Rain, Freezing Rain, and Thunder

A little bit of everything is possible with our next system Tuesday evening.  As winds increase with the low level jet tonight, this could bring a few rumbles of thunder to Illinois overnight.

The first round of showers moved through northern Illinois around dinner time, next round will come around 10pm and 11pm. The rain continues overnight and lasts through daybreak Wednesday morning, clearing out from west to east.

Temperatures are hoovering close to the freezing mark, so along with the rain, freezing rain and sleet is also possible. Temperatures will warm after midnight though, and will help to decrease that threat. Looks like we could pick up about a half to three quarters of an inch of rain by tomorrow morning. There is a slight chance for another passing shower tomorrow afternoon. Clouds will clear for a bit early afternoon before increasing again a little later on. High temperatures will warm to either side of 50°.
