With a dry weather pattern currently in place, which will continue into part of next week, we may see dry/drought conditions further worsen and expand. #ILwx #drought

It was just a week ago that we were experiencing record warmth across Illinois! 🔥 During the multi-day stretch of summer-like warmth from October 11-15th, numerous record high temperatures and record warm minimum temperatures were either tied or broken across the state!

Generally dry conditions and plenty of sunshine are expected, with cool nights/mornings and mild afternoons. Highs in the 60's and 70's, with lows in the 40's and 50's will be common state-wide during this stretch!

Some locations across rural Northern Illinois may dip below freezing, potentially experiencing their first light freeze of the season. Additionally, patchy to widespread frost is likely across a good chunk of Northern and Central Illinois. #ILwx #fall #autumn

With cooler conditions expected late this week and continuing through the weekend, including the potential for the first frost of the season across the northern half of the state, we may see foliage color begin to increase more noticeably heading into next week.
