CWG Live updates: A slow warming trend through Friday and mostly dry
Welcome to updated around-the-clock by Capital Weather Gang meteorologists. Happening now: Low clouds and patchy fog early give way to partly sunny skies by the afternoon. It's moderately humid with highs in the low 80s. What's next? After a chance of showers early Tuesday, we'll have several days of dry, sunny weather. Highs climb from the low 80s Tuesday to near 90 by Friday, when humidity also starts to build. The weekend looks unsettled with shower and storm chances, maybe not unlike this past weekend. Today's daily digit — 7/10: It's a bit gray early but clouds break through and it will be nice to have an afternoon free of rain. | 🤚 Your call? The digit is a somewhat subjective rating of the day's weather, on a 0-to-10 scale. Forecast in detail Today (Monday): We awaken to cloudy skies and areas of fog, but skies should brighten by midmorning and sunshine becomes prevalent by midday. It's a pretty nice afternoon, though a bit muggy (dew points in the upper 60s), with highs in the low 80s. Winds are light from the southeast at around 5 to 10 mph. Confidence: Medium-High Tonight: Clouds increase and there's a chance of scattered showers and storms, first in our western areas during the evening and then elsewhere overnight. A couple storms could be strong, especially the early ones that form out to the west. Overnight lows range from 65 to 70. Confidence: Medium-High Tomorrow (Tuesday): A morning shower or storm is possible followed by gradual clearing and decreasing humidity. The afternoon looks promising with sunshine and highs in the low 80s. Confidence: Medium-High Tomorrow night: A very nice early summer night. Under mostly clear skies, evening temperatures slip through the 70s with lows by morning in the upper 50s in our cooler spots to the mid-60s downtown. Confidence: High A look ahead High pressure is in control Wednesday through Friday meaning lots of sunny, dry weather. Both temperatures and humidity levels will rise, however. Highs in the low to mid-80s on Wednesday sneak up to near 90 by Friday, when it turns rather muggy. Lows on Wednesday range from 60 to 65 or so and are closer to 70 by Friday. Confidence: Medium-High The weekend forecast is a real challenge as a cold front stalls in the region. Showers and storms are possible both days and some could be heavy. Temperatures will depend on how far south the cold front advances. If it lingers to the north, it will be warm and muggy with highs well into the 80s, but if it pushes far enough south, we may hold in the 70s. Stay tuned for updates as this forecast comes into focus.

Powerful storm slams Batavia, leaving behind damage
KANE COUNTY - Lifelong Batavians say they've never seen damage like this in their neighborhood. A powerful storm on Sunday happened within seconds, shutting off power to 1,800 residents. The aftermath included trees snapped in half and powerlines grounded, making streets impassable. The storm made its mark just before 3 p.m. "It was quick. I was outside messing around. I heard thunder and good lightning and said, 'I'm gonna go inside,'" said Arnie Anderson. Residents saw two-inch-size hail and endured 70 mile per hour winds. At Carlisle and Jackson, three hours after the storm, utility cables were seen wrapped around trees as storm debris was seen everywhere in sight. A number of homes were left with roof damage. "It sounded like our house was inside the drying machine. I couldn't see out my windows in any direction," said Layla Brown. Families spent the afternoon and evening clearing what they could. Tree removal crews were seen working hard as well. Some roads remained blocked off as utility trucks addressed power outages. The good news is despite the widespread destruction, there were no injuries. As of 9 p.m., ComEd reported 38 homes still without power.
