Athens, GA has now had 68 days of 90°F temperatures this summer, including 31 days of 95°F temperatures, and three days of 100°F temperatures. The first day of 90°F temperatures this summer was May 11, and the hottest temperature was 100°F on three different days: June 22, August 4 and August 5.
Make that seven days of 90°F temperatures for Pittsburgh this summer, and four days of 90°F temperatures for Cleveland. Oddly, Columbus has been shut out of this latest quasi-heat wave thus far, with a maximum temperature of only 88°F in the last seven days.
today and tomorrow will make it 11 for ORD and 18 for MDW. Normal is 17 and 23. Still better than last year (even though this summer was actually cooler).

If Pittsburgh reaches 90°F today, then I predict it'll end up with a perfectly "normal" summer by the time this warm/hot period ends. Today would make it eight days, and the normal for a year is 10. Yesterday the high temperature was 89°F, though, so despite having seven days of 90°F temperatures so far, there's still no official heat wave, because there hasn't been more than two 90°F days in a row. Nonetheless, 2015 has already surpassed 2013, and surpassed the "summer" of 2014 the moment the mercury first reached 90°F this year.
The 11AM temperature observation in Pittsburgh today is 80°F.
