Meteorologist Larry Mowry explains the difference between a severe weather watch and a warning. A car in the 7000-block of North Damen Avenue near Greenleaf Avenue in Rogers Park was crushed by a tree. City crews worked to remove it later Thursday morning after it fell on Melvin Cade's rental car, leaving it more like a pancake with its roof smashed into the seats. Cade said he heard the wind howling at around midnight. "I was sleeping, and I heard a, kinda like, a crash, but I sleep with the TV on so I wasn't sure if something was on TV," he said.
