Weather to remain mild through early October

http://www.chicagotribune.com/news/weather/ct-wea-summary-0930-20180929-story.html

After a chilly start to the last weekend of September, temperatures are set to rebound. Readings on Sunday are forecast to undergo a modest rise to near seasonable levels despite considerable cloud cover. The warming trend is expected to persist during the opening days of October as winds aloft turn southwesterly, limiting any intrusions of early season polar air to brief, moderate encounters.

Some day-to-day temperature fluctuations are likely, but readings from Sunday through Friday are forecast to average about nine degrees above normal. Temperatures are to peak Wednesday, when a surge of summerlike warmth and humidity is expected to bring 80-degree readings to the area. Nighttime temperatures will exhibit a particularly large deviation from normal. Lows across most of the metro area may not drop below 50 degrees through the upcoming week. Longer-range forecasts do suggest some cooling later in the month.
