Chicago weather: Warmup around the corner

After a brief cool down, a big warmup is right around the corner.

The chill we're feeling now is thanks to a quick-moving dip in the jet stream over the Great Lakes, but it's already on its way out.

The bigger story is a powerful ridge of warm air that's been driving record heat across the U.S. and it's about to build back in our direction.

Here is your 7-day forecast:

Monday: Cooler lakeside. High: 42, Low: 31

Tuesday: Breezy. High: 52, Low: 38

Wednesday: Breezy. High: 68, Low: 48

Thursday: Evening storms. High: 77, Low: 33

Friday: Breezy. High: 41, Low: 29

Saturday: Mostly sunny. High: 53, Low: 37

Sunday: Partly cloudy. High: 58, Low: 45
