Temperatures will gradually rise this week in Chicago, although they will remain slightly below average through Friday.
There will be plenty of sunshine through the week, making it pleasant for outdoor activities. However, a brief break from sunshine will come on Thursday, as spotty showers dampen the city throughout the day and into the evening hours.
Drier weather will return on Friday as temperatures approach 60 F and by the weekend, highs will range from the middle to upper 60s. A normal high for this time of year is in the upper 50s.
Overnight lows will settle in the low 50s by Friday.
The dry conditions over the weekend is good news for the run-up to Halloween activities, including the annual "Boo! at the Zoo", hosted by the Brookfield Zoo in Brookfield, Illinois.
