Hot today. At 4pm Chicago Executive Airport is clocking in at 94 degrees. Midway is at 92F, ORD and Rockford at 91F and down here at IKK I'm at 90F with a dew point of 75F
Good news is that Bastardi is saying that the Midwest will get very warm again after this coming week

When didn't I acknowledge it? I don't question the greenhouse effect. I question the model projections 50 years into the future for various regions including my own. When are you going to acknowledge that regional climate projections for 50 years into the future are fundamentally flawed? Unless you actually believe place like Chicago will resemble Phoenix or Las Vegas during the summer in 2070 with 60 days of 100F+ heat: Do you actually believe this??? .
As for it being " dealt with" what makes you think we can do anything to stop what is going on? Human civilization is a heat engine. We need energy to survive.
1pm partly sunny 87F IKK, 89F at both ORD and MDW
Nothing can stop change. Not even if i beamed every person and car off the planet. The planet has got hot and cold many times over the billions of years.
One of our hottest days yet here in northern AR ozarks. Reached 91 for a high (sorry didn't catch the dew point during the high temp). We cooled off quickly to the low 70's when a storm got near. Currently at 71f with a dew of 66. Looks like tomorrow will be the same so we will be doing some kayaking on the Buffalo Nat'l river.
Just thinking about this again, and we're actually not in a borderline Dfb/Dfc zone.
We're fully Dfb. 100%.
Dfc which is subarctic begins hundreds of km north of here.
Interesting tidbit: the warmest official weather station in all of Canada (east west north south) yesterday was Moosonee, Ontario. It got to 33.9C or 93F.
It's a tiny former fur trading post on James Bay in the Hudson Bay lowlands.

Tomorrow's temperature map for the Chicago area
Not nearly as cool as what the models were forecasting last week for this upcoming week.
and the GFS now in line with the CFS and Euro showing widespread warmth in the 6-10 day. Look at Europe over the next 10 days too. Wow what a reversal in temps.
HAHA, what a hyper-local viewpoint that graphic is. How about posting an ALASKA chart that shows the complete runaway warming occurring there or most of Russia. Time to face the facts.

Thankfully Alaska only has 400,000 people and NYC has 20 million. What was going on in Alaska from the 1930s to the 1990s? "Runaway cooling"?
Five years ago, headlines read "Frozen Alaska Bucking Global Warming Trend I think at least some of the temperature fluctuations in Alaska is correlated with the PDO phases (article states this).
Globally last nine years relative to the 30 year base period. Summer and annual temps. If anything Alaska is warming slower in the summer than most of the CONUS other than the Midwest/Southeast which has very little warming in the summer. As for Russia most of the warming is in Southwestern part around the Black and Caspian Seas. Large chunk of Siberia has warmed during the summer but has not changed much on an annual basis over the last 9 years.
This weekend will be below normal in Chicago but thankfully there will be "runaway warming" for much of the next 2 weeks. Looks like temps will be close to 90 degrees for much of next week. Hopefully July will be above normal which imo is MUCH needed after 6 of the last 8 months here were below normal in temps, below normal in sunshine, above normal in precipitation
