Enjoy this weekend's weather while you can because what we normally assume to be summer in Chicago returns next week. Today's forecast calls for skies with cottony-looking cumulus clouds, plenty of sunshine and a high in the upper-80s. By Sunday we should see highs in the mid-80s but humidity levels won't rise with the mercury. That will happen next week.
