Chicago weather: Will it rain on Halloween? Latest forecast as showers start to move in — Highland Park Sports news

After days of dry conditions, blue skies and warmer-than-normal temperatures, changes are coming to the forecast, the NBC 5 Storm Team said. The shift begins Thursday, with scattered and light rain showers expected through the mid-morning hours. At 5:30 a.m., Live Doppler 5 Radar showed showers and sprinkles across parts of the Chicago area. Most of it is pretty light and scattered, NBC 5 Storm Team Meteorologist Iisha Scott said. Everyone won t see rain this morning, but don t be surprised if you do see a couple of raindrops. Will it rain on Halloween? Rain chances pick up Friday night into Saturday morning, and into the mid-morning hours, Scott said, especially along and south of I-80. Rain will continue heading into into trick-or-treat time, Scott said, though it will likely be less widespread and more scattered in nature. Forecast models showed the rain at 4 p.m. would be mostly back to the west, northwest and the far southeast including Kankakee.
