Good evening, Chicago! Here's your weather report for the upcoming days:

On Tuesday, the Chicago area will continue to experience showers, which are expected to gradually diminish by this evening. Skies will remain mostly cloudy throughout the night, accompanied by temperatures ranging from the mid to upper 50s.

Wednesday will bring a decrease in cloud cover, leading to partly cloudy skies. High temperatures will reach the mid to upper 70s. It's important to note that areas near the lake may experience cooler temperatures, and there is a possibility of hazy skies due to the return of Canadian wildfire smoke.
