.DISCUSSION...

The patchy drizzle this morning will give way to gradually
clearing skies this afternoon. Though, there is a chance (20-30%) for
scattered showers to develop this afternoon, especially near the
IL-WI line, as an upper-low passes to our north. Winds will also
become breezy this afternoon with westerly gusts of 25-30 mph
expected.

High pressure is expected to be building into northern
IL on Monday resulting in gradually clearing skies and seasonably
mild temperatures. However, a dry cold front is forecast to move
through the area during the late morning and early afternoon hours
shifting winds out of the northwest in its wake. Wind speeds will
also increase behind the front with gusts of 20-25 mph expected
Monday afternoon. Otherwise, expect afternoon RH values around
50-55 percent and mixing heights to peak in the 2500-3000 ft range
Monday afternoon.

Dry conditions are expected to prevail through the day on Tuesday
as well before our next chance for rain arrives late Wednesday
into Thursday with another cold front.
