If it isn't derailed on Saturday, this has the potential to get interesting. Even the hot summer of 2012 only managed an 8 day streak of 90+.

Looking back at previous significant 90 degree streaks for Chicago, a lot of them happened after the early 1940s, which is not surprising since that is when the official observation site moved farther inland.

Chicago Storm Posted July 4, 2020 Author Share Posted July 4, 2020 Obviously an OP run, but the consistency in the GFS showing almost wall to wall 90-100+ temps for the next two weeks is something. Can’t even recall that in 2012.There is a good amount of EPS and GEFS support for the ridge to continue flexing into the region, so it might be on to something to a degree..

There a disturbance moving through Thursday night, that if (probably will) timing changes on it, could make for a stormy day and hinder 90+ potential..

Powerball Posted July 4, 2020 Share Posted July 4, 2020 It's looking like there will be just enough flattening of the ridge next weekend to at least bring a temporary "cool down" (meaning sub-90*F+ temps) for the NE parts of the subforum. From what I recall, shortwaves like the one showing up on the models right now always end up breaking down the ridge more than projected in the mid/long range. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
