Forecast Discussion

From Meteorologist Zach Hatcher

Today: A cold front will move through keeping showers and storms possible throughout the day. Some storms may be strong with hail, gusty winds and brief heavy downpours, but the better chances of stronger storms will be closer to Interstate 80. Cold air funnel clouds may also be possible late in the afternoon as an upper-level low moves into northern Illinois and interacts with a surface trough. Temperatures will be in the mid to upper 70s with breezy winds from the southwest at 10-20 mph with gusts around 30 mph. Stronger winds are possible in thunderstorms. Temperatures will fall into the lower 60s overnight with storms ending and skies clearing.

Wednesday: High pressure will shift into the region with rain chances kept at a minimum. Temperatures will climb into the mid-80s under partly cloudy skies as winds become light and variable. Overnight temps will fall to the middle 60s.
