CHICAGO (CBS) — Gusty winds and breaking waves on the lakefront settle overnight as a cool high-pressure system slides into place. 

This will lead to calm winds and a brisk start Tuesday morning, with lows outside of Chicago in the 40s.

A quick warming trend dominates the forecast for the rest of the week, eventually bringing highs in the 90s on Father's Day and even warmer record-high temperatures next Monday.
