CHICAGO (CBS) — The clouds that dominated the skies of Chicago Wednesday morning will give way to sunshine as the day goes on, as temperatures remain seasonal and comfortable.
CBS 2 Meteorologist Megan Glaros says as of 11:20 a.m., it was 62 in Waukegan and at O’Hare International Airport, 65 at Midway Airport, and 68 in Gary.
Cloud cover was entrenched in some areas, although blue and sunny skies were seen over the downtown area. By the dinner hour, sunshine will predominate as a cold front passes to the south.
Rain is falling in southern Illinois, but it will not affect the Chicago area, Glaros says.
The high Wednesday is 69, with a north-northeast wind of 10-15 mph.
Overnight, the low drops to 54, and conditions will remain much the same for the week to come, with a high of 66 on Thursday, 68 on Friday, 69 on Saturday, 70 on Sunday, 71 on Monday, and 69 on Tuesday.
