Good morning, everyone! We're starting the day with some tricky conditions across Northern Illinois, as patchy fog has developed, with some areas experiencing locally dense fog and reduced visibility under a mile. We advise everyone heading out early this morning, especially near river valleys or along the Illinois-Wisconsin line, to exercise caution during their commute. This fog is expected to burn off by mid-morning, giving way to a pleasant, mostly sunny, and warm afternoon, with highs generally reaching the mid-80s today.
Looking ahead to the latter half of the week, our team is monitoring a system that will increase our chances for showers and thunderstorms, particularly from late tonight through Saturday night, with a 20-30% probability. There's a conditional threat for heavy rain
