Scattered Storms With Heavy Rain Expected Across Chicago Tuesday

Chicago will face scattered storms and heavy rain on Tuesday, following a night of significant rainfall. Meteorologist Zachary Yack indicated that “isolated to widely scattered showers” will occur intermittently throughout the day, starting Tuesday morning and continuing until the evening. The heavier rain is expected to impact areas south of the city, similar to the previous night's disruption of a White Sox game for 63 minutes. Temperatures will remain comfortable in the 80s, with a mix of sun and clouds providing brief dry spells. Yack noted that conditions are likely to improve on Wednesday, with minimal chances of rain through Friday.

This weather pattern is consistent with seasonal averages for August in Chicago. The forecast highlights the unpredictable nature of summer weather in the region. Residents should stay alert for sudden changes and prepare for potential downpours.
