A clear and calm day is unfolding for much of the Midwest, especially near Chicago and Indianapolis, with no significant weather activity seen. However, scattered light rain is visible around Detroit and Saginaw, heading eastward. Cleveland is also experiencing sprinkles, which should move out quickly. The rest of the Midwest, including St. Louis and Kansas City, enjoys dry and pleasant conditions.
Tomorrow morning in Chicago starts with sunny skies and temperatures at 67 degrees by 8 AM. As the morning progresses, temperatures rise to 75 degrees at 10 AM and reach 81 degrees by noon. A southwesterly wind will gently breez through at 13 miles per hour at 10 AM, picking up slightly to 15 miles per hour by noon.
Tomorrow in the Midwest, temperatures will soar with Kansas City reaching a high of 93 degrees. St. Louis and Peoria are expected to follow closely, both hitting 90 degrees. Chicago will experience a warm high of 90 as well, while Indianapolis sees a comfortable 87 degrees. These temperatures are well above average for this time of year, driven by a strong ridge of high pressure across the region. Expect increasing humidity levels alongside these warm temps, creating a muggy feel throughout the day.
A cold front is set to push through the Midwest tomorrow, bringing a mix of rain and storms across the region. Expect thunderstorms to develop from Chicago to Indianapolis, with a risk of severe weather, including damaging winds. Heavy rainfall is anticipated in areas like Louisville and Columbus, potentially leading to localized flooding. Temperatures will cool down by about 5 to 10 degrees as the front passes.
The UV index in Chicago will be very high with a value of 9 today and tomorrow, indicating a burn time of approximately 15 minutes in direct sunlight. Ensure you take precautions like wearing sunscreen and protective clothing to minimize sun exposure.
