Good Morning, everyone, and here is your forecast for Day 1 of Pitchfork Music Fest. The warming trend continues today with a high near 80 degrees and plenty of sun so bring sunscreen to Union Park. Things will be cooler inland thanks to some gentle winds blowing off the lake. As we head into the evening and overnight we should expect lows in the mid-60s, just enough to keep us comfortable with a fan on low.

The warming trend will continue throughout the weekend with highs in the mid-80s and the air will become slightly more humid as we should fully expect typical July Chicago weather by Monday.
