CHICAGO - It’s cold, and it’s going to stay cold in Chicago with only minor fluctuations in temperatures likely over the next couple of weeks.
As of this writing, temperatures range between roughly 10 degrees and 18 degrees. Thankfully, there isn’t much wind, so the wind chills are in the single digits. It could be much worse.
Today will feature a mix of clouds and sun and a chance for a couple of afternoon flurries. Tonight will be cold once again with temperatures dropping down deep into the teens with some single digits possible away from the city.
Tomorrow will be partly sunny with temperatures a couple of degrees warmer than today, in the mid-to-upper 20s.
Our next chance of sticking snow arrives Friday. It will not be a big storm and I still believe that the higher amounts as in perhaps up to 2 inches would be likely southeast of Interstate 55.
Saturday looks dry with temperatures topping out close to 30 degrees. Another chance of snow arrives on Sunday. This one could put down an inch or so anywhere in Chicagoland with high temperatures once again close to 30.
Next week looks cold with highs in the 20s, maybe peaking on a couple of days at freezing but no thaw in sight.
