Good morning, Chicago! I'm your friendly neighborhood meteorologist here to break down what Mother Nature has in store for us this week.
Let's dive right in. Tonight, we're looking at a crystal clear sky with temperatures dipping down to a chilly 18 degrees. Expect a gentle west wind around 5 miles per hour - perfect for bundling up.
Sunday brings us some sunshine to chase away those winter blues. We'll see a high near 36 degrees with a light west wind that'll shift to an east southeast breeze in the afternoon. Think light jacket weather, folks.
Sunday night gets a bit more interesting as clouds start rolling in. Temperatures will hover around 30 degrees with an east southeast wind between 5 to 10 miles per hour, eventually turning south after midnight.
Monday brings a slight chance of showers between noon and 3 in the afternoon. We're looking at partly sunny skies and a high near 44 degrees. Winds will pick up from the south between 10 to 15 miles per hour with gusts up to 20 miles per hour.
Tuesday is our wet day - and I mean really wet. We've got a high chance of rain, possibly even a thunderstorm after noon. Temperatures will climb to around 51 degrees with a 90 percent chance of precipitation.
By Wednesday, rain continues with mostly cloudy skies and a high near 51 degrees. Things get interesting Wednesday night when we might see some snow before midnight, with temperatures dropping to around 28 degrees. Brace yourselves for a blustery evening!
Thursday gives us a break with sunny skies and a high near 42 degrees. Friday brings a chance of rain with temperatures similar to Thursday.
