Cover Story: In the following study, our aim is to determine how two quasi-linear convective systems (QLCS) are organized to establish the possible role of the city of Chicago, IL., USA, in modifying convective precipitation systems. Several multi-scale processes are uncovered that organize and modify convection over the Chicago metroplex. Two sequential QLCS (#1 and #2) were organized that propagated over Chicago, IL, USA, during an eight-hour period on 5–6 July 2018. The first squall line (QLCS #1) propagated from the southwest to the northeast while strengthening as it passed over the city, and the second (QLCS #2) propagated southeastwards and weakened as it passed over the city in association with a polar cold front. The city urban heat island likely modified both squall lines. View this paper
