We could also get a dusting to a few tenths of an inch of snow late Sunday night into early Monday, though whatever does fall won’t stick around long, with highs at or above 40° next few days.

We’ll be warming up through Wednesday, when the high is expected to be in the upper 40s, before a strong cold front comes through, sending temperatures plunging heading into Christmas Eve, bringing the coldest temperatures of the season so far.
Temperatures could fall into the teens by early Christmas Eve, and even reach the single digits early on Christmas Day, with wind chills possibly dipping below zero by early Christmas moring.
Wednesday night also brings another chance for light snow into early Christmas Eve.
Can you guess when a strong cold front comes through next week? Coldest air of season so far just in time for the holiday. #ilwx pic.twitter.com/UA7CzDpJTH
