\"Chicago <\/p>\n

CHICAGO<\/strong> – Chicago’s January thaw continues in full swing today with highs once again in the 40s. However, it won\u2019t be as sunny.\u00a0<\/p>\n

This morning, fog has been light so far and drizzle is occurring where it was expected across far-northern portions of our area.\u00a0<\/p>\n

While a brief light rain shower is possible later today, most of the time it will simply be cloudy. Tonight will be mostly cloudy with a chance for some fog once again. Lows will be close to freezing.\u00a0<\/p>\n

What’s next:<\/p>\n

Tomorrow will feature clearing skies and mild temperatures with highs ranging from the low 40s far north to around 50 far south.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Thursday will likely be the warmest day of the week when low 50s are likely. Rain is now likely to arrive by the afternoon hours and end Friday morning.\u00a0<\/p>\n

With the earlier arrival of the rain, temperatures on Friday will be slightly cooler-reaching the low 40s. A second storm system arrives Saturday and will feature a mix of light rain and wet snow with accumulation of up to 1 inch of snow possible. This is certainly not a big snowstorm.\u00a0<\/p>\n

On Sunday it will be partly cloudy and colder with highs around freezing. By Monday temperatures will climb to 40\u00b0 again.<\/p>\n
