This weekend could start to feel more like spring for the Chicago area.
Accompanied by a jump in temperatures, Saturday will likely remain cloudy through the afternoon and breezy with wind gusts up to 20 mph, according to NBC 5 Storm Team meteorologists.
Highs in the mid 40s are expected Saturday, which for some will be a welcome change, but still cooler than usual for this time of year.
The springtime weather many have been waiting for will arrive Sunday, and you'll want to take advantage while it lasts. Pleasant conditions and sunshine will settle in across the region, along with temperatures in the mid 50s to low 60s, though cooler by the lake.
