Fire Weather Planning Forecast for Central/Southeast Illinois
National Weather Service Lincoln IL
336 AM CST Sun Nov 9 2025

.DISCUSSION...

Breezy northwest winds over the next two days, gusting 25 to 35
mph at the surface, will result in good to very good ventilation.
It will unseasonably cool, however, with high temperatures
struggling to climb above the mid-30s both days. The pattern will
be unsettled, with some lingering snow showers possible across
eastern IL this morning, isolated to scattered snow showers area-
wide late this evening, and a narrow band of minor snow
accumulations across east-central IL early Monday morning.
Temperatures will trend warmer throughout the week, returning to
the 60s by Friday.
