And our hot, humid summer continues. Highs will again cross 90 degrees and humidities remain high enough that it'll feel more like New Orleans out side than Chicago. Be on the look out for storms popping up here and there across the area. While the heat index closes in on 100 once more, there's a 60 percent chance of scattered thunderstorms that could provide some (very) temporary heat relief. The air remains thick and heavy as we head into the evening with lows in the upper 70s.
