Chicago has been spared excessive heat so far this summer but the city is no stranger to brutal heat.
. Heat advisories are issued here when the heat index hits 100 to 105 degrees for three consecutive days or two straight days with a heat index between 105 and 100 degrees or one day with a heat index peaking at 110 degrees or higher.
Chicago has been spared sizzling heat so far this summer, but we have seen it before. Officially, the all-time hottest high temperature was 105 degrees on July 24, 1934. That year Chicago's weather observations were taken at the University of Chicago. The city has actually been hotter. It hit 109 degrees on July 23, 1934, the hottest temperature ever recorded at a Chicago location. It occurred atChicago has hit 104 degrees three times.
Our model shows us spiking to 93 next Monday and staying in the 90s through the following Thursday. It has us coming close to hitting 100 for the first time since 2012. Please take this with a grain of salt though because I have seen the model hint at high heat at the end of its range only to end up much cooler than forecast in reality.
The even longer range temperature outlook from the Climate Prediction Center keeps us cooler than average overall for the end of July and start of August.
