Thanks to Saturday morning’s showers and considerable cloudiness, a stable atmosphere was in place over northern Illinois and southern Wisconsin for much of the afternoon. As a cool front pushes toward the area, though, thunderstorms will develop ahead of this boundary for the evening and nighttime hours. The thunderstorms will be scattered in nature.

Looking at the latest trends, the best threat for any severe weather appears to stay just south of our area. However, we may see a stronger thunderstorm or two across some of our thirteen counties. The stronger storms will contain heavy rain, small hail, frequent lightning, and brief gusty wind.
The scattered thunderstorm activity will wind down after midnight, allowing for some breaks in the cloud cover. Patchy fog may develop toward dawn. It looks like we’ll sneak out a dry day on Sunday, with much of the stormy activity confined to central Illinois and points south. We can’t rule out a widely-isolated thunderstorm, especially south of Interstate 88.
