Today's Weather: Stormy Monday

We've got a wet start to the week, with a few days of thunderstorms hanging around the Chicago area. According to Skilling, it's all the fault of a slow-moving cold front, which is bringing us this "prolonged period of wet weather." Although it's currently clear at the Chicagoist headquarters, we'll have showers and thunderstorms snarling the morning commute, so make sure to grab an umbrella just in case. They'll decrease later in the morning and temperatures will top out in the low 70s.

Tomorrow night will be more of the same but a bit cooler, with overcast skies and possible heavy thunderstorms later in the evening.
