Nice donut over N IL. I think we’ll see some rain fasho but it won’t be much more that .25-.50”. Surrounding areas will do better. Hope I’m wrong tho

Can’t beat cool crisp 50s at night followed by a nice dry 80ish during the day. locally we hit 48 earlier and then got up to 84 today. Lovely range.

June 1922 is the driest June in the books for Chicago with .12 “ I hope we don’t break that record. -
Perfect snoozing wx at night. Crack open all the windows without worry
-
Amazing stretch on deck for a lot of us with comfy dew points in the 50s.

Shoulder season weather FTW!

I’ll gladly take a healthy and very normal spring frost/freeze in exchange for the local ecosystem/ wildlife benefits. (Invasive species to be exact that can’t handle the cold) I know late spring cold sucks after such a nice stretch of wx but it’s very healthy for the local ecosystem to get spring freezes and frosts.

Extended looks primo with a range of 40-70ish on deck.

It will be very nice to kill off some of the skeeters that might have gotten going though. Late spring frost and freezes play a vital role in making sure disease carrying insects don’t get too bad in the summer up here in the Midwest/north. Sure some crops may suffer but overall late spring frosts/freezes serve a purpose and are a net + for the local ecosystem. Insects/diseases and Invasive species in particular are no laughing matter in the southern states, all creeping north with time…. As person who spends a great deal of time in forest preserves, I am personally very thankful for this frost/freeze.

I’m Just hoping the hose doesn’t shut off for June/July/August. A dessert like summer could wipe out all of the drought progress this spring. -
60 degree dew points are back. It is definitely noticeably sticky out there today.

Going to go outside to enjoy the couple of hours above 50 here before the quick temp crash. It’s going to be a wild ride
