Does Chicago have microclimates?
I dunno. It rained here (and still is a bit), but it was light, warm, summery rain and not monsoon-levels.
eta: I'm about 7-ish miles due west of the Loop. Not far, but far enough, I guess.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

The northwest corner of my city got pounded this afternoon with a stationary thunderstorm. Nearly 2 inches in just over an hour. Which means my flower buckets might be a bit bedraggled.
It barely sprinkled 4 miles away. But I could hear the thunder!
The Tribune mentioned one specific neighborhood the severe thunderstorm was in. (I forget what it was. Logan Square?)
I did not move here for the weather, but realized when I walked outside today what a lovely fringe benefit it was.
You know, if I could ever remember your real name, I could call you up and invite you to lunch.
And you called Lee lame?

It's typical summer weather here in DC. Hot and humid, with a possibility of thunderstorms.
I remember standing on Loyola Beach watching it storm on the southside.
(We were in sun.)
Meanwhile, it's down to 78 here.
