The clouds and rain stay with us today but the mercury is expected to climb into the upper 60s, so you can crack open a window or two and let some of this fresh air inside.

The big showers are due to hit this afternoon and cover up to 60 percent of the greater Chicago area, coupled with winds gusting up to 25 MPH. There will be lighter showers into the evening and overnight but, as far as this run of rain is concerned we seem to be through the thick of it.
