Sunshine With A Breeze Expected This Weekend

Temperatures will be close to 90 with a decent chance of a lake breeze on both Saturday and Sunday.

A quiet weekend is in store for our area as the upper-air flow becomes more tranquil.

This means lots of sunshine with temperatures once again close to 90 with a decent chance of a lake breeze on both days. The best chance of rain will be closer to the jet-stream, which will stay well north of our region with just a slim chance of a t-storm near the Illinois/Wisconsin border by Sunday night.

Saturday: Partly to mostly sunny. Mostly clear skies at night.
