Heat and Air Quality Safety Tips

Hot and humid conditions will persist through Monday, with afternoon peak heat indices in the upper 90s / low 100s. Scattered thunderstorms may offer brief relief both Today and Saturday afternoons. After a somewhat cooler Sunday, the heat will back again Monday before it breaks for cooler weather into late week.

Scattered storms will be possible today and Saturday, mainly during the afternoon and early evening hours. Heavy downpours and lightning will be the primary risks. However, an isolated severe storm can’t be ruled out on Saturday, especially in Illinois.

An Air Quality Alert is in effect for portions of northwest Illinois through this evening due to unhealthy ozone levels and wildfire smoke. Consider limiting prolonged outdoor activity.
