk for severe weather begins around 4 p.m. as heat and humidity build throughout the day, Butler said.

Lollapalooza attendees are urged to have access to weather alerts in the case any watches or warnings are issued.
