Mild Friday afternoon with scattered showers later tonight for Chicago area
Chicagoans are experiencing a windy and mild Friday afternoon, with highs in the mid to upper 50s.
Building clouds ahead of the next system will bring scattered rain showers tonight, especially between 10 p.m. and midnight. These will be light and not well organized.
The highlight of this frontal passage will be the chilly changes for Saturday. Winds become northwesterly and then northerly, pulling in colder air. This is a dry air mass, so we expect plenty of chilly sunshine for Saturday. It will be especially cooler by the lake.
Sunday will be breezy and wet. A slow-moving system will be overhead, creating light, persistent rain all day. Minor amounts are expected, with most areas ending up with .10 to .30 inches.
