Chicago's Cool Streak Sets New Record
Chicago’s chilly temps have reached record-setting status.
With calendars still reading summer but the outdoors feeling much more like fall, the city has seen the earliest streak of temperature highs in the 50s since 1871, according to the National Weather Service.
The recent streak from Thursday through Saturday saw highs at 56, 55 and 59. The three-day chill marked only the 23rd time such a streak has occurred in the month of September.
The longest streak was six consecutive days in 1875 from Sept. 17-22.
