Chicago Forecast: Cloudy skies, steady rainfall expected throughout Saturday
After a summer-like Friday with sunny skies and warm temperatures likely made Chicago-area residents feel excited about the start of meteorological summer, Saturday’s conditions will likely be a far cry from yesterday’s sunshine.
Saturday’s high temperature is actually being reached in the morning hours, with highs peaking in the upper 60s ahead of rainfall that’s expected to move in by the late morning.
Though precipitation is likely to begin in parts of the region as early as 9 a.m., consistent rainfall is expected from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m., with lingering scattered showers possible in the following hours.
Temperatures are expected to be in the low-to-mid 60s during much of Saturday’s rainfall.
While rainy conditions are expected all day, strong winds are not anticipated during Saturday’s rainfall, with southeast winds at five to 10 miles per hour forecasted.
