Summer Returns for APWA Congress

Last summer’s scorcher is a distant memory as cool and comfortable conditions have dominated this summer in the Central US.  The improvement has been thanks to a persistent trough of low pressure nudging southward from the Great Lakes.

Unfortunately, the weather pattern is about to remember what season it is, as a late August ridge of high pressure quickly builds across the nation’s mid-section.  This transition is expected to heat Chicago’s highs into the upper 80’s and low 90’s just in time for the Best Show in Public Works.  Of course, McCormick Place will always be cool for education sessions and the expo.

There could be a little rainy relief Tuesday into Wednesday, but at this point any showers or thunderstorms look few and far between.  Check out forecast below as you prepare for a fun and informative time with all your APWA colleagues in Chicago.

Don’t forget to plan some time with Weather or Not’s own Sara Croke.  She’s looking forward to catching up with you and hearing how our team of meteorologists can continue helping you save money and improve safety.
