It's been a warm summer, but the season could really sizzle within a few decades. An 'extreme heat belt' is expected to develop and Chicago will be within it according to a new study.
temperature outlooks suggest we may be around or below average overall through almost the end of August.The 8-14 day outlook has us "leaning below" average from next Wednesday through the following Tuesday. That takes us through Aug. 30.First Street Foundation
forecasts an "extreme heat belt" developing over the next few decades that will run from the Gulf Coast north through Chicago. The heat index in this region is expected to hit 125 degrees at least once a year by 2053. The National Weather Service identifies different "bands" or thresholds of dangerous temperatures associated with health impacts.
The study looked at the change expected in the amount of "dangerously hot days" expected over the next three decades. A dangerous day is a day with a heat index value over 100 degrees. Parts of southern Illinois could see on average more than half of summer days with heat index values over 100 degrees by the year 2053.
So the short range forecast may be cooler than average, but the longer range is a lot hotter for Illinois.that I have read and agree
