Chicago weather: Tuesday morning forecast

FOX 32's Mike Caplan breaks down today's weather outlook.

Showers will work their way through the Chicago area this morning. Amounts shouldn’t get out of hand but wet pavement equals slowdowns. 

I can’t rule out a spotty afternoon shower but there will be a few peeks of sun, enough to warm just past 70 degrees, perhaps a bit warmer out west. 

Tonight remains mostly cloudy with a small chance of a shower far north though northwest Illinois into southern Wisconsin may end up with the action.  

Tomorrow will be partly sunny and much warmer as we begin a string of 80s that should last through Saturday.  However, there appear to be several small chances for showers now virtually every day of the forecast. I still think Sunday has the most widespread activity but a little something-something here or there may be on the radar.
