Chicago: The Human Oven Experiment
How Hot Did It Get In Chicago Today |
Is Chicago Trying to Become a New Sun?
I'm not sure if someone spiked the city's water supply with chili peppers or if we've accidentally stumbled upon a portal to the surface of Venus, but Chicago has officially transformed into a giant, open-air sauna. It’s like someone decided to turn up the thermostat on Earth and Chicago just happened to be the guinea pig.
QuickTip: Skip distractions — focus on the words.
I'm starting to question if the birds are even singing anymore. Probably too busy panting.
QuickTip: A careful read saves time later.
Survival Tips for the Chicago Heatwave
- Hydrate or Die-drate: Chug water like it's your job. Or your life. Same thing, really.
- Embrace Your Inner Ice Cube: Wear as little clothing as possible without getting arrested. And by "as little clothing as possible," I mean invest in a good quality fan.
- Find a Body of Water: Lakes, pools, oceans... any body of water will do. Just make sure it's not your neighbor's kiddie pool.
- Become a Nocturnal Creature: Sleep during the day, party at night. Just watch out for those pesky mosquitoes.
Tip: Absorb, don’t just glance.

Now, I'm no meteorologist, but even I know this heat is abnormal. It's like Mother Nature decided to have a personal vendetta against Chicagoans. Maybe she's still mad about the deep dish pizza.
Tip: Read in a quiet space for focus.
