Average highs start dropping now at ORD. The slow March towards fall has begun

Summer 2026 Med/Long Range Discussion

Canada looks wet too, might be a good thing wrt wildfire smoke. -
Maybe a 2-3 day period of 90s. Not really seeing any extended heatwaves though in the extended. August is almost here. 1 more month of 100 degree potential left.
-
When you factor in real-feel, nearly a 50 degree drop from the peak of the recent heatwaves. Low temps in the 50s will feel so foreign after this recent stretch! I love our climo! Just when you think things are starting to get extreme and unrelenting Mother Nature gives us a nice respite. Same thing in the heart of winter when the bitter cold stretches are followed by a nice thaw.

Much needed, decent coverage too.

Normally would be rooting for a lake breeze but all it’s doing now is pushing in more nasty air from the N/NE

Smoke seems to have thickened even more the last hour. Didn’t think it could get any worse Eeery Dark skies @ 5pm

@SchaumburgStormer and @cyclone77 breathing easy out west.
-
Not much the canadiens can honestly do on their end. The forests are so remote and Canada as a whole is so sparsely populated that they just don’t have the resources and manpower to do much of significance.

Gonna be some nasty sediment from whatever rain falls. Should see some gnarly pics the next few days

Heating up quick today gonna hit 90 by 11ish
-
Wouldn’t surprise me if ORD or somewhere nearby briefly touches 100 today or tomorrow early afternoon. Models showing some nice dew point mixing during peak heating time today and tomorrow.
-
Euro throwing up some wild numbers for Wednesday. Looks super funky with a pocket of dewpoints in the 50s! 102/55 ORD For me personally if it’s gonna torch I’d rather it be a very dry heat like this. Evaporative cooling FTW!
-
Might be able to sneak in a 90 today, gonna be super close… With dew-points in the 60s though it doesn’t feel too bad at all in the shade. Perfect summer day! That hot and muggy stretch last week really did a wonderful job of acclimatizing my body for deep summer heat. After a week full of mid-upper 70s DPs under my belt, my tolerance for upcoming heat has certainly gone up. Today was easy peazy.

Tis the season. Love the rando pop ups!
-
Just about 2 more months of summer wx for you guys left up there, enjoy the pleasant temps! Then it’s countdown to the 1st frost/freeze of the season!
-
As expected. 100s are very hard to come for most of us without the perfect conditions. In most scenarios you really need drought-like conditions to hit that century mark.
-
It’s July in the MW, it gets hot every year. Nothing HISTORIC about this stretch tho for most peeps. Not too many people are going to look back in 20 years and remember the great 4th of July heatwave of 2026. Otoh there are quite a few heatwaves from the mid-late 90s and 2000s that I can still remember vividly.
-
Agreed! Wetter means better air quality too for us usually. AQI does get too bad when it’s wet.
-
Looks like one more night of 70+ low temps and then we get a nice stretch of 60s at night! Don’t really care if temp rises above 85 during the heart of summer. as long as it cools into the 60s at night I’m chilling!
-
Could get 89d today. Pretty average heat-wave overall. The balmy overnight lows and the record high min were the most noteworthy parts of the stretch.
