Is it possble for hurricanes and tornadoes to get to Chicago?

Chicago cannot get hurricanes as it is too far from the ocean. It can get the extratropical remnants of hurricnaes, but by the time the make it that far they won't be much stronger than ordinary storm systems. Tornadoes, however, are quite possible in Chicago. They are fairly common in Illinois and contrary to popular belief tornadoes can and do hit major cities.
