Saturday was a gorgeous day in the Chicago area, with warm temperatures and sunny skies, but that forecast is not expected to hold for the opening day of the Bears’ regular season.
The Bears and San Francisco 49ers will renew acquaintances on the shores of Lake Michigan Sunday at noon, but when they do, a low-pressure system will be nearly stationary over the upper Midwest, bringing waves of rain, cooler temperatures and gusty winds to the party.
According to the latest forecast models from the NBC 5 Storm Team, that low-pressure system is expected to arrive late Saturday night and into Sunday morning, with rain slowly building into the area as it wraps around the low in a counter-clockwise fashion. Rain will become more widespread as the morning moves along, and by the time the Bears kick off at noon, it is likely that showers will be impacting the area.
