Chicago Weather: Severe Storm Risk Diminished

CHICAGO (CBS) -- The risk of severe storms for Sunday evening has diminished.

A scattered strong storm can't be ruled out for late Sunday night -- after 10 a.m. and before 3 a.m. -- but the severe risk overall has dropped.

Look for gusty winds late Sunday into the early night. It will be drying out for most of Labor Day with highs in the 70s then cooler with better chances of rain for the middle of next week.

Temperatures will fall late Monday. Expect only 60s for the highs Thursday.
