Aurora experiences significant severe weather during the Midwestern spring and summer storm seasons, often seeing damaging hail from squall lines moving east from the plains. Notable events include the April 2023 severe weather outbreak that brought large hail and high winds to the Fox Valley region. The area is prone to rapid storm development fueled by Lake Michigan lake breeze boundaries interacting with synoptic fronts.
