Comfortable for now, but turning hot and humid
PEORIA (25News Now) - Our weather will continue to stay on repeat for the next couple of days. That means that skies will remain mainly clear to partly cloudy with highs in the mid to upper 70s and lows in the low 50s. By Friday, warmer and slightly more muggy air will return to Central Illinois. Expect highs to reach the mid 80s on Friday. This weekend will be hotter and more humid with highs in the upper 80s to low 90s. Expect more of the same early next week, but eventually a cold front will pass through by the middle of the week which will bring cooler and more comfortable conditions back by the end of next week. A few showers and storms will also be possible with this cold front. As it stands now, it looks like next Wednesday will be our best rain chance.
