Storms north of Chicago start the weekend
CHICAGO (CBS) — A disturbance racing our way from Wisconsin will bring scattered rain and a few thunderstorms to the area between 10 p.m. and 2 a.m. Friday night.
The storms are not expected to be severe but may contain lightning and wind gusts up to 40 miles per hour.
The rain will exit the area long before sunrise on Saturday, with a gorgeous weekend expected behind it.
Gusty winds are in the forecast for Saturday and Mother's Day, eventually pushing Sunday temperatures to 80 degrees.
