A noisy thunderstorm rolled through the northern suburbs last night. I was awaken from a deep sleep around 12:30 to plenty of lightning, thunder, and heavy rain. While there are a couple showers around this morning, those will track east rather quickly and a pleasant northwest wind will usher in amazingly cool and refreshing air for this time of year. Simply put (yet again) today and Saturday will feature weather that just cannot get any better this time of year. We forecast many outlying communities away from the city to reach the upper 40s Saturday morning and highs both today and Saturday will only climb into the lower 70s. Ahhh, anyone else craving fall?! For those summer lovers, have no fear as heat and humidity will build late in the weekend and really set the tone for the week ahead. Additionally, a couple round of showers and heavy thunderstorms will be possible next week. Right now we target Monday and Thursday for best chances of heavy rain.
