Chicago weather: Tuesday expected to be cold and blustery

The chill eases a little over the next few days. Did I mention "a little"?

Highs on Tuesday will eventually reach just shy of freezing by evening. It’s a very cold start though with widespread single digits. Winds will pick up and become quite blustery which will make it feel colder than the 30-ish degrees late Tuesday.

Wednesday we will see temps climb a few degrees above freezing, but due to the rock-like nature of the snow, precious little melting will take place. A few sprinkles, sleet pellets or snowflakes could fall at some point, but this activity would be of little consequence.

Thursday will have highs just above freezing with a chance for a dusting of snow-again nothing super impactful.

A more-meaningful system is on the weather chart for Friday night into Saturday but even that one doesn’t look menacing. Maybe an inch or two as it appears now.
