I had foolishly allowed myself to believe that we were actually done with 70-degree dewpoints for the year, and there was even reason to hope that the Atlantic would be devoid of tropical systems except far-off fish storms.
Suddenly it all comes crashing down!
>Probably looking high temps upper 70s to low 80s with reasonable dewpoints if this verifies.
It had better. To hell with this humidity. To hell with every damn summer being longer and muggier than the last. I want things to go back to normal, and by normal I mean the mild summers of the early sixties.
Never mind the back-and-forth, I'm just thoroughly tired of the 70+ dewpoints, which according to the AFD won't be decreased by the upcoming "cold" fronts. Can't wait for the cooling trend.
I hope Chicago doesn't get another surprise low-60s-and-heavy-drizzle day like Friday. Damn near froze my tuchus off, because I had packed only shorts and T-shirts, anticipating upper 70s highs at least.
I'm in Chicago until 7/21, and I'm sure not loving this humidity. Any chance of a real cold front in the foreseeable future that will knock the DPs down to 50 or below??
At 3 p.m. it looked like a nasty line of storms was heading straight for Tysons Corner. But all we got was clouds - not even much wind! Sun back out in Vienna.
