Anyone who has spent time in Chicago knows the saying "cooler by the lake" when it comes to the weather. Today that coolness will spread across the city as temperatures take a plummet over Tuesday's highs, spurred by a cool front passing through the area and easterly winds. We still have plenty of sunshine and clouds of the cute The Simpsons intro variety before thickening overnight and bringing a chance for some rain as we head into Thursday.
