Residents and business across Will, Kendall and Grundy counties spent the weekend cleaning up from a massive series of storms that caused widespread property damage and knocked out power to nearly 60,000 ComEd customers in those areas.

The area was also blanketed under intense heat as temperatures climbmed back into the mid and upper 90s.
