Chicago hasnt had a Top 10 warm August since 2010. Before that was 1995. Hmmm, every 5 yrs?
As long as it remains above average, I'm ok with that And you can't help but think when you see statistically 12 of the last 16 years above average with one spot on average and only 2 below, that something is up with our climate at least during the end of the summer. Some kind of pattern has changed.
Shoreline water temps in Chicago are nearing 80 degrees
EURO out to day 10 850mb
Oh and here are the GFS ensmbles

Remember how all those images backfired on you in June. I'd use caution this month again.
1st image, 10 days away. I see you're trying that again now. Looking too far for it.
2nd and 3rd images do you realize you're showing a 5 day average graphic that only has 3+ above normal in the plains, right? Can you say "seasonable" elsewhere.

Do you mean how early July was cool? Yeah, but the month still ended up above average

Yeah I know anything can happen after 10 days

That's in Celsius Cambium A 3C anomaly is not seasonable anywhere

Can't wait for the weekend.
Low 80s for us Sat/Sun which is seasonable. Until then, heat index near 110F on Thursday

What's the coldest the water has been during this time of year? Lake Michigan looks very nice for swimming in.
Yep, remember typhoon Nuri and November 2014? Was supposed to be warm instead was record breaking cold. Obviously this is not the same strength and track as Nuri though which was very odd. Hopefully it's short lived.

It may not even curve. We'll see. But Cambium is right, beyond 10 days it's basically a crap shoot.

Yes, your own map shows a small area of the country with 3+. The rest is seasonable. Or you might call it, seasonably warm. 1-2C is nothing to brag about for a 5 day anomaly. Look at the Northeast and Chicago on 2nd image...barely above 1.5C. Lol. Last image is 11-16 days out.
Yes, I would be around +1C, but the Central US (a good portion of 4 states) is at least 2-3+C above average. And in the 6-10 day more like 6 states. That's not a small area of the country. But yeah it's 10+ days so anything can happen and models can easily flip. I know this.
I'm not complaining about this evening seven day update either. Nothing super hot aside for the heat and especially the humidity on Thursday. Just not cool.
Btw, June and July combined are +2.3F above normal at Chicago/MDW and +2.1F at ORD. Can't complain about this summer.
