Highs will be climbing in to the 80s over the weekend, so even though the astronomical start of fall is Monday, we're getting summer-style weather. This stretch of sunshine can't change the fact that we've had an unusually cloudy September so far, with only 53 percent of the month's possible sun rather than the typical 63 percent. Still, we're looking at mostly sunny skies through at least Tuesday. [NWS, Accuweather, WGN]
