Today could be the warmest we've had in weeks as highs may crack 70 for the first time all month. There's scattered rain across northern Illinois this morning but most of that should move on by mid-day and skies should become partly sunny. Enjoy the warmer weather because a cold front moves through tomorrow bringing back the chillier weather and some rain. If there's any good news, it seems an El Nino winter may be in effect this year, meaning a warmer and drier than usual winter, running counter to what we heard earlier this year. One can only hope. And for all you Devil in the White City buffs out there, today is the anniversary of the World's Columbian Exposition's opening ceremonies, which happened in 1892, though construction delays prevented the fair from opening until the following year.
