Still sofaking hot...87 with a 68 dewpoint. Just came from walking around the corner to the store and dripping w/sweat. Want to eat lunch but too hot in kitchen so I'm hanging out in front of a/c on CityData
You're not getting endless-rain like Toronto is?
(I'm surprised because Chicago is not very far from Toronto)
We might get no rain on Friday and maybe no rain on Sunday, if we're lucky.
We have never had a sunny weekend forecast like that since May, or maybe even April.
A little rain here and there, but nothing even remotely close to "endless". Its actually been dry here the last few weeks to make our grass a little yellow and crunchy. We got some decent rain in the last week to green things up a bit.
