Ken Ilio takes us for a spacewalk today.

Well we got some rain last night and parts of the greater Chicago area stand a chance for a shower or two later in the day. It'll also be a bit more humid and warm today as the mercury climbs to the mid 80s. Otherwise, we're closing out the month in style, weather-wise. Tomorrow we're looking at a couple of days of hot weather, but the Labor Day weekend should be perfect.
