Corn Sweat Summer Hits Chicago

Hot Girl Summer just got a sweaty upgrade—welcome to “Corn Sweat Summer.” Illinois’ cornfields are basically giant humidifiers, releasing billions of gallons daily via evapotranspiration, turning Chicago’s heat into a sticky, steamy nightmare. Thanks to June’s extra rain, this humidity surge is kicking in early, making heat indices creep toward 100 degrees. Even without corn in the city, the moisture’s coming for you—and maybe even sparking stronger storms. Summer’s still alive, pools are open, and the sun’s shining… just don’t forget your towel.
