Monday: Hottest late season temperature in a half century
The calendar says late September, but late summer warmth isn’t going away just yet.
Monday’s unseasonable 89 degrees at O’Hare and 90 degrees at Midway made this the warmest temperature for this late in the season since 1975 when the mercury peaked at 89 degrees on October 14!
It’s a level nearly 20 degrees above normal and more typical of July.
We add one to the list at Midway, making this 30 days now for 2025 at or above 90-degrees.
We’re now at 85 days and 90 days respectively at O’Hare and Midway, and while still behind a year ago, we’ve surpassed the annual normal at both locations.
Another 100% sunny day keeping the trend of what’s been a sunny month!
Mold continues to be an issue for allergy sufferers. Note: The folks at Loyola Medicine will stop taking pollen numbers after tomorrow and resume again next spring.
Summer-level warmth dominated the entire Midwest with highs 15 to 25-degrees above normal across a large area.
