Here's another one, though this one looks to track more into central IL with a larger rain shield for Chicagoland. We're not out of the woods yet, the same pattern is expected to remain through the weekend with more t-storms, potential severe, and flooding. #ilwx

Here we go again... Another complex of severe thunderstorms is approaching Chicagoland. Same as yesterday, damaging winds and a brief tornado can't be ruled out. #ilwx #Chicago

MCS has organized a bit more as it enters the I-39 corridor. Expect 60-80 mph winds as it crosses through the metro over the next couple hrs. Can't rule out an embedded brief tornado. #ilwx #Chicago

A complex of severe t-storms has triggered a severe t-storm watch until 2pm for the Chicagoland area. We'll have to see if this reorganizes as it crosses northern IL. Right now it's a bit of a mess, however all hazards remain possible. #ilwx #Chicago

Steam is home to many tools and utilities alongside the trove of actual PC games, many of which can improve performance, aid in content creation, or fuel your streaming ambitions. Here are five non-game Steam apps I always keep on my PC ⤵️

The 5 Steam apps I can't live without aren't games — My favorites are for streaming, design, performance, and more

Steam has more than 100,000 games it wants to sell you, but some of the platform's most popular listings aren't games at all. Here are five that I don't regret adding to my collection.
