Much of the day will remain dry, Roman added, but storms and showers could form between 3 p.m. and 4 p.m.
By around 5 p.m., scattered showers and storms could move into Chicago, Roman said, with rain set to move into Northwest Indiana and Kankakee by evening. Although severe weather isn't expected, the storms could carry lightning strikes, heavy downpours and gusty winds. Scattered thunderstorms are possible this afternoon into the evening , with the main hazards being lightning strikes and locally heavy downpours. The strongest storms may produce gusty winds.Storms and showers were expected to linger overnight in some parts and continue through the Wednesday morning commute and into early afternoon, Roman said. At that time, rain was expected to be more widespread.Wednesday will also see cooler temperatures, Roman said, as a cold front moves in behind the rain.
