Friday's bright sunshine, aided by gusty west winds that overwhelmed any attempt by the cool air hovering over the lake to surge ashore, produced the city's warmest temperature readings of June. Temperatures peaked at 80 degrees at Midway Airport for only the sixth time this year-equal to the number of 80-degree days by this date a year ago, but only half the 12 considered average.
Alaska has had more warm weather this June than the Chicago area. Fairbanks has recorded highs of 70 degrees or higher every day so far this month while Chicago has only been able to muster two.
Frost advisories for the North Woods
Temperatures will drop into the 30s Saturday morning across portions of the upper Midwest from northern Minnesota to far northern Wisconsin and Upper Michigan, where rare June frost and freeze advisories were issued. Another chilly night is expected Saturday night with lows near 40 degrees.
