The heat this week could set records in the Chicago area, but forecasters say they haven’t issued any advisories yet because the humidity is expected to be relatively low.

The National Weather Service said high temperatures will close in on 100 degrees daily, usually between 2 and 4 p.m., until Aug. 26, 2020, when a cold front will move in, making weekend temperatures more bearable in northern Illinois.
