Three days in a row here in the Chicago area with 100 plus temps. I heard on the news that this has only happened twice before and they have been keeping records since the early 1800's here! We had a number of deer on our street the other night and people have been putting out tubs of water for the wildlife. Also, for the first time in my town's history we have a TOTAL ban on watering. We are situated along the shore of Lake Michigan and get our water from there. The lake level has dropped and we need to be careful with our supply as many other towns purchase their water from us. Today we expect 103 or better, tomorrow perhaps 100 and then finally a break! But you all had Debby and sinkholes, so who's to complain?
