Cook County Heat Wave Warning | Chicago News

Cook County’s sweltering heat wave is here to stay, with dangerously high temps expected through Thursday night—officials warn this sudden blast could feel like a summer punch to the gut. With heat indexes hitting 100-110°F and actual temps in the low 90s, residents are scrambling for relief at the lakefront, parks, and even fire hydrants. The National Weather Service has extended the heat advisory, and while storms may bring some respite by Thursday night, now’s the time to hydrate, seek shade, and avoid peak heat. Cooling centers are open across the city—libraries, parks, colleges—and Salvation Army locations are stepping in too. This isn’t your average summer heat; it’s a reminder to check on neighbors and stay informed. Stay cool, stay safe.
