opened Tuesday, May 29, and what a perfect day it's been for kids who are newly freed from prison … er, rather, school.
The National Weather Service is reporting temperatures in Elmhurst hit the mid-80s Tuesday. While it's a veritable cold spell compared to the mid-90s of the past few days, by all standards it was a picture-perfect day.
Temperatures dipped into the 50s Tuesday night and a high of only 66 is predicted for Wednesday, but mostly sunny skies should make Wednesday quite pleasant.
Then, on Wednesday night, get ready for a real change as we say hello to the 40s again, followed by a Thursday high barely making it out of the 50s. Add to that a 60 percent chance of showers and Elmhurst's pools will most likely be empty. Rain continues on Friday, with a high of 61.
The weather looks better for the weekend—in fact Saturday and Sunday look darn near perfect—but that's too far off. We won't even go there.
