A Rare Chilly July Morning Calls for Your Favorite Layers

Full transcript

Good morning, Chicago. You might want to do a double-take at the thermometer today. While we are starting out at a comfortable seventy degrees, the mercury is actually set to drop significantly throughout the day, bottoming out with a high of only twenty-one degrees. It is an unusual twist for July, so you will definitely want to swap those summer shorts for a heavy winter coat and gloves before you head out. You can leave the umbrella at home since there is only a seven percent chance of rain, but keep your sunglasses handy for that peak UV level of eight. If you are waiting for a train on an exposed L platform, prepare for that eleven mile per hour wind to feel much sharper as the temperatures tumble.
