CHICAGO - Unseasonably-warm to downright-hot weather is on the way through the weekend.

Chicago weather forecast

What to expect:

Today will be the 23rd straight day with above-normal temperatures. Highs will reach the mid 80s under mostly sunny skies this afternoon. It will turn a few degrees cooler along the lake shore. Tonight will be mostly clear and pleasant with lows in the 60s.

Tomorrow will be hot with highs around 90 under mostly sunny skies. The record is 91 degrees set back in 1954 so we will be close. The records for Saturday and Sunday are 90 and 88 respectively, and both of those are also in jeopardy.

It will remain dry through the weekend as drought conditions worsen.

On Monday it will still be very warm, but with a few more clouds, which will hold highs closer to 80°
