If you’re making weekend plans, you might want to keep an eye on the sky. Chicago’s weather is about to take a turn, with a little bit of everything—sunshine, gusty winds, and even some rain—on the way. It’s classic spring in the Windy City, where the forecast keeps you guessing!
Thursday: Sunshine Early, Clouds and Wind Take Over
Thursday, March 27, starts off on a bright and promising note, but don’t get too comfortable. Clouds will creep in as the day moves along, and by the afternoon, those familiar Chicago winds will pick up speed. It’ll still be fairly mild, with a high near 55°F (13°C), but with the breeze, it might feel a little cooler. By nighttime, temps will dip to around 45°F (7°C)—a reminder that winter isn’t completely out of the picture just yet.
Friday: Early Showers, Then a Warm-Up
Friday, March 28, brings another change in the weather script. The morning could be a little damp with some scattered showers in the area—so if you’re heading out early, a light rain jacket or an umbrella might be a good idea. But don’t worry, the rain won’t last all day. By afternoon, things will warm up to a pleasant 66°F (19°C) with a mix of sun and clouds. Even the nighttime will feel mild, staying around 54°F (12°C).
