CLEVELAND, Ohio - What is the weather for the World Series? For Game 1 Tuesday, when the Indians host the Chicago Cubs at Progressive Field, it's looking pretty chilly. Wednesday? Sorry, fans, but there's a 40 percent chance of rain.

With downtown bustling with people walking around, celebrating and watching the game, I'm sure you're wondering what the weather is going to be like for this most wonderful time of the year.

(With the Cavs raising their NBA Championship banner Tuesday, some people are calling Oct. 25 Cleveland Christmas.)

Here's the weather forecast for games 1 and 2 of the World Series.

Game 1, Tuesday, Oct. 25, 8:08 p.m.

The high temperature for Tuesday is 49 degrees at 4 p.m. -- and we all know the celebration will definitely start that early. Closer to first pitch, it'll drop to 44 degrees. Doesn't seem too bad, but with a wind chill of 40 degrees (because of 8 mph winds), you may want to bundle up. The good news is rain chances are extremely slight, so no worries about having to bring a rain coat or umbrella.

Game 2, Wednesday, Oct. 26, 8:08 p.m.

Wednesday will be a bit warmer, with the high of 51 degrees at 4 p.m. At game time, the temperature will cool to 46 degrees, with yet another 40-degree wind chill (due to 14 mph winds) - the perfect time to show off that new Tribe winter gear.

The only bummer is there's a 30 percent chance of rain at first pitch, increasing throughout the game, so we'll see if the Indians decide to either move up or reschedule the game for such high chances of showers. Either way, if you're lucky enough to be in the stands Wednesday, bring a poncho or rain coat.

Go Tribe! (And Cavs of course!)
