The phenomenon, which coincides with the spring and fall equinoxes -- March 21 and Sept. 21, respectively -- lasts for about a week and features the sun rising and setting in line with the buildings on Chicago's east-west streets.

Weather forecasters said Monday evening would likely offer the first good look at the phenomenon after rainy weather during the weekend.
