According to CBS 2 meteorologist Mary Kay Kleist, the upper-level system is overhead Tuesday, so it won’t take much to create towering clouds and a few showers and isolated thunderstorms.

However, a lake breeze has formed and is pushing inland. This northeast flow off the lake will pull stable air across the city and to O’Hare Airport & Midway Airport.

The best chance for storms Tuesday is farther west and also south of I-80. These would be slow movers, creating heavy downpours and gusty winds.

Any showers or storms will collapse with sunset.

Expect fog again overnight, especially lakeside.
