Chicago Storm Posted June 28, 2023 Share Posted June 28, 2023 Forgot to mention the 90's this past weekend, on Saturday June 24th. Topped out at 93 at ORD, and 92 at MDW and RFD. RFD also added a 90 last Wednesday (June 21st) as well. ...2023 90°+ Day Tally... 6 - ARR 5 - ORD 5 - DPA 4 - MDW 4 - RFD 4 - LOT 2 - PWK 0 - UGN Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smoke so thick its blocking the sun? Nah. Leave it to IL government to fuck up something so simple. 13 hours ago, RCNYILWX said: Since that's what the 2nd paragraph of their statement implies, and they apparently only see their role as alerting sensitive groups, I tend to agree. Behind the scenes, there's bureaucratic stuff with IDEM that we've had to sort out, but they've been very proactive in putting out AQAs, just like all the other state EPAs have been in this stretch, with the exception of the IL EPA. Sent from my SM-G998U using Tapatalk Just to rehash this slightly… because I am buzzed and annoyed. What threshold is the IEPA looking for? A large portion of Illinois had the worst air quality on the fucking planet today. If this isn’t a slam dunk, I don’t know what is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm all for being inside the "ring" if it's sunshine and 90 with nightly MCS. This thing sounds like incessant clouds and 88 with 75 dews and storms. I'll pass on that. I'll take the south miss.

hawkeye_wx Posted June 28, 2023 Share Posted June 28, 2023 A decent complex of thundershowers moved through eastern Iowa overnight and dropped about 0.20" in my gauge. Models didn't show much. I'm expecting much of the action over the next week to pass south of me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian D Posted June 28, 2023 Share Posted June 28, 2023 More rain yesterday with 0.53" at the TH arpt, and 0.37' here in town. More rain moving through this morning with ~ 1/4" so far. 1.72" in town for the month is well behind the 4.23" avg. ~3" behind the curve for the year so far. Could be worse.
