Showers continue to our southwest today while we remain breezy and dry

 Although portions of the state line seen showers yesterday and into the late night most of those showers will continue to drift to our southwest later today as a low-pressure system dives to our south. This system will take most available moisture with it leaving us dry but also bringing gustier winds and even some sunshine into the afternoon.

With moisture being pulled to our south this morning skies will eventually begin to clear by mid-day with even mostly sunny skies possible at times later today. This will help us feel warmer but not much as breezy winds today will stick around thanks to the proximity of the low-pressure system. Towards the late afternoon, wind gusts may approach 30 to even 35 mph at times.

In terms of precipitation beyond that, Northern Illinois and Southern Wisconsin look to continue to stay dry with little to no rainfall possible through Halloween and into the weekend. Low pressure to our south combined with high pressure to our north won't allow much lift to move into the region while our atmospheric moisture content will remain dry as well.
