Thursday in the Chicago area will start out rainy for some as an “unsettled” weather pattern begins to take shape, with daily chances for showers, stormy weather at times and even snow.
As of 6 a.m. Thursday morning, some scattered showers were moving across the area from the northwest to the southeast. According to NBC 5 Storm Team Meteorologist Alicia Roman, scattered showers would continue through the morning hours for some parts, with more rain chances between 10 a.m. and 2 p.m.
“The rain stays scattered, so not everyone will see it,” Roman said. “Hopefully, we’ll see no rain at Rate Field,” with the Chicago White Sox home opener scheduled for 3:10 p.m.
Temperatures Thursday will be in the 50s Roman said, with cooler readings along the lake. Friday, warmer temperatures were on tap, Roman said, though another wave of rain overnight — this time, with storms — will move in.
“A strong warm front will lift north tonight into Friday morning, accompanied by showers and scattered thunderstorms,” the National Weather Service said. Some of the strongest storms could produce hail, the NWS warned, along with lightning strikes and heavy downpours.
According to Roman, the highest chances for rain and storms Friday begins around midnight, lasting through about 9 a.m.
