with these storms but a little closer to chicago ridge here we watched a little thunderstorms' pop up in the eye out for the past several hours and at the moment what appears to be moving just to the west of the city i will say about 20 mi. or so one storm which i thought would survive by the time we made a year has already dissipated it is possible more storms may pop up from time to time this evening so to hear little thunder that is what's going on, computer models do not show all allow for tomorrow but by the time we get into monday and looks likely that we could see some passing showers in the area. for tomorrow, partly cloudy and isolated storms. and

a storm possible under partly cloudy skies looks like the best chance of storms over the next three days will probably be monday high-temperature again 76-80 degrees tomorrow and monday both records, i have chosen to drop the temperature is a little for tuesday and wednesday but frankly it's a close call we could easily hit 80 those two days as well i think a little rain may mixed on some cooler air but if it doesn't occur we will be looking at 81 or 82 degrees those days but as you saw on the seven day temperatures finally come back close to normal by next saturday. three hopefully you will smile at tonight's local lottery drawing which is next
