A heat advisory has been issued for most of the Chicago area Sunday, as temperatures will soar into the 90s and heat indices will climb above 100 degrees in areas away from Lake Michigan.
According to the National Weather Service, the “dangerous heat and humidity” led to the issuing of a heat advisory beginning at 1 p.m., taking effect in McHenry, DeKalb, Kane, DuPage, LaSalle, Kendall, Grundy, Will and Kankakee counties in Illinois, as well as southern Cook County.
Residents are urged to take frequent breaks indoors or in the shade, and to remain hydrated at all times.
