Latest Chicago Weather Forecast
CHICAGO (CBS) -- Snow and bitter cold will be coming later in the week, but on Monday, look for another day with unseasonable temperatures in the 40s.
CBS 2 Meteorologist Megan Glaros says every part of the Chicago area should hit the mid- to upper 40s on Monday, with partly sunny skies. The forecast high is 47 degrees, with an overnight low of 32.
Temperatures on Tuesday will climb to a high of 52, more than 20 degrees above average. The high on Wednesday remains a comfortable 48.
But by Thursday morning, a cold front will slide through, and it will really start to feel like January. Snow is likely to come on Thursday, with a high of only 28, and a low of 14.
And if you put your hat and gloves back in the mothball chest, you'll be sorry on Friday. The high is only 22 degrees, with a low of 15.
But it's all relative. You might recall on Jan. 15, 2009 – three years ago this coming Sunday – the high for the day was minus 2 degrees, and the overnight low crashed to minus 15. The forecast high for the same day three years later is a comparatively tropical 30.
