Alicia Roman has the latest forecast.
Tuesday in Chicago is expected be to a bitter cold day from morning until night -- but at least the sun will shine.
Following in Monday's icy-cold footsteps, Tuesday is expected to remain clear but cold as an Arctic air mass continues it's path through the Midwest. According to the NBC 5 Storm Team, around 2 p.m., Tuesday is expected to make it to a high temperature of 15 degrees, marking a slight warm up from the early morning hours when thermometer readings clocked in at just 2 degrees.
And while 15 degrees may sound cold, wind chills in the single digits -- with a high of 6 degrees -- will unfortunately make things feel simply frigid.
The good news: Much of the week will be filled with clear, sunny skies, the NBC 5 Storm Team says. The daylight will last a bit longer too, with Tuesday's sunset scheduled for 5:05 p.m.
By midweek, temperatures begin will begin rebound, the NBC 5 Storm Team says, with highs in the upper 20s Wednesday, and a high of 30 degrees Thursday. However, a cold front moving in will bring temperatures back down into the 20s Friday, with the potential for some lake effect snow and flurries in Northwest Indiana.
