Today's Weather: Feeling Hot

By Lisa White in News on Jun 10, 2015 1:30PM

Get ready for rising mercury, today could possibly be the hottest day of the year we've had so far. Skilling is saying we could even hit the 90 degree mark, the first time we've reached 90 or warmer since last July. Either way, we'll keep it in the mid to upper 80s for most of the day, with partly sunny skies this morning.

Clouds will increase in the afternoon and we could see a threat of showers and thunderstorm clusters over at least 40 to 50% of the Chicago area. Expect partly cloudy skies tonight.
