CHICAGO (CBS) -- Hundreds of brave souls will jump into the icy waters of Lake Michigan all for a good cause this weekend.

The 23rd annual Chicago Polar Plunge - benefiting the Special Olympics - takes place this Sunday at North Avenue Beach.

Thousands of participants expected at the 23rd Chicago Polar Plunge Sunday 03:04

There's still some time to register if you feel like taking the plunge.

The good news - once we get through the weather Friday, Sunday is looking pretty mild. But that lake water is still going to feel frigid.
