Warmer conditions continue with highs in the 50s mid-week
CHICAGO (CBS)-- Temperatures in the 40s and 50s are here to stay for the week, with near-record temperatures possible on Thursday and Friday.
Monday's highs will be near 41 degrees with mostly cloudy skies.
The first 9 to 10 days of February may be one of the warmest, if not the warmest, on record. That pattern is expected to change after Feb.10 to more-seasonable to colder-than-normal temperatures, according to the National Weather Service.
A Dense Fog Advisory was in effect for far northeast Illinois until 10 a.m. This includes far northern Cook County. Fog could freeze, leading to slick roadways.
A warming trend continues this week, with showers late in the week. Temperatures will climb to near 60 degrees by Thursday.
