New Year’s Day Forecast 🥳🎉
Illinois is starting the New Year with a forecast that says, “I’m not exciting, but I am reliable.” Consider it weather with good intentions.
🌡️ Temperatures
•Northern Illinois: 10’s and 20’s —Brisk enough to remind you that winter didn’t make a New Year’s resolution to go easy on us.
•Central Illinois: 20’s and 30’s — Still chilly, but at least it’s trying to meet winter halfway.
•Southern Illinois: Upper 30’s to near 50 — Casually reminding everyone that geography matters.
❄️ Precipitation
Dry conditions will dominate statewide, so no messy weather hangovers expected. That said, far Northeastern Illinois could catch a few stray snow flurries or a quick snow shower between late morning and the late afternoon — nothing more than winter tossing some confetti for the New Year.
It’s a quiet start to the year — perfect for naps, leftovers, and easing into those resolutions like “I’ll start next week.”
