Good morning, weather watchers! This is your chilly Chicago forecast coming in hot... or rather, cold!
Buckle up for a seriously frigid weekend, folks. Tonight we're looking at temperatures plummeting to a bone-chilling 10 degrees, with wind chill values dropping to a teeth-chattering negative 5 degrees. West northwest winds will be whipping around at about 15 miles per hour, with gusts up to 20 miles per hour. Pack those extra layers!
Saturday brings some sunshine, but don't get too excited. We're only climbing to a high of 22 degrees, with wind chill still feeling like negative 5. Those west northwest winds will continue to dance around 10 to 15 miles per hour.
Sunday gets interesting with increasing cloud cover and a slight warm-up to 26 degrees. But wait, there's more excitement brewing - we've got a 40 percent chance of snow Sunday night, so keep those snow shovels ready!
The early week forecast looks like a winter wonderland preview, with continued chances of snow and temperatures hovering in the mid to upper 20s. Tuesday through Thursday will offer some sunny breaks, giving us a little hope amid the winter chill.
Pro tip: Layer up, drink something warm, and remember - Chicago winters are not for the faint of heart!
