St. Patrick's Day is here and Mother Nature is bringing us some chilly weather for the east. Chicago was WAY ahead of us last week, getting in on their St. Patrick's Day festivities by dying the Chicago river green!

The Forecast

After a gnarly system brought rain, snow and even severe weather to the central/eastern U.S., most of us are going to be staying nice and dry in it's wake. Out towards Chicago and Boston specifically, looking bone dry. Even, in some cases, rather chilly for this time of year! Most of these major parades got quite the lucky forecast!

Make sure you're staying tuned to WeatherNation for all of your top weather headlines from coast to coast!
