Temperatures are quite a bit 'cooler' Wednesday afternoon following the passage of a cold front Tuesday evening. That front brought scattered thunderstorms to the region overnight, with skies remaining partly sunny through much of Wednesday afternoon.
Temperatures area wide have warmed into the low to mid 80s, but with dew points still in the upper 60s and low 70s the muggy feeling will continue through the evening - although not nearly as humid as the last few days.
A few showers have developed to the north in Wisconsin along a convergence boundary, where winds are coming together. A very small chance for an isolated shower will be possible across southern Wisconsin and far northern Illinois through the evening but most will remain dry during that time.
As skies turn partly cloudy Wednesday night temperatures will fall into the mid-60s. With the recent rain this may allow some areas of fog to develop. Skies will turn partly cloudy Thursday afternoon as highs warm back into the upper 80s. An approaching cold front from the northwest will move closer to the Stateline Thursday night giving us our next chance for showers and thunderstorms through the night.
Severe weather will be likely to the northwest Thursday afternoon, with a small chance for some gusty winds after dark locally. The front passes Friday morning which will take most of the rain chance with it by the afternoon. Temperatures will be in the mid-80s Friday afternoon.
