Chicago gets a clean, sunny reset Sunday after a chilly start, with temperatures reaching a high in the upper 40s to around 50. Light winds and a weak lake breeze are expected. No rain is expected, making this a solid day for a walk, errands or one last patio coffee before November remembers what it is.
The National Weather Service Chicago office calls for sunny skies and light north winds around 5 mph Sunday, followed by another mostly clear night. The city should dip to about 32 degrees Sunday night, so outdoor plans after sunset will require more than a light jacket.
Sunny Weekend Gives Way To A Gradual Warm-Up
This is a notable reset from Hoodline’s Friday forecast, which focused on rain, gusty winds and possible snow around the commute. Monday stays sunny with a high near 51, while Tuesday should reach about 51 under more sunshine.
Conditions remain dry into the middle of the week. By Wednesday, Chicago is projected to reach the mid-50s, with highs possibly in the lower or middle 60s Friday as the mild stretch continues.
Patchy Fog Could Complicate Monday Morning
Light winds Sunday night may allow shallow, patchy fog to develop late Sunday into early Monday, particularly south of Interstate 80. Visibility issues are expected to be limited, but drivers heading out early should be ready for a few murky spots.
A low chance of showers arrives with a weak cold front Thursday, November 19, before another chance next weekend. Saturday currently carries a chance of rain with a high near 63, so the week looks mostly dry before the forecast turns a little less cooperative for weekend plans.
