A little overnight rain Tuesday night is going to give way to a sunny and cool finish to the week, leading up to Halloween.

On the WHOW Morning Show Tuesday, Ed Shimon at the National Weather Service in Lincoln told the Hart Media Group the rain moving through the area is not going to be as significant as once anticipated. 

The rest of the week should be rather pleasant. Shimon indicates we are in for sunny skies starting later in the day on Wednesday, and that should last all the way through the weekend.

October has been very dry and warm. Keep it to the Hart Media Group this week to hear from Ed on just how dry we currently are in parts of central Illinois.
