Chicago Weather: Clearing Skies Tuesday Night

CHICAGO (CBS) -- After a low of 68 Tuesday night with mostly clear conditions, Wednesday begins partly sunny and mild with southwest winds increasing throughout the day.

This flow will pull muggy air our way. The high for Wednesday is 87.

There is a late-day storm chance near the Wisconsin state line, and better storm coverage across much of Wisconsin.

But a few storms may cross the line into the northernmost part of the Chicago area.

Storm chances increase Wednesday night and especially on Thursday as multiple rounds of rain move through.

Strong or severe storms are possible from late day Wednesday through Thursday evening.

The high for Thursday is 84.
