A great week of weather is ahead to close out May in central Illinois.

On the WHOW Morning Show Tuesday, Ed Shimon at the National Weather Service in Lincoln told the Hart Media Group active storm systems are being detoured well around central Illinois—pushing precipitation out into the plains and over into the Ohio Valley.

According to Shimon, a minor pocket of lingering moisture will bring a slight 20 percent chance of an isolated pop-up shower late Tuesday evening and into early Wednesday morning. Most residents, though, might see a brief 30-minute sprinkle capable of wetting the ground before clouds clear out completely by Wednesday afternoon

We'll hear from Shimon later this week on the outlook for June, as we get set to turn the calendar next week - when students in Clinton begin summer break.
