>>> GOOD MORNING EVERYONE. WE ARE TRACKING CHANGES FOR THE UPCOMING HOLIDAY WEEKEND. SCATTERED STORMS FRIDAY WILL LINE UP ALONG A COLD FRONT. THAT CUTS HUMIDITY FOR THE WEEKEND. IT WILL BE NOTICEABLY COOLER. BUT THE WAVES WILL BE BUILDING FOR SUNDAY AND INTO LABOR DAY MAKING FOR A HIGH SWIM RISK. ANY CLOUD COVER THIS MORNING, THAT'S GOING TO BE LIFTING AS WE GO THROUGH THE AFTERNOON WHEN WE BECOME MOSTLY SUNNY WITH HIGH TEMPERATURES PUSHING INTO THE 80s. IT'S STILL STEAMY OUTSIDE THOUGH. FORECAST HIGH, YOU WILL NOTICE COOLING LAKE SIDE, PROBABLY 79 FOR OUR FRIENDS IN ZION AND WAUKEGAN, WINTHROP HARBOR, 81 IN THE CITY BUT 89 IN JOLIET. AWAY FROM THE WATER, THAT'S WHERE YOU FIND THE HEAT. WE ARE TRACKING THIS FRONT FOR FRIDAY. IN THE MORNING WE COULD HAVE A FAUX SHOWERS. AS WE WORK THROUGH THE DAY, THE CHANGE TODAY IN THE MODEL RUNS IS SHOWING A SLOWER FORWARD SPEED OF THIS FRONT. LATER IN THE EVENING WE STILL COULD HAVE SCATTERED SHOWERS, RUMBLES OF THUNDER BEFORE THE FRONT FINALLY DROPS SOUTH OF US. THAT COOLS THINGS AS WE STEP THROUGH YOUR WEEKEND. 84 SATURDAY WITH LESS HUMID AIR. SUNDAY, ANOTHER COLD FRONT COMES IN. IT'S A PAIR OF COLD FRONTS THAT'S GOING TO MAKE CONDITIONS ROUGH AT THE BEACHES. FOR OUR LABOR DAY BOATING CONDITIONS, THEY COULD BE DANGEROUS WITH HIGH WAVES AND DANGEROUS RIP CURRENTS AS WELL. THIS IS SUNDAY AND INTO MONDAY. LET'S ENJOY THIS DRY DAY. STEAMY AND 85, COOLER BY THE LAKE. TONIGHT SKIES ARE PARTLY CLOUDY, MUGGY AND MILD AND 72 FOR OVERNIGHT LOW. WE BRING IN THE SCATTERED SHOWER AND STORM CHANCE TOMORROW, 50/50 BUT WARMER AND 88. THAT'S OUR STEAMY STORMY DAY. THEN THE FRONT GOES THROUGH. WE GO TO 84 SATURDAY AND A SECOND FRONT
