Tonight will bring another opportunity to see the northern lights! The K Index is down slightly from Friday night, so it may not be as easy to see or as vibrant, but it's still worth taking a look! Wait until it's nice and dark outside and get away from city lights. Skies will be mostly clear with a low temperature dropping to around 50 degrees.
Breezy southerly winds develop on Sunday leading to a surge in temperatures. Afternoon highs are expected to climb to around 80 degrees! Skies will be mostly sunny to partly cloudy through the day, but after 5 p.m. we could see some scattered rain and thunderstorms. These will be isolated in nature, with one or two strong storms with hail and strong winds possible.
Additional showers will form in northern Illinois and meander northward by Monday afternoon, bringing us a rainy day, with rain sticking around through Monday night. Temperatures will be a roller coaster on Monday; highs will be in the 60s to near 70 by late morning, but by early afternoon winds will turn off the lake, and by 4-5 p.m., many places will have cooled back off to around 50 degrees.
Temperatures will be below average on Tuesday with highs stuck in the 50s near the lake (we will still see 60s inland).
Unsettled weather looks like it returns Thursday into Friday.
