The Chicago Tribune's John Smierciak, on his way back from covering the Bear's training camp in south suburban Bourbonnais, photographed these storms over farmland north of Beecher, Illinois. They are part of storm clusters which produced an unofficial rainfall of 5.50" in Joliet in just 90 minutes time!
