Thursday's weather could not have been more perfect with highs in the upper 80s and plenty of sunshine throughout the afternoon. Today's forecast won't be so rosy but then it doesn't need to be. If you're in a part of the Chicago area affected by rain those showers and the gusty winds should die down by the afternoon. The sun will begin to peek through the clouds and the temps are expected to reach the mid-70s. That's a "winner winner chicken dinner" forecast, in our humble opinion. Go out and enjoy it.
