Red Alert: We're tracking a wintry mix of rain and snow that could make for a messy Thursday into Friday.
Alerts: Red Alert Thursday afternoon into Friday for rain, gusty winds and even some snow inland and N&W.Forecast: Today will be mostly sunny, cold and breezy with highs near 40... feels like the 30s. We'll see increasing clouds late tonight with lows in the 30s... feels like the 20s. Tomorrow morning's commute should stay dry, then our rain/snow maker pushes in tomorrow afternoon and lingers through the day on Friday.
At this point it looks like mainly rain tomorrow afternoon in the city with a mix/snow developing inland and N&W; snow will transition to rain across more of our northwest suburbs into tomorrow night with plain rain -- which could be heavy at times -- in the city and along the coast; then some additional rain lingers into the Friday morning commute.

Frontiers | Appraisal of coral bleaching thresholds and thermal projections for the northern Red Sea refugiaCorals in the northern Red Sea exhibit high thermal tolerance despite experiencing frequent and severe heat stress. It is assumed that corals in the Red Sea have similar bleaching thresholds (32°C), and thus, the apparent bleaching tolerance of corals in the NRS is due to the lower ambient temperature (25–28°C) of the region that remains under their physiological maxima. Whether bleaching patterns along the Red Sea are independent of the local maximum monthly mean and aligned with the proposed 32°C threshold has yet to be determined. Here, we used surface seawater temperature remote sensing data (1982–2020) to model spatial distributions of Degree Heat Weeks across the Red Sea using coral thermal threshold values of 30, 31, and 32°C. We also used the Coupled Model Intercomparison Project Phase 5 model outputs to predict warming trends in the Red Sea under different representative concentration pathway scenarios. Our data show the 32°C–adjusted thresholds dramatically reduced Degree Heat Weeks in the northern Red Sea, but not in central or southern Red Sea, which is consistent with bleaching observations throughout the Red Sea. Further, it is predicted that the northern Red Sea will experience the least range of warming by end of the 21st century (2–2.5°C) compared to the central and southern regions (2.7-3.1°C) under the business as usual scenario. The slower rate of warming in the northern Red Sea should help promote the refugia (i.e., the ability to maintain favorable temperature for corals) to remain functional for decades. Collectively, our results support the hypothesis that coral bleaching thresholds are independent of the local maximum monthly mean, and corals have similar thresholds throughout the Red Sea. Regional projections of warming suggest that the northern Red Sea that experiences low ambient surface seawater temperature and maximum monthly mean will not reach the proposed threshold (32°C) by end of the 21st century. Our work suggests that while globa
